Adjusting
Oven Thermostat
When cooking a
food for the first time in
your new oven, use time given on recipe as a
guide.
Oven thermostats, over a period of
years, may "drift" from the factory setting
and differences in timing between an old and
a new oven of 5 to
10
minutes are not un-
usual. Your new oven has been set correctly
at the factory and is more apt to be accurate
than the oven which it replaced. However, if
you find that your foods consistently brown
too little or too much, you may make a
simple adjustment in the thermostat (Oven
Temp) knob.

ture. Each notch changes oven temperature
10 degrees.

ance before making an additional adjust-
ment.
