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.
If you think your new oven is too hot
(burning foods) or not hot enough
(foods are underoooked), you can
adjust the temperature yourself. The
appearance and texture of foods is a
better indicator of oven accuracy than
oven thermometers. These
thermometers can vary by 20-40 TEMP
degrees. In addition, the oven door
must be opened to read these
thermometers. Opening the door will
change the temperature of the oven.
To decide how much to change the
temperature, set the oven temperature
25 degrees higher (if foods are
undercooked) or 25 degrees lower
(if foods are burning) than the
temperature in your recipe, then bake. ( _'T.a.R'T_
