Probe (cont'd)
Proper probe placement in food:
• Always insert the probe so that the probe tip rests
inside at the center of the thickest part of meat or food
(See Fig. 1). For best results, do not allow the probe
temperature sensor to contact bone, fat, gristle or the
cookware.
• For bone-in ham or lamb, insert the probe into the
center of lowest large muscle or joint. For dishes such
as meat loaf or casseroles, insert the probe into center
of food. When cooking fish, insert meat probe just
above the gill.
• For whole poultry or turkey, fully insert the probe
sensor into the thickest part of inner thigh, just below
the leg (See Fig. 2).

display). keep warm will maintain the oven
temperature at 170° F (77°C) for 3 hours unless
otherwise cancelled.
