Thermostat adjustment
The temperature in the oven has been preset at the factory. When first using the oven, be sure to
follow recipe times and temperatures. If you think the oven is too hot or too cool, the temperature
in the oven can be adjusted. Before adjusting, test a recipe by using a temperature setting that is
higher or lower than the recommended temperature. The baking results should help you to decide
how much of an adjustment is needed.
The oven temperature can be adjusted ±35°F (±19°C ).
