Using the temperature probe

The Temperature Probe is the most accu- rate guide to the degree of doneness of meat. Use it when baking, roasting any type of meat or poultry, or cooking casseroles with liquid.

1. Insert probe into food.

Insert the probe into the center of the thickest portion of meat or into the inner thigh or breast of poultry, away from fat or bone.

2. Put food in oven.

Place meat on the convection roasting rack, place rack on broiler pan, and place pan in the center of the oven.

3. Connect probe to oven.

Open the Temperature Probe cover located on the left side of the oven wall. Insert plug into jack. (Keep the top of the probe as far as possible from the heat source.)

4. Close oven door.
