Cooking with Meat Probe

Use the probe feature for best results when cooking
foods such as roasts, hams, or poultry.
The probe feature, when set correctly, will signal an
alert when the internal food temperature reaches
the desired set target temperature.
When active, the probe displays the internal food
temperature which is visible in the display during
the cooking process. This eliminates any guesswork
or the need to open the oven door to check the
thermometer.
For meats like poultry and roasts, using a probe to
check internal temperature is the safest method to
ensure properly cooked food.
CAUTION
Do not use kitchen utensils to pull on the probe
cable or handles. Always insert and remove the
probe using the provided handles, as shown in
Figure 13, and always use a pot holder to protect
hands from possible burns.

CAUTION
Do not store the probe inside the oven. Use only
the original probe provided. Connecting any other
probe or device could result in damage to the
oven control, electronics, and the receptacle.
Before starting self clean, double check that the
probe is removed from the oven interior. De-
frost frozen foods completely before inserting the
probe.

Proper placement of probe in food.

Insert the probe so that the probe tip rests inside
the center of the thickest part of meat or food
(see illustration below). For best results, do not al-
low the probe temperature sensor to contact bone,
fat, gristle, or the cookware.
