"DO-IT-YOURSELF"OVEN TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT

You may feel that your new oven cooks differently than

the oven It replaced. We recommend that you use your new oven s few weeks to become more familiar with it,

following the times given In your recipes as a guide.

Your oven has been preset to maximize cooking

efficiency. If you think your new oven is too hot

(burning foods), or not hot enough (foods are under- cooked) you can adjust the temperature yourself. The appearance and texture of foods Is a better Indicator of oven accuracy than an inexpensive oven thermometer.

We do not recommend the use of inexpensive

thermometers, such as those found in the grocery

store, to readjust the temperature setting of your new oven. These thermometers can vary by 20°-40°F. Also, you must open the oven door to read the thermometer and this changes the temperature of the oven.

To decide how much to change the temperature, set the oven temperature 25°F higher (if foods are under- cooked) or 25°F lower (if foods are burning) than the temperature In your recipe, then bake. The results of this "test" should give you an idea of how much the temperature should be changed.

To adjust temperature follow these instructions:

1. P_sstheBAKE pad.

2.Press the UP arrow pad to set 550° and

IMMEDIATELY press and HOLD the BAKE pad for 10 seconds until the clock disappears and t he display shows a two digit figure.

(This two digit number may vary according to the odglnal factory setting.)

3.Press the UP arrow to Increase your oven'stemperature up to +35° HOTTER.

Press t he DOWN arrow pad to decrease

your oven's temperature down to -35°

COOLER.

4.When your selection Is complete press the CLOCK pad to return to the time of day.

Your oven's thermostat will retain this temperature adjustment until each of the four steps above are repeated. This adjustment will remain In memory even after a power failure.

You will not need to do anything else. Bake as you normally would. This adjustment will not affect broil or clean temperature.
