Adjwtment

The temperature control in your new ovenhas been carefullyadjusted to provide accurate temperatures. However, if this oven has replaced one you haveusedfor severalyears, youmaynotice a difference in the degree of browning or the length of time required when using your favoriterecipes. Oven temperature controls have a tendency to “drifi” over a period of years and since this drift is very gradual, it is not readily noticed. Therefore, you may have become accustomed to your previous oven which may have provided a higher or lower temperature than you selected.

Before attempting to have the temperature of your new oven changed, be sure you have followed the baking time and temperature of the recipe carefully. Then, after you have usedthe ovena fewtimes andyoufeelthe ovenis toohot
