Probe

Temperature Offset

The probe measures the internal temperature of the food. The probe is available for Bake, Roast and all convection cooking modes except Convection Broil.

Positioning the probe:

Insert the tip of the probe where the least amount of heat penetrates the meat. The best location is in the middle and thickest part of the meat. Make sure the probe is not touching fat, bone, parts of the oven or pan.

To use the probe:

1.Insert the probe into the meat as described above.

2.Set the cooking mode and temperature.

3.Connect the probe to the oven.

Note: to prevent burns, do not attempt to insert the probe in a hot oven. "PROBE" and the default temperature of 160 ºF appear in the display:

4.Use the "+" and "-" buttons to set the probe temperature. See Cooking Charts for appropriate probe temperatures.

The display stops flashing after a few seconds and the programmed setting is accepted. The display switches between the current and programmed probe temperature as soon as the probe reached 100 °F.

The oven turns off and a beep sounds once the programmed probe temperature is reached. The probe icon disappears when the probe is removed.

Note:

Probe is not available when Cook Time has been set.

The range for the probe temperature is between 135 ºF and 200 ºF.

In double oven models the probe is only available for the upper oven .

This feature is useful if food is consistently either too brown or too light. When an offset value is selected, the actual oven temperature in Bake, True Convection, Roast, Convection Roast and Speed Convection is raised or lowered by this value.

Note: the oven must be turned off in order to set an offset value.

To change the oven temperature offset:

1.Single oven: Press and hold FAST PREHEAT and "+" simultaneously for 3 seconds.

Double oven: Press and hold FAST PREHEAT and "+" simultaneously for 3 seconds to select the upper oven.

Press and hold FAST PREHEAT and "-" simultaneously for 3 seconds to select the lower oven.
