ADJUST THE OVEN THERMOSTAT—

DO IT YOURSELF!

You may feel 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 cold, 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 2040 degrees.

The thermostat adjustment for Bake does not affect Convection Bake or Convection Roast.

To adjust these, press the CONVECTION BAKE or the CONVECTION ROAST pad instead of the BAKE pad when following the steps under To Adjust the Thermostat.

To Adjust the Thermostat:

NOTE: The thermostats in the upper and lower ovens need to be adjusted separately.

BAKE temperature. n

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