The temperaturecontrolin your new
$~~oven has been carefully adjusted ggj;$$;$
‘~==to provide accurate temperatures.
However, if your new oven is replacing one you have used for several years, you may notice a differencein the degreeof browning or the length of time required when using your favorite recipes. This is because oven temperature controls have a tendency to “drift” over a period of years.
Before attempting to have the temperature of your new oven changed, be sure you have carefully followed the baking time and temperature recommended by the recipe.Then, after you haveused the oven a few times and you feel the oven is too hot or too cool, there is a simpleadjustmentyou can make yourself on the OVEN TEMP knob.
Pull the knob off the shaft and look at the back side. There is a disc in the Center of the knob skirt with a
pointer opposite one of the screws.
Each click will change the oven temperatureapproximately 10°F. (Range is plus or minus 60° from the arrow.)
We suggest that you make the adjustmentone click from the original setting and check oven performance before making any additional adjustments.
After the adjustment is made, press skirt and knob together and retighten screws so they are snug, but be careful not to overtighten.
