This “pan” is left in place when broiling. I believe its purpose is to both shield to protect the ceiling of the oven from grease splatters and to also reflect the heat down onto the meat or other foods that are being broiled. I have a similar setup in my GE oven and it never requires cleaning. Any grease that splatters onto it is burnt off during the extreme heat generated during the broiling process.

It's called the broiler reflector. It is made of aluminized steel. |

Older Frigidaire ranges said to pullout the surface units guide to protect the control knobs from the heat generated by the broiler element. |
