Summary of Test Methods4.1 Thermostat CalibrationThe accuracy of the oventhermostat is checked at 350F (17

22、7C), the set point for all butthe browning test, which is 300F (149C). This is accom-plished by comparing the ovens temperature control settingwith the temperature at the center of the ovens cavity. Ifnecessary, the control is adjusted so that the maximum differ-ence between its reading and the temp

23、erature at the center ofthe cavity is no more than 65F (62.8C).4.2 Preheat Energy Consumption and TimeThe time andenergy required to preheat the oven from room temperature (756 5F) to 340F is determined.4.3 Energy Input RateThe input rate of the oven isdetermined to check whether the oven is operati
