Adjusting The Oven Temperature Control; Broiling - Whirlpool RF360BXY Use And Care Manual

Adjusting the oven temperature control
Oven temperature controls will gradually shift
after years of use. So, even though your new
oven is propery 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 temperature settings,
you can change them by following these steps:
1. Turn the Oven Temperature Control Knob 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 counter-
clockwise. Each notch equals about 5°F
(2.5%).
4. To raise the temperature, hold knob handle
firmly and move the tooth a notch clockwise.
Each notch equals about 5°F (2.5%).
Tighten the locking screws and replace the
control knob.
Broiling

the oven. Position rack so that the surface of
the food is at least 3 inches (7.4 cm) away
from the broil element. See "Broiling rack
position chart" on page 14.
2. Put the broiler pan and food on the rack
3. Close the door to the Broil Stop position (open
