Adjusting The Oven Temperature Control - Whirlpool RF362BBD Use And Care Manual

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.
1. Press and hold Bake pad for
5 seconds.
PRESS YOU SEE
The display will show the current offset
temperature, for example "O", if you have
not previously adjusted the temperature.
2. Set new offset temperature.
Press A to raise the temperature or V to
lower the temperature in 10°F amounts.
You can set the temperature change to
as low as -30°F or as high as +3O"F. A
minus (-) sign will appear before the
number when decreasing the tempera-
ture setting to show the oven will be
cooler by the displayed amount. There
is no sign in front of the number when
increasing the temperature setting.
