ADJUST
THE
OVEN
THERMOSTAT-DO
IT 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 groceu
stores,
to check the tenaperature setting of your new oven.
These thermometers
may vary 20-40 degrees.
Pull the knob off of the shaft, look at the back of
the knob aud note the current setting before making
any adjustment.
To increase the temperature,
turn toward HI or
RAISE: to decrease,
turn toward LO or LOWER.
Each notch changes temperature
10 degrees.
To adjust oven thermostat
for either oven:
1. Pull off the OVEN
TEMP knob of the oven
needing
adjustment.
Loosen both screws on
the back of the knob.
2. Move the pointer one
notch in the desired
direction. Tighten the
screws.
3. Return the kuob to the
rauge, matching
the flat
area of the knob to the shaft.
Re-check oven performance
before making an
additional
adjustment.
