SYMPTOM

Oven Temperature Seems Inaccurate (Calibration Adjustment)

Appliance: Thermador Dual Fuel Range Models: PRD304GHU, PRD364GDHU, PRD366GHU, PRD486GDHU, PRD364NLHU, PRD486NLHU, PRD484NCHU, PRD305PH, PRD364JDGU, PRD366JGU, PRD486JDGU

What This Means

The oven temperature may seem higher or lower than the set temperature. On Pro Grand models with a digital display, the oven temperature can be calibrated up or down by 5°F increments using the + and - buttons. On Pro Harmony models (analog controls), the temperature cannot be user-adjusted — call service if temperature seems significantly off.

🔧 How to Fix

  1. For Pro Grand models: Access the temperature calibration setting via the oven display controls.
  2. Use the - button to lower calibration by 5°F, or the + button to raise by 5°F.
  3. Consider using an oven thermometer to verify the actual temperature before adjusting calibration.
  4. For Pro Harmony models: Temperature calibration is not user-adjustable. Contact Thermador service if the temperature is significantly off.
