Adjusting the oven temperature control
Although your new oven is properly adjusted to provide accurate temperatures, it may cook faster or slower than your old oven.
If, after using the oven for a period of time, you are not satisfied with the baking/roasting results, you can change the offset tempera- ture by following these steps:
NOTE: DO NOT measure oven temperature with a thermometer. Opening the oven door will lower the oven temperature and give you an inaccurate reading. Also, the ther- mometer temperature reading will change as your oven cycles.
