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 only affect baking and roasting temperatures; it does not affect broiling or self-cleaning temperatures.
The adjustment will be retained in memory after a power failure.
To Adjust the Oven Thermostat (on some models)
Press the Bake and Broil Hi/Lo pads (on
double oven models, use the upper oven
controls) at the same time for 3 seconds
until the display shows SF. Then proceed
with steps 2 through 4, using the pads
for the upper or lower oven.
Press the Bake pad. A two-digit number
shows in the display.
On models with number pads,
press Bake again to alternate between
increasing and decreasing the oven
temperature.
The oven temperature can be adjusted
up to (+) 35°F hotter or (-) 35°F cooler.
On models with number pads, press
them the same way you read them.
For example, to change the oven
temperature 15°F, press 1 and 5.
On models with Temp + and – pads,
press them to increase or decrease the
temperature in 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.
To Adjust the Oven Thermostat (on some models)
Pull the OVEN knob off the shaft, look at the
back of the knob and note the current setting
before making any adjustment. The knob is
factory set with the top screw directly under
the pointer.
Pull off the OVEN knob.
Loosen both screws on back of
the knob.
Hold both parts of the knob as shown in
the illustration of the back of the OVEN
knob and turn so the lower screw moves
in the desired direction.
You will hear and feel the notches as you turn
the knob. Each notch changes temperature
about 10° Fahrenheit.
Tighten the screws.
Return the OVEN knob to the oven.
Re-check oven performance before making any
additional adjustments.
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 affect 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.
Turn the disk counterclockwise to
increase the oven temperature.
Turn the disk clockwise to decrease
the oven temperature.
