Operating the Oven

Using the Meat Probe

When you cook foods like roasts and poultry, the internal temperature is the best way to tell when the food is prop- erly cooked. Your oven’s meat probe is an easy way to take the guesswork out of roasting. You can use it to cook food to the exact temperature you desire. The probe can be set from 100°F to 200°F.

4.

Allow the oven to preheat. Excessive browning may

 

occur if the meat is placed in the oven during preheat

 

mode (when “PRE-”appears on the display).

5.

Once the oven has preheated (“PRE-” disappears),

 

put the meat in the oven using potholders. Insert the

 

meat probe plug into the connector inside the oven.

6.

Push the PROBE key. The preset probe tem-

 

perature (160°F), as well as the probe symbol,

 

will appear on the display. If you want to cook

 

using a different probe temperature, enter

 

it on the keypad. Use the USDA Minimum Safe

 

Cooking Temperature Chart on the next page as a

Skewer

guideline for the type of meat you are cooking.

7. Press START · CONTINUE. If you do not press START

· CONTINUE, the probe mode will not start.

warning

•To avoid the possibility of burns, use hot pads to handle, connect, and unplug the meat probe when the oven is hot.

•Use the handles to insert and remove the meat probe’s skewer and to connect it to the oven. Pushing or pulling on either end of the cable could damage the meat probe. To avoid breaking the meat probe, make sure the food is completely defrosted before inserting the skewer.

•To prevent damage, never leave the meat probe inside the oven when it is not being used, especially when broiling or during the self clean cycle.

•Using a meat probe other than the one provided with your oven may result in damage to the probe and/or the oven.

note

•The meat probe does not work with broil, convection broil or Sabbath modes. If you plug in the meat probe when using the above modes, the meat probe symbol will flash indicating an error.

•If the meat probe is accidently disconnected after the PROBE key is pressed, the meat probe symbol will flash and the error message “OPn” will appear on the display.

Meat Probe Instructions

1.Prepare the meat for cooking prior to setting the oven. Insert the meat probe skewer into the center of the meat. Make sure that the skewer is not inside any fatty portions of the meat and does not touch any bones. The point should rest in the thickest part of the meat. When you are cooking fowl, the tip of the skewer should rest toward the center of the bird.

2.Before placing the meat in the oven and with the door closed, push the BAKE, CONV BAKE, PURE CONV or CONV ROAST key. The preset temperature will appear on the display. If you want to cook using a different oven temperature, enter it on the number keypad.

3.Press START · CONTINUE.

When the meat probe is in use, the oven will automati- cally control the cooking time. The temperature on the display during cooking is the temperature measured inside the meat. The oven will continue to cook until the meat temperature reaches the temperature you have entered. When the meat is done, the oven will go into hold mode. The temperature will reduce to 150°F for two hours to keep the meat warm and safe for serving. To prevent sick- ness, do not allow foods to remain in the oven after it has turned off. Press CANCEL · SECURE to cancel hold mode and turn the oven completely off.

To change the meat probe temperature during cooking:

1.Press PROBE. The current probe temperature setting will appear on the display.

2.Enter the new temperature. The oven will automati- cally change to the new probe temperature. If you do not enter a temperature, the oven will continue to cook at the current setting.

To change the cooking mode during meat probe cooking:

1.Press the CANCEL · SECURE key.

2.Press the BAKE, CONV BAKE, PURE CONV or CONV ROAST key. If you want to cook using a temperature different than the oven’s preset temperature, enter it on the number keypad.

3.Press START · CONTINUE.

To cancel meat probe operation while the oven is cooking:

Press the PROBE key twice. Disconnect the meat probe from the connector and remove it from the oven. The oven will return to any previous settings that were entered before the PROBE key was pressed.
