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 only affect baking and roasting temperatures; # does not affect the broiling temperature.
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 standards reqtlire pro(hl('ts labeled "margarine" to contain at least 80% tilt by weight, ix)w lilt spreads, on the
other hand, contain less tilt and more water Tile high moisture content at these spreads affects the texture and flavor
of baked goods. For best results with umr old tm:o_ite redpes, use mmgarine, butter or stick spreads containing at least
70% vegetable oil.
