USING YOUR OVEN
(continued)
Shelf Positions
The oven has 4 shelf supports identified in this
illustration as A (bottom), B,
C
and D (top).
Shelf positions for cooking are suggested in the
Baking, Roasting and Broiling sections.
Oven Light
Use the switch on the control panel to turn the light on and off.
Adjusting the Oven Thermostat
If you don’t think the oven is heating at the right
temperature when you are baking or roasting, you
can reset the thermostat yourself.
When cooking food for the first time in your new
oven, use time given on recipes as a guide. Oven
thermostats, over a period of years, may “drift” from
the factory setting and the differences in timing
between an old and a new oven of 5 to
10
minutes are
not unusual. Your oven has been set correctly at the
factory and is more likely to be accurate than the oven
which it replaced.
We do not recommend the use of inexpensive
thermometers,
such as those found in the grocery
store, to check the temperature setting of your new
oven. These thermometers can vary by
2040
degrees.
To decide how much to change the temperature,
set the oven temperature
25”F.
higher or lower than
the temperature in your recipe, then bake. The results
of this “test” should give you an idea of how much, the
temperature should be changed.
