Important note:

Changing how the oven reacts after reaching the target temperature must be done before starting the cooking process.

To Set Meat Probe:

1.Prepare the food and properly insert the temperature probe into the food. DO NOT preheat or start cooking before properly inserting the meat probe. The probe should be inserted into the food and receptacle while the oven is still cool.

2.Place the prepared food on the desired oven rack position and slide into the oven.

3.Plug the meat probe into the probe receptacle located on the left front oven cavity top (See Fig. 3 for location of probe receptacle).

Proper probe placement

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

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. To find the center of the food visually measure with the probe -Fig. 1-. When cooking fish, insert the probe just above the gill.

°For whole poultry or turkey, insert the probe into the thickest part of the inner thigh, below the leg -Fig. 2-.
