What To Know
- Celsius, widely used in most countries, measures temperature based on the freezing point of water at 0°C and the boiling point at 100°C.
- Fahrenheit, commonly used in the United States, measures temperature based on the freezing point of water at 32°F and the boiling point at 212°F.
- Power cycle your oven by unplugging it for a few minutes and plugging it back in.
Are you struggling to adjust your Samsung oven‘s temperature settings from Celsius to Fahrenheit? Don’t worry, you’re not alone. Many users encounter this challenge when first using their oven. This comprehensive guide will provide you with step-by-step instructions to help you make the switch effortlessly.
Understanding Temperature Scales
Before we dive into the conversion process, let’s briefly understand the two temperature scales: Celsius and Fahrenheit. Celsius, widely used in most countries, measures temperature based on the freezing point of water at 0°C and the boiling point at 100°C. Fahrenheit, commonly used in the United States, measures temperature based on the freezing point of water at 32°F and the boiling point at 212°F.
