Adjust the oven thermostat—Do it yourself!

You may find that your new oven cooks differently than the one it replaced. Use your new oven for a few weeks to become more familiar with it. If you still think your new oven is too hot or too cold, you can adjust the thermostat yourself.

Do not use thermometers, such as those found in grocery stores, to check the temperature setting of your oven. These thermometers may vary 20–40 degrees.

NOTE: This adjustment will not affect the broiling or the self-cleaning (on some models) temperatures. The adjustment will be retained in memory after a power failure.

How to Adjust the Thermostat (on models with pads only)

Touch the BAKE and BROIL HI/LO pads at the same time for 3 seconds until the display shows SF.

Touch the BAKE pad. A two digit number shows in the display.

Touch BAKE once to decrease (–) the oven temperature, or twice to increase (+).

The oven temperature can be adjusted up as much as 35°F. or down as much as 35°F.

To adjust the temperature on models with number pads, touch the number pads the same way you read them. For example, to change the oven temperature 15°F., touch

1and 5.

To adjust the temperature on models with

+and pads, touch the INCREASE pad to increase the temperature in one degree increments.

Touch the DECREASE pad to decrease the temperature in one degree increments.

When you have made the adjustment, touch the START pad to go back to the time of day display. Use your oven as you would normally.

NOTE: This adjustment will not affect the broiling or self-cleaning temperatures. It will be retained in memory after a power failure.

Pull the OVEN CONTROL knob off the shaft, look at the back of the knob and note the current setting before making any adjustment. The knob is factory set with the top screw directly under the pointer.
