Have you checked it with an oven thermometer yet? Did you use one in
your old oven? It could have run hot. Get an oven thermometer and
check your new oven. The unit should be under warranty - so even if
it reads correctly, call in a technician. I had an oven problem once
where the thermometer read correctly, but baked goods didn't cook
properly and it was due to the thermostat not cycling on when it
should have. So, have a pro take a look at it while it's still free.
