Cooking byTemperature
Internal temperature is the best test of doneness for many foods.
Use TEMP COOK/HOLD to cook a variety of foods to the de&redftihed food temperature. The TIME COOK I &II setting is recommended for batters, doughs, frozen foods and foods which are diftlcult to cook precisely with the probe.
“TEMP COOK/HOLD” takes the guesswork out of cooking because the oven automatically signals with four beeps when the food reaches the preset temperature. The Hold feature will maintainthis temperature for up to twelve hours or until you touch the CLEAR/OFF pad.
Note: Oven automatically switches to “Hold” when preset food temperature is reached.

Questions and Answers
Q.I inserted the temperature probe, closed the door, touched TEMP COOK/HOLD and entered my desired food temperature but the temperature didn’t appear on the display.
A.Youmay have entered an incorrect temperature. Any food temperature from 80° to 199”F. may be entered for TEMP COOK/ HOLD. Touch CLEAR/OFF and begin again.
Q.Are there any foods I can’t Temp Cook?
A.Yes. Delicate butter icings, ice cream, frozen whipped toppings, etc. soften rapidly at warm temperatures. Batters, doughs and frozen foods are also difficult to cook precisely with the probe. It’s best to Time Cook these foods.
Q.Why did “PROBE” flash on the display after I touched the START pad?
A.“PROBE” will flash if you don’t seat the cable end of the probe securely into the receptacle in the oven wall or if you touch the TEMP COOK/HOLD pad and forget to use the probe.
Q.Can I leave my probe in the oven if it’s not inserted in food?
A.No, if it touches the oven wall, you may damage the oven.
Q.Can I Temp Cook different portions of food at different temperatures?
A.Yes. The temperature probe gives you the freedom to cook different portions of food at different temperatures to suit individual eating styles. Simply place probe in food and change temperature setting as needed.
