For many foods, especially masts and poultry,internal food temperature is the best test for doneness. The
temperature probe takes the guesswork out of masting by cooking foods to the exact doneness you want.
The temperatureprobe has a
skewer-likeprobe at one end and
a plug at the other end that goes
into the outlet in the oven.
Use of probes other than the one
provided with this product may result in
damage to the probe or oven control.
Use the handles of the probe and plug
when inserting and removing them from
the food and outlet.
