USING YOUR RANGE
ADJUSTING THE OVEN TEMPERATURE CONTROL
Although your new oven is properly adjusted to
provide accurate temperatures, it may cook faster
or slower than your old oven.
If you are not satisfied with the baking/roasting
results, you can change the offset temperature by
following the steps below.
NOTE: DO NOT measure oven temperature with a
thermometer. Opening the oven door will lower the
oven temperature and give you an incorrect reading.
Also, the thermometer temperature reading will
change as your oven cycles.
1. Press and hold the bake pad for 4 seconds.
The display will show 350°F for 4 seconds. Then
you will see the current offset temperature, for
example “00,” if you have not already adjusted
the temperature.
2. Set the new offset temperature.
Press s to raise the temperature or t to lower
the temperature in 10°F amounts. You can set
the temperature change to as low as -30°F or as
high as +30°F. A minus (-) sign will appear before
the number when decreasing the temperature
setting. The minus sign shows the oven will be
cooler by the displayed amount. There is no sign
in front of the number when increasing the
temperature setting.
3. Enter the adjustment.
NOTE: The offset temperature resets to “00” if
the power goes out for more than 1 second.
How to determine the amount of
adjustment needed
The chart at the right tells you how much to adjust
the offset temperature to get the cooking results
you want. You can figure out cooking results by the
amount of browning, moistness, and rising times for
baked foods.
