Adjust the oven thermostat--Do it yourself!
ge.com
Youmay find that your new oven cooks differently than the one # 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 not affect the broiling or the self-cleaning temperatures. The adjustment will be retained
in memory after a power failure.

The type of margarine will affect baking pertormance!
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 a spread product, the more noticeable these differences become.
Federal standards require products labeled "ii/ai'gaiJne" to cont_lin at least 80% tilt by weight, I,ow tilt spreads, on tile
other hand, contain less tilt and more water: Tile high moisture content of these spreads affects tile mxtm'e and flavor
of baked goods. For best results with u)ur old tm.o_ite recipes, use mmgmine, butter or stick spreads containing at least
70% vegetable oil.
