Range & Wall Oven - Calibrating Oven Using 3x3 Non-Scrolling Keypad Control

If your oven's set temperature is too hot or not hot enough, you may need to calibrate (adjust) your oven's thermostat. The oven set temperature can be increased or decreased up to 35 degrees Fahrenheit by accessing the menu on the control panel.

 

  • This adjustment will be retained in memory after a power failure and will not affect the broiling or self-cleaning temperatures.

  • On double oven models, the upper and lower ovens are adjusted separately.
