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
Press the
BAKE
and
BROIL HI/LO
pads at the same time for 3 seconds
until the display shows
SF.
Press the
BAKE
pad. A two digit
number shows in the display.
The oven temperature can be
adjusted up as much as 35°F or
down as much as 35°F. Press the
+
pad to increase the temperature
by 1 degree increments. Press the
–
pad to decrease the temperature
by 1 degree increments.
When you have made the
adjustment, press the
START
pad
to go back to the time of day display.
Use your oven as you would
normally.

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.
