Adjust the Oven Thermostat--Do It Yoursel

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 cootet:

If you think it is too coo!, 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°E (i 1-22°C,).

To Adjust the Thermostat:

Pull the OVEN CONTROL knob off the range and look at the back side_

To make adjustment, loosen (approximately one turn),

but do not completely remove, the two screws on the back of the knob° With the back of the knob facing you, hold the outer edge of the knob with one hand and turn the front of the knob with the other hand.

(appearance may vary)

To raise the oven temperature, move the top screw toward the right. You'll hear a click for each notch you

move the knob° To lower the temperature, move the top screw toward the left. Each click will change the

oven temperature approximately 10°E (6°C.)o

[Range is plus or minus 60°E (33°C.) from the arrow.]

We suggest that you make the adjustment one click from the original setting and check oven performance

before making any additional adjustments.

After the adjustment is made, retighten screws so they

a_e snug, but be careful not to overtighten. Reinstall knob on range and check performance,.
