Broiler Operation
33
To set the oven to Broil:
1. Place the broiler pan insert on the broiler pan. Then place the food on the broiler pan insert.
2. Arrange the interior oven rack and place the broiler pan on the rack. Be sure to center the
broiler pan and position directly under the broil burner. If preheating the broil burner first,
position the broiler pan after the broil burner is preheated.
3. Turn selector knob to Broil.
The oven indicator light will remain on until the selector knob is turned to the off position or the
temperature control cycles off.
Broiling guidelines
Choose a suitable shelf position. To ensure that meat is cooked through rather than just browned
on the outside, broil thick pieces of meat and poultry on shelf positions 2 or 3. Use shelf position 4
for thinner items that need less cooking time like steaks, chops, or hamburger patties.
When finishing off meals by browning the top under the broiler, use metal or glass-ceramic
bakeware. Do not use heatproof glass or earthenware, as these cannot withstand the intense heat
of the broiler.
Center the item in the oven, so that it is directly under the broiler.
