Setting Broil
Use to cook meats that require direct exposure to
radiant heat for optimum browning results. Position
the rack as suggested in Table 3.
NOTE
Keep the oven door closed when broiling. The
escaping heat could damage appliance knobs and
controls.
To set Broil:
1. Arrange the oven rack while oven is still cool.
2. Turn the oven temp knob to the Broil position
(Figure 14). For optimum results, preheat broil
for 10 minutes before adding food.
3. Place the insert on the broil pan (if equipped),
then place the food on the broil pan insert (if
using a broiler pan and insert). To purchase a
broiling pan and insert, visit frigidaire.com
4. Place the broiler pan and insert on the oven
rack. Center the broiler pan directly under the
broiler element. Broil on one side until food is
browned. Always pull the oven rack out to the
stop position before turning or removing food.
Turn and broil food on the second side.
5. To cancel the broiling function, turn the oven
temp knob to the OFF position.
CAUTION
Always use pot holders or oven mitts when using
the oven. When cooking, the oven interior, oven
racks, and cooktop will become very hot which
can cause burns.

WARNING
Should an oven fire occur, keep oven door closed
and turn o the oven. If the fire continues, throw
baking soda on the fire or use a fire extinguisher.
Do not put water or flour on the fire. Flour may
be explosive and water can cause a grease fire to
spread and cause personal injury.
The broiler pan and the 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.

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). All cook
times shown are after 2 minutes of preheating.
