the oven temperature
control
Although your new oven is properly adjusted
to provide accurate temperatures,
it may
cook faster or slower than your old oven.
If, after using the oven for a period of time,
you are not satisfied with the baking/roasting
results, you can change the temperature
calibration by following these steps:
1.
Make sure the Oven Temperature
Control Knob is turned to the off position.
Pull knob straight off and flip it over.

2. Loosen the locking screws inside the
control knob. Note the position
of the
notches.
3. To lower the temperature,
hold knob
handle firmly and move the tooth a notch
counterclockwise.
Each notch equals
about 5°F (25°C).
4. To raise the temperature,
hold knob
handle firmly and move the tooth a
notch clockwise. Each notch equals
about 5°F (2.5%).
5. Tighten
the locking screws and replace
the control knob.
NOTE: DO NOT measure oven temperature
with a thermometer.
Opening the oven door
will lower the oven temperature and give
you an inaccurate reading. Also, the ther-
mometer temperature
reading will change
as your oven cycles.
