Food probe
The food probe allows the temperature
to be monitored 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
all the way to the handle. 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 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.
Transmission of the core temperature to
the oven electronics occurs via radio
signal between the transmitter in the
handle of the food probe and the
receiver antenna in the back panel, as
soon as you place the food in the oven
compartment with the food probe
inserted.
Efficient radio transmission is only
guaranteed if the oven door is closed. 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 food probe,
do not leave it in the oven
compartment during cooking. Always
put it back into the storage sleeve in
the door.
When to use the food probe
Some automatic programmes and
special applications will prompt you to
use the food probe.
You can also use the food probe with
User programmes and with the
following functions:
-
Auto roast
-
Fan plus
-
Intensive bake
-
Conventional heat
-
Moisture plus + Auto roast
-
