Adjust the oven thermostat—Do it yourself!

You may find that your new oven cooks differently than the one it replaced. Use your new oven for a few
weeks to become more familiar with it. If you still think your new oven is too hot or too cold, you can adjust
the thermostat yourself.

Do not use thermometers, such as those found in grocery stores, to check the temperature setting of your oven.
These thermometers may vary 20–40 degrees.

NOTE: This adjustment will not affect the broiling or the self-cleaning temperatures. The adjustment will be retained
in memory after a power failure.

To Adjust the Thermostat

Touch the BAKE and BROIL HI/LO

pads at the same time for 3 seconds

until the display shows SF.
Touch the BAKE pad. A two digit

number shows in the display.
Touch BAKE once to decrease (-)

the oven temperature, or twice to

increase (+).
The oven temperature can be

adjusted up as much as 35°F. or

down as much as 35°F. Touch the

number pads the same way you read

them. For example, to change the

oven temperature 15°F., touch 1

and 5.

When you have made the

adjustment, touch the START pad

to go back to the time of day display.

Use your oven as you would

normally.

NOTE: The thermostat adjustment for Baking
will also affect Convection Baking or Convection
Roasting.

The type of margarine will affect baking performance!

Most recipes for baking have been developed using high fat products such as butter or margarine (80% fat). If you
decrease the fat, the recipe may not give the same results as with a higher fat product.

Recipe failure can result if cakes, pies, pastries, cookies or candies are made with low fat spreads. The lower the fat
content of a spread product, the more noticeable these differences become.

Federal standards require products labeled “margarine” to contain at least 80% fat by weight. Low fat spreads, on the

other hand, contain less fat and more water. The high moisture content of these spreads affects the texture and flavor of

baked goods. For best results with your old favorite recipes, use margarine, butter or stick spreads containing at least

70% vegetable oil.
