You may feel that your new oven cooks differently
than the one it replaced. We recommend that you
use your new oven for a few weeks to become more
familiar with it, following the times given in your
recipes as a guide.
If you think your new oven is too hot or too cold,
it is too hot, adjusl the therlnostat to make it cooler. If

it hotter.
We do not recommend the use of inexpensive
thermometers, SLICII as those found in grocery stores.
to check the temperature setting of your new oven.
These thermometers may vary 20&40 degrees.
The thermostat adjustment for Bake does not
affect Convection Bake or Convection Roast.
To adjust these, press the CONVECTION BAKE
