OVEN CONTROLS FUNCTIONS
Adjusting the Oven Temperature
Your appliance has been factory calibrated and tested to
ensure an accurate baking temperature. For the first few
uses, follow your recipe times and temperature recommen-
dations carefully. If you think the oven is cooking too hot or
too cool for your recipe times, you can adjust the control so
the oven cooks hotter or cooler than the temperature
displayed.
Important:
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 20ºF to 40ºF (11ºC to 23ºC) from actual tempera-
tures.
