Adjusting oven temperature
The appliance has been factory calibrated and tested to ensure
an accurate baking temperature, known as the User Preference
Offset (UPO). For the first few uses, follow your recipe times
and temperature recommendations carefully. If you think the
oven is cooking too hot or too cool for your recipe times, you
may adjust the control so the oven cooks hotter or cooler than
the oven temperature displayed.
The oven temperature may be increased as much as ÷35°F
(÷19°C) or decreased -35°F (-19°C) from the factory cali-
brated settings.
To adjust oven temperature:
1. Press Bake and hold for 3 seconds. The UPO value will
appear in the display with a degree sign.
2. The display now indicates the amount of degrees offset
from the original factory temperature setting. If the control
still has the original factory calibration, the display will
read 0.

4.
The temperature may be adjusted up or down 35°F (19°C),
in 1 °F increments by pressing and holding A or V"
Adjust until the desired amount of temperature offset
appears in the display and press START to save.
If the STOP key is pressed during the programming mode,
the UPO value will remain unchanged.
Important notes:
• Oven temperature adjustments made will not change the
Broil or Self-Clean operating temperatures.
Do not use oven thermometers such as those found in
grocery stores to check the temperature settings inside your
oven. These oven thermometers may vary as much as 20°F
to 40°F degrees from actual temperatures.
The oven temperature adjustment may be made if your
oven control has been set to display °C temperatures.
Minimum and maximum settings for °C is plus (÷) or minus
(-) 19°C.
• If the display mode is set for °C, adjustments made will be
in 1 °C increments on each press of A or V"
