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

you operate the oven for a number of weeks using the

with your new oven’s performance. If you think an
