USING YOUR RANGE

Saving energy

•To avoid loss of heat, open the oven door as little as possible.

•Use a timer to keep track of cooking time.

•Plan your meals for the most efficient use of the oven by cooking more than one food at a time, or baking while the oven is still hot after cooking a meal.

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 you are not satisfied with the baking/roasting results, you can change the offset temperature by following the steps below.

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.

1. Press and hold BAKE for

5 seconds.

The display will show the current offset temperature, for example “0,” if you have not previously adjusted the temperature.

Press ▲ to raise the temperature or ▼ to lower the temperature in 10°F amounts. You can set the temperature change to as low as -30°F or as high as +30°F.
