ADJUST THE OVEN THERMOSTATÑ
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 20Ð40 degrees.
To Adjust the Thermostat:
R | L |

(appearance may vary)
1.Check to be sure the OVEN CONTROL knob is in the OFF position.
2.Pull the knob straight off the shaft.
3.On the back of the knob there are a series of 5 to 7 small grooves. Note the position of the pointer (located in the middle groove). Loosen the 2 screws on the back of the knob.
NOTE: If the knob does not have 2 screws, it is not adjustable.
4.To increase or decrease the temperature, move the pointer in the desired direction according to the R (raise) Ð L (lower) arrow. The temperature can be adjusted in increments as indicated on the back of the knob.
5.When the desired adjustment is reached, tighten both screws.
6.To replace the knob, line up the flat sides of both the knob and the shaft. Push the knob into place. DO NOT force the OVEN CONTROL knob onto the shaft or you may damage the back of the knob.
NOTE: Once an adjustment is made, the OFF position will vary from the reference mark on the backguard depending on the amount of adjustment.
