Automatic Roasting - GE JKP76 Use And Care Manual

Auto Roast uses the temperature probe to cook
to the desired serving temperature. Unlike Temp
Cook/Hold, which uses a single power level, Auto
Roast uses up to 3 power settings which automatically
switch during roasting, thus providing even, tender
cooking results without overcooking.
