Using the Temperature Probe Feature

For many foods, especially roasts and poultry, testing the internal temperature is the best method to insure properly cooked food. The Temperature Probe gets the exact temperature you desire without having to guess.

iMPORTANT:

1.Use only the probe supplied with your appliance; any other may result in damage to the probe or the appliance.

2.Handle the Temperature Probe carefully when inserting and removing it from the food and outlet.

3.Do not use tongs to pull the cable when inserting or removing the Probe. It could damage the Probe.

4.Defrost your food completely before inserting the Probe to avoid breaking it.

5.Never leave or store the Temperature Probe inside the oven when not in use.

6.To prevent the possibility of burns, carefully unplug the Temperature Probe using hot pads.

Proper Temperature Probe Placement:

1.Always insert the probe so that the tip rests in the center of the thickest part of the meat. Do not allow probe to touch bone, fat, gristle or pan.

2.For bone-in ham or lamb, insert the Probe into the center of the lowest large muscle or joint. For dishes such as meat loaf or casseroles, insert the Probe into the center of the food. When cooking fish, insert the Probe from just above the gill into the meatiest area, parallel to the backbone.

3.For whole poultry (chicken, turkey, etc.), insert the probe into the thickest part of the inner thigh from below and parallel to the leg (see figure t).
