Do not latch the oven door during broiling. The latch is used for self-cleaning only.
Leave the door open to the broil
stop position. The door stays open
by itself, yet the proper temperature
is maintained in the oven.
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.)
The oven has 7 shelf positions.
How to Set the Oven for Broiling
Place the meat or fish on the broiler
grid in the broiler pan.
Follow suggested shelf positions in
the Broiling Guide.
If your range is connected to 208 volts, rare steaks
may be broiled by preheating the broiler and
positioning the oven shelf one position higher.
Use LO Broil to cook foods such as
poultry or thick cuts of meat thoroughly
without over-browning them.
