perature you desire is simple and

when
the food is done and holds that

until you touch the

Cooking Tips
. Use a lower power level setting;
it will heat evenly even though
requiring more time.
. Be sure frozen food has been
completely defrosted before
inserting probe. Probe may break
off if used in frozen foods.
Always insert probe into the
center of meaty areas; take care
not to touch the fat or the bone.
Insert probe as horizontally
as
possible into foods as directed in
the recipes. Make sure the handle
does not touch the food.
Use the clip to keep the probe in
place while heating.

Q. After I followed
the
steps and
'
touched
START,
a signal sounded
and oven did not start. What is
wrong?

Temp Cook?
