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 temperatures.

To Adjust the Thermostat

Safety Instructions

(Appearance may vary)

Pull the OVEN CONTROL knob off the range and look at the back side. To make an adjustment, loosen (approximately one turn), but do not completely remove, the two screws on the back of the knob.

With the back of the knob facing you, hold the outer edge of the knob with one hand and turn the front of the knob with the other hand.

To raise the oven temperature, move the top screw toward the right. You’ll hear a click for each notch you move the knob.

To lower the temperature, move the top screw toward the left.

Each click will change the oven temperature approximately 10°F. (Range is ± 60°F. from the arrow.) We suggest that you make the adjustment one click from the original setting and check oven performance before making any additional adjustments.

After the adjustment is made, retighten screws so they are snug, but be careful not to overtighten.

Re-install knob on range and check performance.

The type of margarine will affect baking performance!

Most recipes for baking have been developed using high fat products such as butter or margarine (80% fat). If you decrease the fat, the recipe may not give the same results as with a higher fat product.

Recipe failure can result if cakes, pies, pastries, cookies or candies are made with low fat spreads. The lower the fat content of a spread product, the more noticeable these differences become.

Federal standards require products labeled “margarine” to contain at least 80% fat by weight. Low fat spreads, on the other hand, contain less fat and more water. The high moisture content of these spreads affects the texture and flavor of baked goods. For best results with your old favorite recipes, use margarine, butter or stick spreads containing at least 70% vegetable oil.
