Adjusting Oven Temperature

(some models)

The temperature in the oven has been set 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.

To Adjust Oven Temperature:

1.Check to be sure the Thermostat Control knob is in the OFF position.

2.Pull Thermostat Control knob straight off the shaft.

3.On the back of the knob, there is a series of 5 to 7 small grooves. Note the position of the pointer (located in the middle groove). Loosen the two screws on the back of the knob. Note: If the knob does not have 2 screws, it is not adjustable.

4.To increase or decrease the temperature, move the pointer in the desired direction according to the "raise - lower" (some models) arrow, or "hotter - cooler" (some models) arrow. The temperature can be adjusted in increments as indicated on the back of the knob.

5.When the desired adjustment is reached, tighten both screws.

6.To replace the knob, line up the flat sides of both the knob and the shaft. Push the knob into place. DO NOT force the Thermostat Control knob onto the shaft or you may damage the back of the knob.

Note: Once an adjustment is made, the OFF position will vary from the reference mark on the backguard depending on the amount of adjustment.
