Jb970 - GE JB970 series Owner's Manual And Installation Instructions

Using the probe.
For many foods, especially roasts and poultry, internal food temperature is the best test for doneness. The
temperature probe takes the guesswork out of roasting by cooking foods to the exact doneness you want.
The temperature probe has a
skewer-like probe at one end and a
plug at the other end that goes into
the outlet in the oven.

Use of probes other than the one
provided with this product may result in
damage to the probe.
Use the handles of the probe and plug
when inserting and removing them from
the food and outlet.
To avoid damaging your probe, do not use
tongs to pull on the cable when removing it.
To avoid breaking the probe, make sure food is
completely defrosted before inserting.
After preparing the meat and placing it
on a trivet or on the broiler pan grid,
follow these directions for proper probe
placement.
Lay the probe on the outside of the
meat along the top or side and mark
with your finger where the edge of
the meat comes to on the probe. The
point should rest in the center of the
thickest meaty part of the roast.
Insert the probe completely into the
meat. It should not touch the bone,
fat or gristle.
For roasts with no bone, insert the probe
into the meatiest part of the roast. For
bone-in ham or lamb, insert the probe
into the center of the lowest large muscle
or joint.
Insert the probe into the center of dishes
such as meat loaf or casseroles. When
cooking fish, insert the probe from just
above the gill into the meatiest area,
parallel to the backbone.
Insert the probe into the meatiest part of
the inner thigh from below and parallel
to the leg of a whole turkey.
