Oven temperatures are carefully tested for accuracy at the factory. It is normal to notice some baking or browning

differences between a new oven and an old one= As ranges get older, the oven temperature can shift.

You may adjust the oven temperature if you think the oven is not baking or browning correctly. To decide how much to

change the temperature, set the temperature 25° higher or lower than your recipe recommends, then bake. The results

of the "test" should give you an idea of how much to adjust the temperature.

To adjust the oven temperature:

1. PressBake. Bake

2. Enter 550° by pressing the A pad.

3. Pressand hold the Bake pad for several seconds or until 0° appears in the display.

The self-clean cycle uses above-normal cooking temperatures to automatically clean the oven nterior. Do not force the oven door or lock lever open. This mayresult in exposure to high

temperatures and be a burn hazard. It is normal for flare-ups, smoking, or flaming to occur during

cleaning if the oven is heavily soiled. It is better to clean the oven regularly rather than to wait until there isa heavy build-

up of soii in the oven. During the cleaning process, the kitchen should be well

ventilated to get rid of normal odors associated with cleaning.
