"BOIT YOURSELF"
TEMFERATURE
ADJUSTMENT
You may feet that your new oven cooks
differently than the oven it replaced. We
recommend that you use your new oven
a few weeks to become more familiar
with it, following the times given in your
recipes as a guide.
If you think your new oven is too hot
(burning foods) or not hot enough
(foods are undercooked) you can adjust
the temperature yourself. The appearance
and texture of foods is a better indicator of
oven accuracy than an oven thermometer
to check the temperature setting of your
new oven. These thermometers can
vary by 20-40 °. fn addition, the oven
door must be opened to read these
thermometers. Opening the door will
change the temperature of the oven.
To decide how much to change the
temperature, set the oven temperature
25 ° higher (if foods are undercooked) or
25 ° lower (if foods are burning) than the
temperature in your recipe, then bake.
The results of this "test" should give you
an idea of how much the temperature
should be changed.
