OVEN CONTROLS
Important notes:
Broil Auto Shut Off: If the oven door is left open for more than one minute during Broil the control will beep. If door is
not closed it will turn off Broil after another 30 seconds.
Always arrange oven racks when the oven is cool.
For best results when broiling, use a broil pan with broil pan insert designed to drain the fat from the food and help
avoid spatter and reduce smoking.
When broiling, always pull the oven rack out to the stop position before turning or removing food.
If a broiler pan and insert are not supplied with this appliance they may be purchased from frigidaire.com.

* The U.S. Department of Agriculture states, “Rare fresh beef is popular, but you should know that cooking it to only 140°F
(60°C) means some food poisoning organisms may survive.” (Source: Safe Food Book, Your Kitchen Guide) The lowest tem-
perature recommended by the USDA is 145°F (63°C) for medium rare fresh beef. For well done 170°F (77ºC).
**Use the offset or half-racks (if available) only in the top position,
NOTE: Broiling is direct heat cooking and will produce some smoke. If smoke is excessive, place food further away from ele-
ment. Always watch foods carefully to prevent burning.
