Minor Adjustments You Can Make
Adjusting Oven Thermostat
When cooking a 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
their factory settings° Differences of 5 to 10 minutes
between the cooking times of old ovens and those of
new ovens are not unusual. Since the thermostat on
your new oven has been set correctly at the factory, it
is more likely to be accurate than the thermostat on
the oven it replaced
If you think the oven should be hotter or cooler, you
can adjust it yourself_ To decide how much to change
the thermostat, set the oven temperature 25°E 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 thermostat should be change&
To adjust thermostat:
1. Touch BAKE pad
2. Select an oven tempera-
ture between 500°F and
550°E
3. Immediately, before BAKE indicator
stops flashing, press and hold the BAKE
pad for about 4 seconds The display will
change to the oven adjustment display.
4. The oven thermostat can
be adjusted up to (+) 35°F
hotter or (-) 35°E cooler
Use the INCREASE or
DECREASE pads to select
the desired change in the red display.
5. When you have made the adjustment,
press the CLEAR/OFF pad to go back to
the time of day display. Use your oven
as you would normally
NOTE: This adjustment will not affect Broil or Clean
temperatures. It will be remembered when power is
removed.
