RESETTING THE OVEN TEMPERATURE CONTROLS
Does either oven seem to be hotter or colder than your old oven at the same
settings? The temperature setting in your old oven may have changed gradually
over the years. The accurate setting of your new ovens can seem different. If you
think either or both oven temperatures need adjusting, follow these steps:
OFF
Pull out the center
of the Oven Tem­
perature Control, 2. Loosen the lock­
ing screw.
3. To lower the tem­
perature, move

deserto LO. Each
notch equals
about 10 E (5 0).
Tighten the locking screw. Replace the knob.

When broiling is done,
turn both knobs to OFF.

and close the door.
Brciling can be slewed (upper oven only) by setting the Upper Oven Tempera­
ture Control to a setting lower than BROIL. When it's on BROIL, the broil element
is on all the time. When it’s on a temperature, the element turns off and on. The
lower the temperature setting, the shorter are the times when the element is on.
