To Bake
1. Arrange oven racks while the oven is still cool. See "Arranging Oven Racks" above.
2. Turn the Temperature Control Knob to the desired oven temperature. When the oven is
first turned on, the oven indicator light below the Temperature Control Knob will glow.
3. Preheat the oven for 10 to 12 minutes before baking. Preheating is not necessary when
roasting, cooking casseroles or broiling most foods. When the desired temperature is
reached, the oven indicator light will go out. The light will then go on and off as the
element cycles on and off to maintain the desired temperature.
4. When cooking is finished, turn the Temperature Control Knob to OFF.
To Broil
1. Arrange oven rack while oven is still cool. For rare meats, position the broiler pan closer to
the element (upper position). For well-done foods such as chicken, lobster tails or thick cuts
of meat, position the pan further from the element (to a lower position).
2. Turn the Temperature Control Knob to BROIL. To sear rare steaks, allow the element to
become red-hot—about 2 minutes—before placing food in oven.
3. Place the grid on the left oven broiler pan, and then place the meat on the grid. DO NOT
use the broiler pan without the grid or cover the grid with aluminum foil. The exposed fat
could ignite.
4. Place the side oven broiler pan on the oven rack. Close the oven door to the Broil Stop
position while broiling (door opened about 2 inches).
5. Broil on one side until food is browned; turn and cook on the other side. Season and serve.
Note: Always pull the rack out to the stop position before turning or removing food.
6. When broiling is finished, turn the Temperature Control Knob to OFF.
Should an oven fire occur, close the oven door and turn off 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.
