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 you are not satisfied with the baking/roasting results, you can change the offset temperature by following the steps below.

NOTE: DO NOT measure oven temperature with a thermometer. Opening the oven door will lower the oven temperature and give you an incorrect reading. Also, the thermometer temperature reading will change as your oven cycles.

1. Press and hold CLOCK for 5 seconds.	PRESS	YOU SEE
The display will show the time of day. Then you
will see the current offset temperature, for
example “00,” if you have not already adjusted
the temperature.
		(factory setting of “00”)

2. Set the new offset temperature.	PRESS
Press s to raise the temperature or t to lower the
temperature in 10°F amounts. You can set the
temperature change to as low as -30°F or as high
as +30°F. A minus (-) sign will appear before the
number when decreasing the temperature setting.
The minus sign shows the oven will be cooler by the
displayed amount. There is no sign in front of the
number when increasing the temperature setting.

How to determine the amount of adjustment needed

The chart at the right tells you how much to adjust the offset temperature to get the cooking results you want. You can figure out cooking results by the amount of browning, moistness, and rising times for baked foods.
