Adjusting Oven Temperatures

Your appliance has been factory calibrated and tested to ensure accurate baking temperatures. For the first few uses, follow your recipe times and temperature recommendations carefully. If you think the oven is cooking too hot or too cool for your recipe times, you may adjust the control so the oven cooks hotter or cooler than the oven temperature displayed.

The oven temperature may be increased as much as +35°F (+19°C) or decreased -35°F (-19°C) from the factory calibrated settings.

To increase (+) or decrease (-) the oven temperature by 20°F:

1.Press and hold Bake until the control produces an audible tone (about 6 seconds). The factory offset temperature of 0 (zero) should appear in the display.

2.Enter 2 0 using numeric keypad.

•Silent or audible control

•Oven temperature display (Fahrenheit or Celsius)

•Oven temperature adjustments (UPO)

To restore oven control to factory default settings:

1.Press and hold 7 on numeric keypad until acceptance tone sounds (about 6 seconds).
