Oven Calibration - Oven Temperature Control Knob

If your gas or electric oven temperature does not match your expectations, you can calibrate (adjust) your oven temperature. The steps for oven calibration depend on the type of oven controls.

 

For models with an oven temperature control knob:

1. Pull the OVEN TEMP knob off the shaft, look at the back of the knob and note the current setting before making any adjustments.

2. Loosen both screws on the back of the knob. Each notch changes the temperature by 10 degrees F.

   • To increase the oven temperature, move the pointer 1 notch toward the words "Make Hotter."

   • To decrease the oven temperature, turn the pointer 1 notch toward the words "Make Cooler." Tighten the screws. Replace the knob, matching the flat area of the knob to the shaft.
