RESETTING THE OVEN TEMPERATURE CONTROLS

RESETTING THE OVEN TEMPERATURE CONTROLS

Does either oven seem to be hotter or colder than your old oven at the same settings? The temperature setting in your old oven may have changed gradually over the years. The accurate setting of your new ovens can seem different. If you

think either or both oven temperatures need adjusting, follow these steps:

BROILING IN THE UPPER OVEN

DOOR MUST BE PARTLY

OPEN FOR BROILING

1.Put rack in broiling posi- tion (see page 6 for suggestions); put brorler pan and food on the rack

2.Swing broil stop clips over hinge slots.

3.Close door to the stops.

4.Set Upper Oven Selector to BROIL.

5.Set Upper Oven Tempera- ture Control to BROIL. (Set on a lower temperature

for slower broiling. See below.)

6.When broiling is done, turn both knobs to OFF. Move the broil stop clips and close the door.

Broiling can be slowed (upper oven only) by setting the Upper Oven Tempera- ture Control to a setting lower than BROIL. When it’s on BROIL, the broil element is on all the time. When it’s on a temperature, the element turns off and on. The lower the temperature setting, the shorter are the times when the element is on.

The Oven Selector Knob must be on BROIL for the broil element to heat.
