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 cold, you can adjust the thermostat yourself. If you think it is too hot, adjust the thermostat to make it cooler.

2.Loosen both screws on back of the knob.

3.Hold the knob as shown in the illustration of the back of the OVEN TEMP knob and turn so the bottom screw moves in the desired direction. You will hear and feel notches as you turn the knob. Each notch changes the temperature about 10° Fahrenheit.

Timed

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.
