Restoring Factory Default Settings

Your appliance was set with predetermined (default) oven 
control settings. Over time, users may have made changes to 
these settings. The following options may have been modified 
since the appliance was new:

12 or 24 hr display mode

Continuous bake or 12 Hour Energy Savings mode

Silent or audible control

Oven temperature display (Fahrenheit or Celsius)

Oven temperature adjustments using the User Program-
mable Offset (UPO).

To restore oven control to factory default settings:

 

 

If 

you choose to restore any of the options to a 

factory default setting using this method, all of the above user 
settings will be restored to the factory default settings. This 
includes the oven temperature offset that will reset to (0) zero.

1.

Press and hold 7 on numeric keys until acceptance tone 
sounds (about 6 seconds).

2. Press 

. The control has been reset with the default 

settings.

Adjusting Oven Temperatures

Your appliance has been factory calibrated and tested to ensure 
accurate baking temperatures. For the first few uses, follow your 
recipe times and temperature recommendations carefully. If you 
think the oven is cooking too hot or too cool for your recipe 
times, you may adjust the control so the oven cooks hotter or 
cooler than the oven temperature displayed.

The oven temperature may be increased as much as +35°F 
(+19°C) or decreased -35°F (-19°C) from the factory calibrated 
settings.

To increase (+) or decrease (-) the oven temperature by 20°F:

1.

Press and hold Bake until the control produces an audible 
tone (about 6 seconds). The factory offset temperature of 
0 (zero) should appear in the display.

2. Enter 2 0 using numeric keys.

3. Press Self Clean to toggle between plus (+) if increasing 

temperature or minus (-) if decreasing the temperature.

4. Press 

 to accept change.

Important note: 

Oven temperature adjustments will not change the Broil or 
Self Clean function temperatures.

If the temperature shows an adjustment of -20°F, and a 
+20°F adjustment is needed, toggle between the minus (-) 
or plus (+) in the display by pressing the Self Clean key. 

Do not use oven thermometers such as those found in 
grocery stores to check the temperature settings inside your 
oven. These oven thermometers may vary as much as 20 to 
40°F

 

degrees from actual temperatures.

The oven temperature adjustment may be made if your 
oven control is set to display temperatures in °C (Celsius). 
Minimum and maximum settings for Celsius range from plus 
(+)19°C to minus (-) 19°
