Adjusting the oven temperature control

Does your oven seem hotter or colder than your old oven? The temperature of your old oven may have shifted gradually without you noticing the change. Your new oven is properly adjusted to provide accurate temperatures. But, when compared to your old oven, the new design may give you different results.

If, after using the oven for a period of time, you are not satisfied with the temperature settings, they can be adjusted by following these steps:

1.Push the Bake pad and hold for 4 seconds. The display will show the current temperature offset, for example “00”if you have not previously adjusted the temperature.

2.To adjust the temperature, use the Temp pad(s). Push A to raise the temperature or V to lower the temperature in 5’F increments. You can set the temperatule change to as low as -35’F or as high as +35’F. A minus (-) sign will appear before the number when decreas- ing the temperature setting to show the oven will be cooler by the displayed amount.

3.After making the desired adjustment, push any command pad to enter the new offset temperature.
