• Acts as a temperature-sensitive switch that opens or closes at a set temperature to limit heat.
• Prevents the oven from exceeding safe temperatures by cutting power to the heating circuit when triggered.
• Commonly used when the oven won't reach or maintain set temperatures, or when it overheats and shuts down.
• Works as a safety/limit device in the appliance's temperature control system.

• One thermostat temperature limiter

• Disconnect power at the breaker or unplug the appliance before servicing.
