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.
To Adjust the Thermostat
Pull the
OVEN CONTROL
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 CONTROL
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 CONTROL
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 CONTROL
knob to
the oven.
Re-check oven performance before making any
additional adjustments.
Back of the OVEN CONTROL knob.
Lower screw moves toward hotter
or cooler.
The lower screw moves toward
HOTTER to increase the temperature.
The lower screw moves toward
COOLER to decrease the temperature.
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 affects 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.
