Thermostat adjustment

The temperature in the oven has been preset at the factory. When first using the oven, be sure to follow recipe times and temperatures. If you think the oven is too hot or too cool, the temperature in the oven can be adjusted. Before adjusting, test a recipe by using a temperature setting that is higher or lower than the recommended temperature. The baking results should help you to decide how much of an adjustment is needed.

The oven temperature can be adjusted ±35°F (±19°C ).

How to adjust the oven temperature

1. Press BAKE and the 0 number pad at the same time for 3 seconds.

The display will show AdJ 0.

2. Enter the adjustment you want, eg. 20°F, by using the number pads.

You can adjust the temperature to lower than the factory setting by pressing the BAKE pad.

3. Press the SET/START pad.

This adjustment will not affect the broiling or the self-cleaning temperatures. The adjustment will be retained in memory after a power failure.
