The oven light automatically turns on when the door is opened. There is a switch located on the control panel to turn on the light when the door is closed. Move this switch to the on or off position to turn the light on or off.

The oven light is located at the rear of each oven. It is covered with a glass shield held in place by a wire holder. The glass shield must be in place whenever the oven is in use.

To Change the Oven Light (some models)

1.Turn electrical power off at the main source.

2.Press wire holder to one side to release the glass shield.

3.Replace bulb with a new 40 watt appliance bulb.

4.Replace glass shield in socket and snap wire holder into place.

5.Turn power back on again at the main source.

6.The clock will then need to be reset. To reset, see Setting the Clock and Minute Timer in this Owner's Guide.

Adjusting Oven Temperature

Figure 1: Back of Control Knob

The temperature in the oven(s) has been set at the factory. When first using the oven, be sure to follow recipe times and temperatures. Then, if you think the oven is too hot or too cool, the temperature control of the oven can be adjusted. Before adjusting, test a recipe by using a higher or lower temperature than the recommended temperature. The baking results should help you to decide how much of an adjustment is needed.

To Adjust Oven Temperature:

1.Check to be sure the Temperature Control knob is in the OFF position.

2.Pull Temperature Control knob straight off the shaft.

3.Loosen, but do not remove, the two screws at the back of the knob (Figure 1). Note: If knob does not have 2 screws, it is not adjustable. There are a series of small indicator grooves. One of these grooves is positioned next to a tiny pointer. Note the position of the pointer.

4.To increase the temperature, move the pointer in a clockwise direction. To decrease the temperature, move the pointer in a counterclockwise direction. The temperature can be adjusted in increments of 10°F.

5.When the desired adjustment is reached, tighten both screws.

6.To replace the knob, line up the flat sides of both the knob and the shaft. Push the knob into place. DO NOT force the Temperature Control knob onto the shaft or you may damage the back of the knob.

Note: Once an adjustment is made, the OFF position will vary from the reference mark on the backguard depending on the amount of adjustment.
