Adjusting the oven temperature control
Oven temperature controls will gradually shift after years of use. So, even though 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 temperature settings, you can change them by following these steps:
1.Make sure the Oven Temperature Control Knob is turned to the off position. Pull knob straight off and flip it over.
2.Loosen the locking screws inside the control knob. Note the position of the notches.
3.To lower the temperature, hold knob handle firmly and move the tooth a notch counterclockwise. Each notch equals about 5°F (2.5%).
4.To raise the temperature, hold knob handle firmly and move the tooth a notch clock- wise. Each notch equals about 5°F (2.5%).
5.Tighten the locking screws and replace the control knob.
Broiling
1.Position the rack before turning the oven on. Sea “Broilingrack position chart” on page 16.
2.Put the broiler pan and food on the rack.
3.Close the door to the Broil Stop position (open about 4 inches [lo.2 cm]). The door will stay open by itself.
4.Set the Oven Selector and Oven Tempera- ture Control Knob to BROIL. The OVEN HEATING Indicator Light will come on.
NOTE: Do not preheat oven when broiling.
5.When broiling is done, turn both the Oven Selector and Oven Temperature Control Knob to OFF. The OVEN HEATING Indicator Light will go off.
