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 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 incorrect read- ing. Also, the thermometer temperature reading will change as your oven cycles.
