Do It YozwseZ$—Adjust the Oven Thermostat

If you don’t think the oven is heating at the right temperature when you are baking or roasting, you can reset the thermostat yourself.

When cooking food for the first time in your oven, use time given on recipes as a guide. Oven thermostats, over a period of years, may “drift” from the factory setting and the differences in timing between an old and a new oven of 5 to 10 minutes are not unusual. Your oven has been set correctly at the factory and is more likely to be accurate than the oven which it replaced.

We do not recommend the use of inexpensive thermometers, such as those found in the grocery store, to re-adjust the temperature setting of your new oven. These thermometers can vary by 20-40 degrees.

To decide how much to change the temperature, set the oven temperature 25°F. higher or lower than the temperature in your recipe, then bake. The results of this “test” should give you an idea of how much the temperature should be changed.

To Adjust the Temperature:

1.Press the BAKE pad.

2. Select an oven temperature between 500°F. and 550°F.

3. Immediately, before “ON” appears, press and hold the BAKE pad for about 4 seconds. The time display will change to the oven adjustment display.

4. The oven temperature can be adjusted up to (+) 35”F. hotter or (–) 35”F. cooler. Use the INCREASE or DECREASE pad to select the desired change in the red display.

OFF the time of day display. Use your oven as you would normally.

NOTE: This adjustment will not affect the Broil or Clean temperatures. It will be retained in memory after a power failure.

BAKING

Your oven temperature is controlled very accurately using an oven control system. We recommend that you operate the range for a number of weeks using the time given on recipes as a guide to become familiar with your new oven’s performance. If you think an adjustment is necessary, see the Do Zt Your~e/f-Adjust the Oven Thermostat section.
