Adjusting the oven temperature control

Although your new oven is properly adjusted to provide accurate temperatures, it may cook faster or slower than your old oven.

If, after using the oven for a period of time, you are not satisfied with the baking/roasting results, you can change the offset tempera- ture by following these steps:

1. Press and hold Bake pad for five seconds.

The display will show the current offset temperature, for example “O”,if you have not previously adjusted the temperature.

2. Set new offset temperature.

Press A to raise the temperature or V to lower the temperature in 10°F amounts. You can set the temperature change to as low as -30°F or as high as +3O”F. A minus (-) sign will appear before the number when decreasing the tempera- ture setting to show the oven will be cooler by the displayed amount. There is no sign in front of the number when increasing the temperature setting.

3. Enter the adjustment.

NOTE: DO NOT measure oven temperature with a thermometer. Opening the oven door will lower the oven temperature and give you an inaccurate reading. Also, the ther- mometer temperature reading will change as your oven cycles.

How to determine the amount of adjustment needed

The chart at the right tells you how much to adjust the offset temperature to get the desired cooking results. You can determine cooking results by the amount of browning, moistness, and rising times for baked foods.
