Meat Thermometer
On models without a temperature probe, use a meat
thermometer to determine doneness of meat, poultry and fish.
The internal temperature, not appearance, should be used to
determine doneness. A meat thermometer is not supplied with
this appliance.
Insert the thermometer into the center of the thickest portion
of the meat or inner thigh or breast of poultry. The tip of the
thermometer should not touch fat, bone or gristle.
After reading the thermometer once, push it into the meat
½" (1.3 cm) more and read again. If the temperature drops,
cook the meat or poultry longer.
Check all meat, poultry and fish in 2 or 3 different places.
Oven Vent
The oven vent releases hot air and moisture from the oven, and
should not be blocked or covered. Blocking or covering vent will
cause poor air circulation, affecting cooking and cleaning results.
Do not set plastics, paper or other items that could melt or burn
near the oven vent.
The element can be used when the oven is in use as long as the
cookware does not extend more than ¹⁄₂" (1.3 cm) over the
element.
Oven Temperature Control
IMPORTANT: Do not use a thermometer to measure oven
temperature because opening the oven door and element or
burner cycling may give incorrect readings.
The oven provides accurate temperatures; however, it may cook
faster or slower than your previous oven, so the temperature
calibration can be adjusted. It can be changed in Fahrenheit or
Celsius.
A minus sign means the oven will be cooler by the displayed
amount. The absence of a minus sign means the oven will be
warmer by the displayed amount. Use the following chart as a
guide.
To Adjust Oven Temperature Calibration:
1. Press and hold CLOCK until the oven display shows the
current calibration, for example, “00,” if not yet adjusted, or
about 5 seconds.
2. Press the “up” or “down” arrow pads to increase or to
decrease the temperature in 5°F (3°C) amounts. The
adjustment can be set between 35°F (19°C) and
-35°F (-19°C).
3. Press CLOCK to enter the new temperature.
To Adjust Oven Temperature Calibration (on models with
manual oven control):
1. Make sure the oven temperature control knob is in the Off
position. Pull oven temperature control knob straight off and
turn it over.
2. Loosen the locking screws inside the oven temperature
control knob.
3. Adjust temperature.
To lower the temperature, hold the knob handle firmly and
turn skirt counterclockwise to move the tooth a notch to the
left.
To raise the temperature, hold the knob handle firmly and turn
the skirt clockwise to move the tooth a notch to the right.
Each notch equals about 5°F (3°C).
4. Tighten the locking screws and replace knob.
