instructions. After you have finished this test and it does not cook accurately, then request
a service call.

instructions.
2. Pre-heat the oven.

Baking time may vary from food manufacturer's instructions, and there may be a slight
temperature variation due to knob rotation. Only if there is a wide variation should you
calibrate the thermostat.
