"DO-IT-YOURSELF" OVEN TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT (Upper Oven)
You may feel that your new oven cooks differently than
the oven it replaced. We recommend that you use your
new oven a few weeks to become more familiar with it,
following the times given In your recipes as a guide.
Your oven has been preset to maximize cooking
efficlency. If you think your new oven is too hot
(burning foods), or not hot enough (toods are under-
cooked) you can adjust the temperature yourself. The
appearance and texture of foods Is a better Indicator of
oven accuracy than an Inexpensive oven thermometer.
We do not recommend the use of inexpensive
thermometers, such as those found in the grocery
store, to readjust the temperature setting of your
new oven. These thermometers can vary by 20°-40°F.
Also, you must open the oven door to read the
thermometer and this changes the temperature of the
oven.
To decide how much to change the temperature, set the
oven temperature 25°F higher (if foods are under-
cooked) or 25°F lower (if foods are burning) than the
temperature In your recipe, then bake. The results of
this "test" should give you an Idea of how much the
temperature should be changed.
To adjust temperature follow these instructions:
1. Press the BAKE pad.
2. Press the UP arrow pad to select a
temperature between 500°F and 550°F.
3. IMMEDIATELY, press and hold the BAKE pad for
about 4 sec(,,lds. This display will show "ON" and
"BAKE" will flash in the display.
4. Use the UP pad to Increase temperature. Press the
down arrow pad to decrease the temperature.
The temperature cart be adjusted up to +35°F hotter
or -35°F cooler.
TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT
SET BETWEEN-35°F YOU HAVE SELECTED IS
AND +35°F SHOWN IN THE DISPLAY
5. When you have made the adjustment, push the
CLOCK pad to return the display to the time of day.
Use your oven as you would normally.
NOTE: This adjustment will not affect Broil or
Clean temperatures. It will be remembered
when power is removed.
Adjusting the thermostat of one oven will not
affect baking performance in the other oven.
Each oven must be adjusted separately.
