OPERATION

Your oven is designed for closed-door broiling. Broil 

uses an intense heat radiation from the upper gas 

burner.
The Broil function works best when broiling thin, 

tender cuts of meat (1" or less), poultry or fish.

 

•

Do not use a broiler pan without a grid. The oil 

can cause a grease fire.

 

•

Do not cover the grid and broiler pan with 

aluminum foil. Doing so will cause a fire.

 

•

Always use a broiler pan and grid for excess fat 

and grease drainage. This will help to reduce 

splatter, smoke, and flare-ups.

 

•

Never use a broiler pan that is not thoroughly 

cleaned and at room temperature. If your 

broiler pan is damaged, warped, or has heavy 

permanent soiling, consider replacing it to 

reduce the amount of smoke you experience 

during broiling.

 

•

Use Lo

 broil to broil foods such as poultry and 

thick cuts of meat.

 

•

Remove the pan from the oven to cool down for 

easy cleaning.

 

•

For best results, use a pan designed for 

broiling, as shown below. The broiler pan will 

catch grease spills and the grid will help prevent 

grease splatters.

When broiling on rack position 

2 in the upper oven, 

use the offset rack provided for better cooking results.

Take care when sliding the offset rack in and out. 

It lies lower in the cavity and passes closer to hot 

surfaces that can cause burns. Always wear oven 

mitts when handling racks.

Touch 

Broil once for Hi and twice for Lo.

Touch 

Start.

Allow the broiler to preheat for five minutes.

Place food in the upper oven.

Close the oven door. The oven door must be 

closed during broiling.

When using your broiler, the temperature inside 

the oven is extremely hot. Take caution to avoid 

possible burns by:

 

•

Keeping the door closed when broiling

 

•

Always wearing oven mitts when inserting/

removing food items

Improper use of the broiler may result in 

excessive smoke or a grease fire. Improper use 

conditions include, but are not limited to:

 

•

Broiling on offset rack in position 2.

 

•

Setting the broiler to a higher power level than 

recommended.

 

•

Using dirty/greasy broiler pans.

 

•

Broiling beyond recommended cooking times.

 

•

This range is designed for closed-door broiling.

Close the door to set the Broil function. If the 

door is open, the Broil function cannot be set 

and 

door appears on the display. Close the 

door and reset the Broil function. Opening the 

door turns off the broil burner during broiling. 

If the door is opened during broiling, the broil 

burner turns off after five seconds. The broiler 

turns back on automatically once the door is 

closed.

When broiling is finished, touch 

Off.

During any Broil function, it is normal for the 

broiler to cycle on and off. The igniter for the broil 

burner on the ceiling of the oven glows orange 

periodically during normal broil operation.
