Adjust the oven thermostat--Do it yourself! www.GEAppliances.co
Youmay find that your new oven cooks differently than the one # 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 vary20-40 degrees.
NOTE: This adjustment will not affect the broiling or the self-cleaning temperatures. The adjustment will be retained
in memory after a power failure.

Thetype of margarine will affect baking performanc!!
Most recipes for bak&g have been developed using 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 st;indards require products labeled
"II/aI'gaI'ille" to
(ont;lin at least 80% tilt by weight. I,ow tilt spreads, on tile
other hand, contain less tilt and more water: Tile high moisture content of these spreads aftects tile mxtm'e and flavor
of baked goods. For best results with u)ur old tm'orite recipes, use mmgmine, butter or stick spreads containing at least
70% vegetable oil.
