Food probe
The food probe enables you to monitor
the temperature precisely during a
cooking programme.
How it works
The metal tip of the food probe must be
fully inserted into the centre of the food.
There is a temperature sensor in the
metal tip which measures the core
temperature of the food during cooking.
The temperature sensor is located
approx. 2 cm behind the tip of the
probe. Push the metal tip into the food
so that the temperature sensor is in
the middle (see "Important information
for using the food probe").
The rise in the core temperature of the
food reflects the progress of cooking.
Set a lower or higher core temperature,
depending on whether you want your
roast to be rare, medium or well-done.
The core temperature can be set up to
99 °C. Information on food and
respective core temperatures can be
found in the cooking charts at the end
of this book.
The cooking duration will be similar
when cooking with or without the food
probe.

The core temperature value is sent via
radio signal from the transmitter in the
handle of the food probe via the
antenna in the back wall of the oven to
the appliance's electronic unit as soon
as the food with the food probe is
placed in the oven.
Accurate transmission is only possible
when the door is shut. If the door is
opened during a cooking process, e.g.
to baste the food, radio signal
transmission is interrupted. It will only
resume when the door is closed. It will
take a few seconds before the current
core temperature appears again in the
display.
The temperature sensor will be
damaged at temperatures over
100 °C. However there is no danger
of damage occurring if it is inserted
into food as the maximum core
temperature that can be set is 99 °C.
If you are not using the wireless food
probe, do not keep it in the oven
during cooking. Always put it back
into the storage sleeve in the door.
