Cooking by Temperature
Temp Cook/Hold
(Auto Roast Code 7)
Internal temperature is the best
test of doneness for many foods.
Use Auto Roast code 7 and
the temperature probe to Temp
Cook/Hold and take the guesswork
out of cooking because the oven
automatically switches to "Hold"
setting after reaching the preset
food temperature and maintains that
temperature for up to one hour or until
you touch the CLEAR/OFF pad.
You might prefer to use Auto Roast
code 7 to enter a desired food
temperature, power level, or Hold
temperature for up to twelve hours
after food is done.
