This mode is best for meats, fish and poultry up to 1” thick. Broiling is a method of cooking
tender cuts of meat by direct heat under the broil burner of the oven. The high heat cooks
quickly and gives a rich, brown outer appearance. The oven can be programmed to broil at
any temperature from 300°F to 550°F with a default temperature of 550°F.
broiling tips:
• For optimum browning, preheat the broil burner for 2 minutes.
• Broil one side until the food is browned; turn and cook on the second side. Season and
serve.
• Always pull the rack out to the "stop" position before turning or removing food.
• Always use the broiler pan and its grid when broiling. It allows the dripping grease to be
kept away from the high heat of the broil burner (see Figure 1).
• DO NOT use the broil pan without the insert. DO NOT cover the broil pan insert with
foil. The exposed grease could catch fire. DO NOT use the roasting rack when broiling.

Should an oven fire occur, keep the oven door closed and turn off the
oven. If the fire continues, throw baking soda on the fire or use a fire extinguisher.
DO NOT put water or flour on the fire. Flour may be explosive and water can cause a
grease fire to spread and cause personal injury.
