USING YOUR RANGE

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 temperature calibration by following the steps below:

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

1.Press the Bake pad. The Bake indicator light will flash.

2.Press the “increase” () pad and set the oven temperature at 550°F.

3.Before Bake stops flashing, press and hold the Bake pad until the

2-digit display appears.

4.Release the Bake pad. The display will show the current offset temperature, for example “00,” if the temperature has not been previously adjusted.

5.Set the new offset temperature. Press either the “increase” () or the “decrease” () pad to raise or lower the temperature in 5°F amounts. You can set the temperature as low as -35°F cooler or as high as +35°F hotter. A minus (-) sign will appear before the number when decreasing the temperature 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.

6.After making the desired adjustment, press the Off/Cancel pad to complete the entry of the new offset temperature.

NOTE: All Bake/Roast temperatures will now be increased or decreased by the new offset temperature until a new oven temperature is entered. For example, if 10°F is entered as the new offset tempera- ture, the temperature will read 350°F, but will actually heat to 360°F, etc. This does not affect Broil or Clean cycles.
