Broil (Upper Oven)
The 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.
CaUTiON
y DO nOt use a broiler pan without a grid. Oil can cause a
grease fire.
y DO nOt cover the grid and broiler pan with aluminum foil.
Doing so will cause a fire.
y Always use a broiler pan and grid for excess fat and grease
drainage. This will help to reduce splatter, smoke, and flare-
ups.
y 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, you should consider replacing
it to reduce the amount of smoke you experience during
broiling.
NOTE
y Use a m broil to broil foods such as poultry and thick cuts of
meat.
y Remove the pan from the oven to cool down for easy cleaning.
y 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 B in the upper oven, use the offset
rack provided for better cooking results.
