Adjusting Oven Temperatures
Your appliance has been factory calibrated and tested to ensure
accurate baking temperatures. For the first few uses, follow your
recipe times and temperature recommendations carefully. If you
think the oven is cooking too hot or too cool for your recipe
times, you may adjust the control so the oven cooks hotter or
cooler than the oven temperature displayed.
The oven temperature may be increased as much as +35°F
(+19°C) or decreased -35°F (-19°C) from the factory calibrated
settings.
To increase (+) or decrease (-) the oven temperature by 20°F:
1. Press and hold Bake until the control produces an audible
tone (about 6 seconds). The factory offset temperature of 0
(zero) should appear in the display.
2. Enter 2 0 using numeric keypad.
3. Press Self Clean to toggle between plus (+) if increasing
temperature or minus (-) if decreasing the temperature.
4. Press to accept change.
Important note:
Oven temperature adjustments made will not change the
Broil or Self Clean function temperatures.
If the temperature shows an adjustment of -20°F, and a
+20°F adjustment is needed, you can toggle between the
minus (-) or plus (+) in the display when pressing Self Clean
key (See Step 3).
Do not use oven thermometers such as those found in
grocery stores to check the temperature settings inside your
oven. These oven thermometers may vary as much as 20°F
to 40°F degrees from actual temperatures.
The oven temperature adjustment may be made if your
oven control has been set to display °C temperatures.
Minimum and maximum settings for °C range from plus (+)
19°C to minus (-) 19°C.

changes to these settings. The following options may have been
modified since the appliance was new:

interior and are covered with a glass shield. The glass shield
protects the bulb from high temperatures and should always be
in place whenever the oven is in use.
