Problem Possible Cause What To Do
My new oven doesn't
cook like my old one.
Is something wrong
with the temperature
settings?
Your new oven has a different cooking
system from your old oven and therefore
may cook differently than your old oven.
For the first few uses, follow your recipe times
and temperatures carefully and use rack positions
recommended in the Cooking Guide. If you still
think your new oven is too hot or too cold, you
can adjust the temperature yourself to meet your
specific cooking preference. See the Special
Features section.

properly

Rack position is incorrect or rack is not level. See the Cooking Modes section and Cooking Guide.

size being used.
