Adjusting the oven temperature

Oven temperature controls will gradually shift after years of use. So, even though your new oven is propery 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.Turn the Oven Temperature Control Knob 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 counter- clockwise. Each notch equals about 5°F (2.5%).

4.To raise the temperature, hold knob handle firmly and move the tooth a notch clockwise. Each notch equals about 5°F (2.5%).

Broiling

1.Position the rack properly before turning on the oven. The oven rack should be positioned so that the surface of the food is at least 3 inches (7.4 cm) away from the broil element. See “Broiling rack position chart” on page 13.

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 Temperature 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.

Whirlpool has long been a trusted name in home appliances, and its range of cooktops is no exception. Whether you're preparing a family meal or hosting a dinner party, a Whirlpool range combines practicality and advanced technology to enhance your cooking experience.

One of the standout features of Whirlpool ranges is their versatility. Many models offer a combination of gas and electric cooking options, allowing users to choose how they want to prepare their meals. The Gas Burners deliver precise heat control, enabling chefs to achieve the perfect simmer or rapid boiling, while the electric ovens provide even baking and roasting results.

The True Convection technology is another significant feature that sets Whirlpool ranges apart. This system uses a fan and an additional heating element to circulate hot air throughout the oven, ensuring food is cooked evenly on every rack. This is particularly beneficial for multi-layered baking or when cooking multiple dishes at once.

Whirlpool also addresses the need for convenience in the kitchen with features like the Fast Preheat setting that allows the oven to reach the desired temperature in a fraction of the time. Programmable controls, including touch-screen interfaces on select models, make it easy to set cooking times and temperatures accurately.

Cleaning is often a concern with ranges, but Whirlpool incorporates innovative technologies such as the self-cleaning oven feature. This technology uses high temperatures to burn off food residues, leaving behind only ash that can be easily wiped away. Additionally, many models have a fingerprint-resistant finish, keeping the surface clear of smudges and making maintenance a breeze.

Safety is another critical characteristic of Whirlpool ranges. Many units feature a control lock that prevents accidental operation and ensures peace of mind in households with children.

Moreover, Whirlpool's commitment to energy efficiency is evident in their range designs. They integrate eco-friendly appliances that minimize energy consumption, helping families save on utility bills while reducing their environmental impact.

In summary, Whirlpool ranges incorporate various features and technologies designed to enhance cooking performance, convenience, and safety. With options that cater to both amateur cooks and seasoned chefs, Whirlpool continues to deliver high-quality kitchen solutions that meet the diverse needs of modern households.
