Setting Broil
Use the Broil feature to cook meats that require direct exposure
to radiant heat for optimum browning results.
Position the rack as suggested in table 2. (See Figure 4)
Should an oven fire occur, close the oven door
and turn the oven off. If the fire continues, use a Class B/C fire
extinguisher. Do not put water or flour on fire. Flour may be
explosive. The broiler pan and insert allow grease to drain and
be kept away from the high heat of the broiler. Do not use the
pan without the insert. Do not cover the insert with aluminum
foil; the exposed grease could ignite.
Always use pot holders or oven mitts when using
the oven. When cooking the oven interior and oven racks will
become very hot which can cause burns. Always pull the rack
out to the stop position before turning or removing food.
Do not cover the broil pan insert with aluminum
foil. The exposed grease could catch fire. Do not use a roasting
rack when broiling
To set Broil:
1. Arrange the oven racks when cool.
2. Press Broil. The display will show

3. Press for HI broil or for LO broil. Most foods may
be broiled at the HI broil setting. Select the LO broil setting
to avoid excess browning or drying of foods that should be
cooked to the well-done stage.
4. For optimum browning results, preheat the oven for 2
minutes before adding food.
5. Place the insert on the broil pan, then place the food on the
broil pan insert.
6. Place the broiler pan and insert on the oven rack. Broil with
the oven door closed.
7. Broil on one side until food is browned. Turn and broil food
on second side.
8. When finished broiling or to cancel press .
Important: If a broiler pan and insert are not supplied with this
appliance, they may be purchased from Sears. Call 1-844-553-

The U.S. Department of Agriculture states, “Rare fresh beef is popular, but you should know that cooking it to only 140°F (60°C) means some food
poisoning organisms may survive.” (Source: Safe Food Book, Your Kitchen Guide, USDA Rev. June 1985.) **The lowest temperature recommended by the USDA is
145°F (63°C) for medium rare fresh beef. For well done 170°F (77ºC). NOTE: Broiling will produce some smoke. If smoke is excessive, place the food further away
from the broil element. Always watch food carefully to prevent burning.
