How to Set the Upper and Lower Ovens for Broiling
Close the doors. Always broil with
the doors closed.
Place the meat or fish on a broiler grid
in a broiler pan.
Follow suggested rack positions
in the Broiling Guide.
Touch the BROIL HI/LO pad once
for HI Broil.
To change to LO Broil, touch
the BROIL HI/LO pad again.
Use LO Broil to cook foods such as poultry
or thick cuts of meat thoroughly without
over-browning them.
Touch the START pad.
When broiling is finished,
touch the CLEAR/OFF pad.
NOTE: Broil and self-clean settings will not
work if the temperature probe is plugged in.
The size, weight, thickness, starting temperature and your preference of doneness will affect broiling times.
This guide is based on meats at refrigerator temperature.
† The U.S. Department of Agriculture says “Rare beef is popular, but you should know that cooking it to only 140°F means some food poisoning organisms may survive.”
(Source: Safe Food Book. Your Kitchen Guide. USDA Rev. June 1985.)
Close the doors. Always broil with
the doors closed.
If your oven is connected to 208 volts,
rare steaks may be broiled by preheating
the broiler and positioning the oven rack
one position higher.
Using the upper and lower ovens.
