Kenmore 46745 Use & Care Manual page 24

You may feel that your new oven cooks differently than
the oven it replaced. We recommend that you use your
new oven a few weeks to become more familiar with it,
following the times given In your recipes as a guide.
Your oven has been preset to maximize cooking
efficiency. If you think your new oven is too hot
(burning foods), or not hot enough (foods are under-
cooked) you can adjust the temperature yourself. The
appearance and texture of foods Is a better Indicator of
oven accuracy than an Inexpensive oven thermometer.
We do not recommend the use of inexpensive
thermonteters, such as those found in the grocery
store, to readjust the temperature setting of your
new oven. "fhese thermometers can vary by 20°-,40°F.
Also, you must open the oven door to read the
thermometer and this changes the temperature of the
OVER.
To decide how much to change the temperature, set the
oven temperature 25°F higher (if foods are under-
cooked) or 25°F lower (if foods are burning) than the
temperature In your recipe, then bake. The results of
this "test" should give you an Idea of how much the
temperature should be changed°
