IMPORTANTSAFETYNOtiCE
The Cafifornia Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act requires the Governor of Cafifornia to
publish a list of substances known to the state to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive
harm, and requires businesses to warn customers of potential exposure to such substances.
Thefiberglass insulation in self-clean ovens gives off a very small amount of carbon monoxide during
the cleaning cycle. Exposure can be minimized by venting with an open window or using a ventilation
fan or hood.

Adjustthe oventhermostat--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 not affect the broiling or the self-cleaning temperatures. The adjustment will be
retained in memory after a power failure.

Thetype ofmargarine will affect bakingperformance!
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 ff 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 "illai'gai'Jne" to contain at least 80% tilt by weight, ixm_lht spI'eads,
on the other hand, contain less tilt and more water: The high moisture content ot these spreads affects the
texture and flavor oI baked goods. For best results with yore" old thvoi_ke recipes, use inalgai_hle, buttei" of
stick spreads containing at least 70% vegetable oil.
