Temperature Probe - KitchenAid KEBS277W Use And Care Manual

Temperature Probe
(Single/Upper Oven)
The temperature probe is the most
accurate guide to the degree of
doneness of meat. Use it when
roasting any type of meat or poultry.
1. Insert the Temperature Probe
into the center of the thickest
portion of meat or into the inner
thigh or breast of poultry, away
from fat or bone.
2. Place pan with meat on rack that
has been centered in the oven.
3. Open the Temperature Probe cover
located on the left side of the oven
wall. Insert plug into jack. (Keep the
top of the probe as far as possible
from the heat source.)
4. Close the oven door.
What happens during this
selection?
The oven will begin heating. The
heating elements will cycleon and off
to maintain proper temperature. The
rear convection fan will come on in
addition to the heating elements when
CONVECTION BAKE is selected. The
red hand of the Meat Thermometer
Guide will move up the scale to
indicate the current internal meat
temperature. When the red hand
reaches the white hand a continuous
beep will sound indicating that the
selected internal meat temperature has
been reached. The oven will continue
to heat and the beep will continue
to sound until the oven is turned off.
To turn off oven and warning
signal:
1. Turn the Selector to OFF and the
Temperature Control fully
counterclockwise.
2. Unplug the Temperature Probe
using an oven mitt or potholder.

"'Roasting chart" or "convection
roasting chart" for internal
meat temperatures, pages 15 - 16.
7. Set the Temperature Control to
the desired temperature.
