Operating Instructions A - Hotpoint RB787WC2WW Owner's Manual And Installation Instructions

Adjust the oven thermostat--Easy to do yourself! .CEA,p,ances.ce,n
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 vary 20-40°F.
NOTE: This adjustment will not affect the broiling or the self-cleaning temperatures (on some models). 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.
