CAUTION
Use caution when using the automatic timer.
Use the automatic timer when cooking cured or
frozen meats and most fruits and vegetables.
Foods that can easily spoil such as milk, eggs,

refrigerator fi rst. Even when chilled, they should
not stand in the oven for more than 1 hour
before cooking begins, and should be removed
promptly when cooking is completed.
RECALIBRATING YOUR OVEN TEMPERATURE
Recalibrating Your Oven Temperature
The temperature in the oven has been set at the factory.
When fi rst using the oven, be sure to follow recipe times
and temperatures. If you think the oven is too hot or too
cool, the temperature in the oven can be adjusted. Before
adjusting, test a recipe by using a temperature setting
that is higher or lower than recommended temperature.
The baking results should help you to decide how much
of an adjustment is needed.
To Adjust Oven Temperature:
1. Push the BAKE pad.
2. Set the temperature to 550°F (287°C) by pushing
and holding the UP ARROW pad.
3. Within 2 seconds, push and hold the BAKE pad until
the special 2 digit display appears. Release the BAKE
pad. The display now indicates the amount of de-
grees offset between the original factory temperature
setting and the current temperature setting. If the
oven control has the original factory calibration, the
display will read "00."
4. The temperature can now be adjusted up or down
35°F (17°C), in 5°F (1°C) steps by pushing and
holding the UP or DOWN ARROW pad. Adjust until
the desired amount of degrees offset appears in the
display. When lowering the oven temperature, a mi-
nus sign (-) will appear before the number to indicate
that the oven will be cooler by the displayed amount
of degrees.
5. When you have made the desired adjustment, push
the CLEAR OFF pad to go back to the time of day
display.
Í NOTE
The adjustment made will not change the self-cleaning
temperature.
