Adjust the oven thermostat--Do it yourselfl GEApp,ances.coYou may find that your new oven cooks differently than the one it replaced. Useyour new oven for a few weeks to become more familiarwith it. If you still think your new oven is too hot or too cold,you can adjust the thermostat yourself.Oo not use thermometers, such as those found in grocery stores,to check the temperature setting ofyour oven. Thesethermometers mayvary 20-40 degrees.NOTE"This adjustment will only affect baking and roasting temperatures; it does not affect broiling or self-cleaningtemperatures.

Ifyou decreasethe 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. The lower the fat content ofa spread product, the more noticeable these differences become.Federal standards require products labeled "margarine" to contain at least 80% fat by weight. Low-fat spreads, on the other hand,contain lessfat and more water. The high moisture content of these spreads affect the texture and flavor of baked goods. For bestresults with your old favorite recipes, use margarine, butter or stick spreads containing at least 70% vegetable oil.15
