Oven temperature control adjustment

Your range is calibrated at the factory for proper temperature. Due to individual variances and preferences, it may be necessary to adjust ovens once they have been installed.

When first using the oven, follow recipe times and temperatures. Before adjusting oven baking temperature, test a recipe, such as ready-to-bake biscuits, by setting oven temperature higher or lower than the suggested temperature. The baking results should help you to decide how much of a temperature adjustment is required.

An accurate digital thermometer is necessary to calibrate the oven. Store purchased oven thermometers may not accurately measure oven temperature. Oven temperature can be increased or decreased by 35°F. To avoid over adjusting the oven, only adjust the temperature by 5°F each time.

NOTE: DO NOT place aluminum foil on racks and oven bottom as this will alter oven performance. Check for blocked heat vents. If it still appears the oven is not performing as expected, a calibration may be done.

1.Press BAKE pad.

2.Using the digit pads, enter “500”.

3.Press and hold BAKE pad for approximately 3 seconds.

4.A double digit offset temperature will display. Factory default is normally 0The e degrees.

Press BAKE key to adjust the temperature change in 5° increments.

Temperature will wrap around from positive to negative numbers.

When temperature is adjusted to a cooler setting, a minus sign (-) will display with the offset temperature.

5.To set the temperature change, press START pad. To cancel the change, press CANCEL pad.

Offset temperature change will be retained through a power failure.

Service codes and tones

The electronic oven control is equipped with a self-diagnostic system.

The self-diagnostic system alerts you if there is an error or problem with the unit. If electronic range control sounds a series of short, rapid beeps for over 16 seconds and display shows an F-code, record the F-code shown. Some F-codes can be cleared by pressing cancel or disconnecting power to the range for at least 3 minutes. If the code continues to reoccur disconnect electrical supply to range and contact an authorized servicer.
