Adjust the oven thermostat--Do it yourself!
You may find that your new oven cooks differently than the one it replaced. Use your new oven for a few weeks to
become more familiar with it. If you still think your new oven is too hot or too cold, you can adjust the thermostat
yourself.
Do not use thermometers, such as those found in grocery stores, to check the temperature setting of your oven.
These thermometers may vary 20_40 degrees.
NOTE" This adjustment will only affect baking and roasting temperatures; it will not affect broiling, convection or
self-cleaning temperatures. The adjustment will be retained in memory after a power failure.

Thetype of margarine will affect baking performance!
Most recipes for baking have been developed us&g high-fat products such as butter or margarine (80% fat). If you
decrease the fat, the recipe may not give the same results as with a higher-fat product.
Recipe failure can result if cakes, pies, pastries, cookies or candies are made with low-fat spreads. The lower the fat
content of a spread product, the more noticeable these differences become.
Federal standards require products labeled "inaigai_ine '' to contain at least 80% lilt by weight, ixmqht spreads, oil the
other hand, contain less tilt and inore watei: Tile high nloismre content of these spreads affects the texture and flavor
of baked goods. For best results with u)ur old filvorite redpes, use inaigai_ine, butter or stick spreads containing at least
70% vegetable oil.
