Your Amana Radarange Oven has an automatic temperature control
system which allows you to cook food to the precise temperature
desired. You'll find this feature particularly helpful for cooking meats to
the exact temperature you want. You can also use it to reheat leftovers,
to warm soups and beverages and for many other cooking tasks.
The temperature probe is not intended for use as a candy
thermometer. The highest temperature sensed by the probe is 190 ° F,
while most candies require temperatures of 230 ° F or higher. The
Amana Radarange microwave oven Touchmatic Candymaker (model
MCT-t) may be used with your Amana Touchmatic Radarange Oven.
See your Amana dealer for ordering information
Do not confuse the temperature probe with the Candymaker. The
Touchmatic Candymaker has brown beads and a white cord with the
word "Candymaker" on the handle. The temperature probe (the one
that came with your oven) is all brown.
Special Hints for Using the
Temperature Probe
Do
1. Insert probe as instructed in recipe or as shown at lower left.
a. Meats
With the sensor tip in the thickest section, halfway between the
center and outside edge of the meat, away from fat and bone. Be
sure the probe is inserted into the largest lean area of the meat
b. Casseroles, Leftovers
-- With tip in center of casserole or dish, not touching bottom or
sides
c. Beverages
With tip in center of liquid.
2. Be sure probe is securely inserted into food. If probe should
accidentally fall out, the food will not cook properly. If the probe
tends to slip out of the food, loop the cord (as shown in the beverage
drawing at left). The cord can be secured in the slit in the bead
closest to the probe plug. Simply loop the cord, then press a section
of the cord into the slit in the bead.
