OPERATING FEATURES & Functions

Display High/Low Probe Temperatures:

To observe the recorded maximum or minimum probe temperature when cooking by probe, press the following keys while the probe remains in the product:

Highest Temperature: Press Probe Key and Up Arrow Key at same time.

Lowest Temperature: Press Probe Key and Down Arrow Key at same time.

Probe Usage:

When the oven probe remains inserted in the probe bracket, the LED temperature display will indicate the ambient air temperature inside the oven. To use the probe for cooking remove it from the bracket and wipe the full length of the metal probe with a disposable alcohol pad to clean and sanitize before using.

Only the tip of the probe senses the internal product temperature; therefore, it is important the tip be placed correctly in the product for internal temperature accuracy. Push the probe tip halfway into the product, positioning the tip at the center of the food mass. When inserting the probe into solid foods such as meat roast or poultry breasts, push the probe in from a straight downward position or in from the side to the center position. If placing into a semi-liquid or liquid product, the probe cable must be secured to keep the probe positioned properly. Do not let the probe tip touch the edges, bottom or side of a container. Tape the probe cable to the lip or edge of the container.

NOTE: When cooking by probe, insert the probe into the raw product after the oven has been preheated.

wait one full minute to allow the probe temperature to decrease to the internal temperature of the product. Press the start button to begin the cooking process after this probe temperature adjustment period. A false probe reading of the internal product temperature will cause the oven to default to a holding temperature.

Probe Calibration:

1.To verify product probe calibration, place the probe in a glass of ice water.

2.After allowing the temperature to settle, press the probe key for five (5) seconds. Compare reading against 32°F (0°C).

3.If calibration is required, the unit must be in the power up hold mode. From the off state turn the unit on. The unit will begin to operate in the power up hold mode, press the probe key for eight (8) seconds until the unit beeps twice and a temperature is displayed. Adjust the probe offset temperature by pressing the up or down arrows to increase or decrease the temperature. Repeat step 2 to verify.

4.Repeat steps 1 and 2 to verify the probe calibration as necessary.

Sous Vide Cooking:

With the oven in a preheat mode, press and hold the probe button. After 5 seconds, it will display “SouS” if in sous-vide mode, or “ rE9” if in a regular probe mode. If changes are desired, continue holding the probe button for an addition three seconds which will toggle the option.
