This broil shield is the oven's rear cavity panel that protects the oven back and nearby components from direct broiler heat. It helps channel heat for safer broiling and prevents heat damage to internal parts. What it does:

• Deflects direct broiler heat away from the oven back wall and components
• Helps maintain proper broiling performance by directing heat toward food
• Reduces risk of heat-related damage, discoloration, or premature wear on internal oven parts
• Limits grease and debris contact with sensitive rear components

• Disconnect power (and gas supply on gas ovens) before servicing the oven
• Remove oven racks and, if required, the broil element to access the shield
• Handle edges carefully—metal parts can be sharp
• Keep hardware removed during disassembly; screw locations for reassembly
