To change an oven from Celsius to Fahrenheit, follow these steps:
1. Start by turning off the oven and allowing it to cool down.
2. Locate the control panel on the oven and find the temperature settings.
3. Look for a button or option that allows you to switch between Celsius and Fahrenheit.
4. Press the button or select the option to change the temperature unit to Fahrenheit.
5. Once the unit is changed, turn on the oven and set the desired temperature using Fahrenheit.
6. The oven will now display and heat up to the selected temperature in Fahrenheit.
Nowadays, many modern ovens have the option to change the temperature from Celsius to Fahrenheit and vice versa. By default, ovens made in the United States are usually set to Fahrenheit. If you are comfortable with Fahrenheit, there is no need to change anything. However, if you prefer Celsius, you need to learn how to change the settings. Furthermore, there may be instances where the oven’s temperature has been mistakenly set to Celsius, and you want to revert it to Fahrenheit. Although the steps may vary slightly from one manufacturer to another, the changes are simple to make with a few quick steps.
Determining the Current Temperature Setting
Before changing the temperature setting, you must first determine if the current temperature shown on the display is in Celsius or Fahrenheit. When measured in Celsius, an oven operates at temperatures ranging from 90 degrees to 260 degrees. The equivalent in Fahrenheit is 200 to 500 degrees. If the controls are not going above 290 degrees, then it is currently set in Celsius.
Most models make it easy to change from Celsius to Fahrenheit and vice versa. However, the exact steps may vary slightly from one manufacturer to another.
Changing the Temperature Setting for GE Ovens
For GE ranges, press both the “Bake” and “Broil HI/LO” buttons simultaneously and hold them for five seconds. The display will show “SF.” After that, press “Broil HI/LO” only until the display shows “C.” Pressing the button again will change it to “F.” To save the change, press “Start.”
Changing the Temperature Setting for Whirlpool Ovens
To change the temperature of most Whirlpool ovens, press and hold the “Custom Broil” button for about five seconds. You will hear a tone, and the sign “CВ°” will appear briefly on the display. Press and hold “Custom Broil” again to change it back to Fahrenheit. In some Maytag ovens, pressing “Kitchen Timer” will allow you to change between Fahrenheit and Celsius and vice versa. In some Kenmore models, pressing “Broil” for five seconds will change the display to Celsius, and pressing it again will change it back to Fahrenheit. Refer to your oven’s user manual for specific instructions.
