Adjust the oven thermostat--Do it yourself!
Youmay find that your new oven cooks differently than the one it replaced. Use your new oven for a few
weeks to become more familiar with it. If you still think your new oven is too hot or too cold, you can adjust
the thermostat yourself.
Do not use thermometers, such as those found in grocery stores, to check the temperature setting of your oven.
These thermometers may vary20-40 degrees.
NOTE." This adjustment will not affect the broiling or the self-cleaning temperatures. The adjustment will be
retained in memory after a power failure.

Thetype of margarine will affect baking performance!
Most recipes for baking have been developed using high fat products such as butter or margarine (80% fat). If you
decrease the fat, the recipe may not give the same results as with a higher fat product.
Recipe failure can result if cakes, pies, pastries, cookies or candies are made with low fat spreads. The lower the fat
content of a spread product, the more noticeable these differences become.
Federal stan&uds require producls labeled "margmine" to contain at least 80% tat bywdght. Lowtat spreads, on the
other hand, contain less tat and more water. The high moisture content of these spreads affect the texture and flavor of
baked goods. Fox best resuhs with your old tavorite redpes, use margarine, butter or stick spreads containing at least
70% vegetable oil.
