adjusting the oven temPerature

Your oven thermostat has been precisely set at the factory.

This setting may differ from your previous oven, however, so

your recipe times may not give you the results you expect.

If you think that the oven is cooking too hot or cool for your

recipe times, you can adjust the thermostat so that the oven

cooks hotter or cooler than the temperature displayed.

To Adjust Oven Temperature:

1. Press and hold the BAKE pad for 8 seconds. The

display now indicates the amount of degrees 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 “0”.

2. The temperature can now be adjusted up or down

35°F or 19°C, in 1°F or 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.

3. When you have made the desired adjustment, wait 5

seconds or press cancel to accept the change.
