Adjust the oven thermostat--Do it yourself!

Youmay 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.

Donot use thermometers, such as those found in grocery stores, to check the temperature setting of your oven.
These thermometers may vary20-40 degrees.

NOTE,"This adjustment will only affect baking and roasting temperatures; #does not affect broiling, convection or
self-cleaning temperatures. Theadjustment will be retained in memory after apower failure.

Thetype ofmargarine will affectbakingperformance!

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. Thelower the fat

content of aspread product, the more noticeable these differences become.

Federal standards require l)rodu('ts labeled "margarine" to contain at least 80% fiat by weight. Ixmqht spreads, on the

other hand, contain less tilt and more water Tile high-moisture content (ff these spreads affect the texture and flavor

of baked goods. For best results with umr old ti_\'orite redpes, use mmgarine, butter or stick spreads containing at least
