24Consumer Support Troubleshooting Tips Care and Cleaning Operating Instructions Safety Instructions 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 tobecome more familiar with it. If you still think your new oven is too hot or too cold, you can adjust the thermostatyourself.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 F (11–22 degrees C).NOTE: This adjustment will only affect baking and roasting temperatures; it will not affect broiling, convection orself-cleaning temperatures. The adjustment will be retained in memory after a power failure.To Adjust the ThermostatTouch the BROIL HI/LO and BAKEpads at the same time for 3 secondsuntil the display shows SF.Touch the BAKE pad. A two-digitnumber shows in the display.Touch BAKE again to alternatebetween increasing and decreasingthe oven temperature.The oven temperature can beadjusted up to (+) 35ºF (19°C)hotter or (-) 35ºF (19°C) cooler.Touch the number pads the sameway you read them. For example, tochange the oven temperature 15ºF(8°C), touch 1 and 5.When you have made theadjustment, touch the START pad togo back to the time of day display.Use your oven as you wouldnormally.+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 youdecrease 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 fatcontent of a spread product, the more noticeable these differences become.U.S. federal standards require products labeled “margarine” to contain at least 80% fat by weight. Low-fat spreads, onthe other hand, contain less fat and more water. The high moisture content of these spreads affects the texture andflavor of baked goods. For best results with your old favorite recipes, use margarine, butter or stick spreads containingat least 70% vegetable oil.
