"DO-IT-YOURSELF" TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENTS
You may feel that your new oven cooks dlfferenUy than
the oven It replaced. We recommend that you use your
new oven a few weeks to become more familiar with It,
following the times given In your reclpee as a guide.
If you think your new oven Is too hot (burning foods) or
not hot enough (foods are under-cooked) you canadjust
the temperature yourself. The appearance and texture
of foods are better Indicators of oven accuracy than
leexpenslve oven thermometers, such as those found In
the grocery stores, to check the temperature setting ot
your new oven. These thermometers can vary by 20-
40°F. In addition, the oven door must be opened to read
these thermometers. Opening the door will change the
temperature of the oven.
To decide how much to change the temperature, set the
oven temperature 25°F lower (If foods are burning) than
the temperature In your recipe, then bake. The result of
this "test" should give you an Idea of how much the
temperature should be changed.
TO MAKE THE TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT:
1, Make sure the oven control knob Is In the OFF
position, Remove the knob by pulling It straight off.
2, Look at the back of the knob. The pointer In the
center Indicates the original temperature setting.
