OVEN TEMPERATURE CONTROL

IMPORTANT: Do not use a thermometer to
measure oven temperature because opening
the oven door and element or burner cycling
may give incorrect readings.
The oven provides accurate temperatures;
however, it may cook faster or slower than your
previous oven, so the temperature calibration
can be adjusted. It can be changed in Fahren-
heit or Celsius.
A minus sign means the oven will be cooler
by the displayed amount. The absence of a
minus sign means the oven will be warmer by
the displayed amount. Use the following chart
as a guide.
