Oven Temperature Offset Control
IMPORTANT: Do not use a thermometer to measure oven
temperature. Elements will cycle on and off as needed to provide
consistent temperature, but they may run slightly hot or cool at
any point in time due to this cycling. Most thermometers are slow
to react to temperature change and will not provide an accurate
reading due to this cycling.
The oven provides accurate temperatures; however, it may cook
faster or slower than your previous oven, so the temperature can
be adjusted to personalize it for your cooking needs. It can be
changed to Fahrenheit or Celsius.
To Adjust Oven Temperature:
1. Press OPTIONS until "TEMP CALIB" is displayed.
2. The current setting will be displayed. Press the "1" keypad to
toggle between the upper and lower ovens.
3. Press START to select the choice displayed in Step 2. Wait
10 seconds for the display to change or press START, and then
continue with Step 4.
4. Press the "3" keypad to increase the temperature in 5°F (3°C)
increments, or press the "6" keypad to decrease the
temperature in 5°F (3°C) increments. The range is from -30°F to
+30°F (-18°C to +18°C).
