Adjust the Oven Thermostat--Do
# Yourself!
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,
you can adjust
the thermostat
yourself,
If you think
it is too hot, adjust the thermostat
to make it cooler
If
you think it is too cool, adjust the thermostat
to make it
hotter..
We do not recommend
the use
of inexpensive
thermometers,
such
as
those
found
in grocery
stores,
to check the temperature
setting of your new
oven.
These
thermometers
may
vary
20-40°F
(11-22°C).
To Adjust
the Thermostat:
Pull the OVEN CONTROL
knob off the range and took
at the back side
To make adjustment,
loosen (approximately
one turn),
but do not completely
remove,
the two screws
on the
back of the knob.
With the back of the knob facing
you, hold the outer edge of the knob with one hand
and turn the front of the knob with the other hand_
(appearance
may vary)
To raise the oven temperature,
move the top screw
toward the right.. You'll hear a click for each notch you
move the knob. To lower the temperature,
move the
top screw toward
the left. Each click will change
the
oven temperature
approximately
10°F (6°C). [Range
is plus or minus 60°F (33°C) from the arrow.]
We suggest
that you make the adjustment
one click
from the original
setting and check oven performance
before
making any additional
adjustment&
After the adjustment
is made, retighten screws so they
are snug, but be careful
not to overtighten.
Reinstall
knob on range and check performance..
