ADJUST THE OVEN THERMOSTAT—

DO IT YOURSELF!

You may find that your new oven cooks differently than the one it replaced. We recommend that you use your new oven for a few weeks to become more familiar with it, following the times given in your recipes as a guide.

If you think your new oven is too hot or too cool, you can adjust the thermostat yourself. If you think it is too hot, adjust the thermostat to make it cooler. If you think it is too cool, adjust the thermostat to make it hotter.

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

The thermostat adjustment for Baking also affects Convection Baking and Convection Roasting.

To Adjust the Thermostat:

Press BAKE once to increase

(+) the oven temperature, or twice to decrease (-).

3. The oven temperature can be

 

adjusted up to (+) 35°F. hotter

 

or (-) 35°F. cooler. Press the

read them. For example, to

15°F., press 1 and 5.

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.
