Important note:

To set meat probe:
1. Prepare the food and
properly insert the

while the oven is still cool.
2. Place the prepared food
on the desired oven rack
position and slide into the
oven.

temperature needs to be changed during the cooking

The U.S. Department of Agriculture states, “Rare fresh beef is popular, but you
should know that cooking it to only 140°F/60°C means some food poisoning
organisms may survive.” (Source: Safe Food Book, Your Kitchen Guide, USDA
Rev. June 1985.) The lowest temperature recommended by the USDA is 145°F/
63°C for medium rare fresh beef.
