2. Replace dial, turn to 350°F (175°C) mark, and light burner.
3. After burner has been on about 15 minutes check temperature.
4. Continue to check temperature, at 5-minute intervals, until two successive readings are within 5°F (3°C) of each
other.
The control should be recalibrated if your reading is not within 20°F (11°C) of the dial setting (350°F or 175°C). If
calibration is required, the additional steps to be taken are these:
5. Hold dial firmly, insert screwdriver through center of dial, and push calibration stem inward. DO NOT TURN THIS
STEM.
6. While holding calibration stem in firmly with screwdriver, turn dial until it is set at the actual oven temperature as
shown by your test instrument. Release pressure on calibration stem. Replace dial insert.
7. Set dial at 400°F (205°C) mark. Check temperature again, as instructed in steps 3 and 4. If the temperature is
not within 20°F (11°C) of the dial setting (400°F or 205°C), it means that the sensing element is inoperative and
the control should be replaced.
