Back of Lower Oven Knob

(Appearance may vary.)

28

Pull the OVEN CONTROLknob off the range and look at the back side. To makean adjustment, loosen (approximately one turn), but do not completely remove,the two screws on the back of the knob.

With the back of the knob facing you, hold the outer edge of the knob with one hand and turn the front of the knob with the other hand.

To raisethe oven temperature, move the top screw toward the right. You’ll hear a click for each notch you move the knob.

To lower the temperature, move the top screw toward the left.

Each click will change the oven temperature approximately 10°F.(Rangeis ± 60°F. from the arrow.) We suggest that you make the adjustment one click from the original setting and check oven performancebefore making any additionaladjustments.

After the adjustment is made, retighten screws so they are snug, but be careful not to overtighten.

Re-install knob on range and check performance.
