Oven Vent
A. Oven vent
The oven vent releases hot air and moisture from the oven, and 
should not be blocked or covered. Blocking or covering the oven 
vent will cause poor air circulation, affecting cooking and 
cleaning results. Do not set plastics, paper or other items that 
could melt or burn near the oven vent.
Baking and Roasting
Before baking and roasting, position the racks according to the 
“Positioning Racks and Bakeware” section. When roasting, it is 
not necessary to wait for the oven to preheat before putting food 
in, unless recommended in the recipe.
To Bake or Roast:
1. Push in and turn the oven control knob to the desired 
temperature setting. The OVEN HEATING light will turn on 
and remain on until the oven reaches the set temperature.
2. Place food in oven. The bake element will turn on and off to 
maintain cooking temperature. The OVEN HEATING light will 
turn on and off with the element.
3. Turn oven control knob to OFF when finished.
Broiling
Broiling uses direct radiant heat to cook food. Changing the 
temperature when broiling allows more precise control. The lower 
the temperature, the slower the cooking. Thicker cuts and 
unevenly shaped pieces of meat, fish and poultry may cook 
better at lower broiling temperatures.
For best results, use a broiler pan and grid (provided on some 
models). They are designed to drain juices and help avoid 
spatter and smoke.
If you would like to purchase a broiler pan, one may be 
ordered. See “Assistance or Service” section to order. Ask for 
Part Number 4396923.
For proper draining, do not cover the grid with foil. The 
bottom of the pan may be lined with aluminum foil for easier 
cleaning.
Trim excess fat to reduce spattering. Slit the remaining fat on 
the edges to avoid curling.
Pull out oven rack to stop position before turning or removing 
food. Use tongs to turn food to avoid the loss of juices. Very 
thin cuts of fish, poultry or meat may not need to be turned.
After broiling, remove the pan from the oven when removing 
the food. Drippings will bake on the pan if left in the heated 
oven, making cleaning more difficult.
Before broiling, position rack according to the Broiling Chart. It is 
not necessary to preheat the oven before putting food in unless 
recommended in the recipe. Position food on grid in the broiler 
pan, then place it in the center of the oven rack. Close the door.
To Broil:
1. Push in and turn oven control knob to BROIL HI or turn to 
BROIL LO to broil at a lower temperature.
2. After broiling, turn the oven control knob to OFF.
BROILING CHART
For best results, place food 3" (7 cm) or more from the broil 
element. Times are guidelines only and may need to be adjusted 
for individual foods and tastes. Recommended rack positions are 
numbered from the bottom (1) to the top (5). For diagram, see the 
“Positioning Racks and Bakeware” section.
*Place up to 12 patties, equally spaced, on broiler grid.
