Flat-bottomed canners are recommended. Use of water
bath canners with rippled bottoms may extend the time
required to bring the water to a boil.
Oven Controls
To Adjust the Thermostat
1. Pull the Oven Temp knob off the range and look
at the back side. To make an adjustment, loosen
(approximately one turn), but do not completely
remove, the two screws on the back of the knob.
2. With the back of the knob facing you, hold the outer
edge of the knob with one hand and turn the front of
the knob with the other hand.
To increase the oven temperature, move the top
screw toward the right. You’ll hear a click for each
notch you move the knob.
To decrease the oven temperature, move the top
screw toward the left.
Each click will change the oven temperature
approximately 10°F. (Range is plus or minus
60°F from the arrow.) We suggest that you make
the adjustment one click from the original setting
and check oven performance before making any
additional adjustments.
3. After the adjustment is
made, retighten screws
so they are snug, but be
careful not to overtighten.
4. Replace the knob,
matching the flat area
of the knob to the shaft,
and check performance.
