Custom broil (lower oven) . If food is cooking too fast, turn the Oven Temperature Control counterclockwise until the Oven ON Signal Light goes off. . If you want the food to broil slower from the start, set the Oven Temperature Control between 150� and 325°F (65.5� and 162.7�C). The lower the temperature, the slower the cooking. Broiling tips 1 Use the broiler pan and grid for broiling. They are designed to dram excess liquid and fat away from the cooking surface to help prevent spatter, smoke or fire. 1 Refer to a broiling chart in a reliable cookbook for correct broiling times. 1 After broiling, remove the broiler pan from the oven when you remove the food. Drippings will bake on the pan if it is left in the heated oven.

1. Position the rack before turning on the oven. The oven rack should be positioned so that the surface of the food is at least 3 inches (7.4 cm) away from the broil element. Refer to a rack placement chart and broiling chart in a reliable cookbook for recommended rack positions and broiling times. 2. Place food on grid on the broiler pan and place in the center of the oven rack. Turn the pan so that the long side is parallel to the oven door for the best heat distribution. 3. Close the door to the Broil Stop position (open about 6 inches, 15.2 cm). The door will stay open by itself. NOTE: The door must be partly open whenever the oven is used to broil. Leaving the door open allows the oven to maintain proper temperatures. Door can remain closed during broiling, however results may differ.

Fire Hazard . Place meat the correct distance from the element. Meat placed too close to the element may spatter, smoke, burn or catch fire during broiling. . To ensure adequate grease drainage, do not use cookie sheets or similar pans for broiling. Also, covering the broiler grid with foil is not recommended. Poor drainage of grease may result in fire. If foil is used, cut slits in foil to correspond with all openings in broiler grid. Grease can then drain away and cool in pan.
