Minor Adjustments You Can Make
-“OvenThermostat
Adjustment
The temperature control in your
- new oven has been carefully adjusted
to provide accurate temperatures.
However, if this oven has replaced
one you have used for several years,
you may notice a difference in the
degree of browning or the length of
time required when using your
favorite recipes. Oven temperature
controls have a tendency t~ “drift”
over a period of years and since
this drift is very gradual, it is not
readily noticed. Therefore, you
may have become accustomed to
your previous oven which may
have provided a higher or lower
temperature than you selected.
Before attempting to have the
temperature of your new oven
changed, be sure you have followed
the baking time and temperature of
the recipe carefully. Then, after
..
you have used the oven a few times
and you feel the oven is too hot
or too cool, there is a simple
adjustment you can make yourself
on the OVEN TEMP knob.
Pull the knob off the shaft and look
at the back side. There is a disc in
the center of the knob skirt with a
series of marks opposite a pointer.
the direction of arrow for LOWER.
Each mark will change the oven
temperature approximately 2C)°F.
We suggest that’you make the
adjustment one mark from the
original setting and check oven
performance before making any
additional adjustments.
After the adjustment is made,
press skirt and knob together and
retighten screws so they are snug,
but be careful not to overtighten.
Re-install knob on range and
check performance.
Note: After an adjustment has
been made to the OVEN TEMP
knob, OFF and BROIL will not
line up with the indicator mark on
the control panel as they previously
did. This condition is normal and
will not create a problem.
Oven Door Height

Repeated openings and closings
can cause the oven door to work
itself out of adjustment. One side
may close higher than the other,
and the door may not seal properly.
To adjust the height of the door:
1. Remove the door (see page 18).

before adjustment
Note to which mark the pointer is
pointing. To make an adjustment,
carefully loosen (approximately
one turn), but do not completely
remove the two screws that hold the
skirt to the knob. Hold the knob
blade in one hand and the outer
skirt in the other hand.
To raise the oven temperature,
move the pointer in the direction of
the arrow for RAISE. To lower the
temperature, move the pointer in

To determine if the burner flame
is proper, light the burner. The
flame should have 1/2”to 3/4” blue
cones with no yellow tipping. When
the baffle is back in place, the
flame will resettle.

turn the screw in the opening at
the top of each door hinge. Turn
cloctiise to lower, counterclockwise
to raise each side of the door.
3. Replace the door, close it, and
check alignment and door seal.
