USING YOUR RANGE

Recommended pan positions are numbered from bottom (0) to top (2) (see “Broiler pan and grid” earlier in
this section.) For best results, place food 3 inches or more from the broil burner. You should rotate the
broiler pan back to the front at the same time you turn the foods.

APPROXIMATE TIME

(MINUTES)

Times are guidelines only and may need to be adjusted to individual tastes.

Hot air and moisture escape from the oven through a
vent that is near the middle of the backguard. The vent
lets air circulate properly. Be careful not to block the
vent, or you will get poor baking/roasting results.
NOTE: Never store plastics, paper, or other items
that could melt or burn near the oven vent, or any of
the surface burners.
