Oven temperature control adjustment
Yourrange is calibratedat the factory for propertemperature. Due to
individualvadances and preferences, it may be necessary to adjust oven
once it has been installed.
When first using the oven, follow recipe times and temperatures. Before
adjustingoven baking temperature, test a recipe, such as ready-to-bake
biscuits,by settingoven temperature higher or lowerthan the suggested

An accurate digitalthermometer is necessary to calibrate the oven. Store
purchased oven thermometers do not accurately measure oven temperature.
Oven temperature can be increased or decreased by 35 °F. To avoid over
adjusting the oven, onlyadjust the temperature by 5 °F each time.
