OVEN CONTROLS
Cooking with Meat Probe
Use the probe feature for best results when cooking foods
such as roasts, hams or poultry. For meats like poultry and
roasts, using a probe to check internal temperature is the
safest method to ensure properly cooked food. The probe
feature, when set correctly, will signal an alert when the
internal food temperature reaches the desired set target
temperature. When active, the probe displays the internal
food temperature which is visible in the display during the
cooking process. This eliminates any guesswork or the
need to open the oven door to check the thermometer.
Proper placement of probe in food.
• Insert the probe so that the probe tip rests inside the
center of the thickest part of meat or food (Figure 13).
For best results, do not allow the probe temperature
sensor to contact bone, fat, gristle, or the cookware.
• For bone-in ham or lamb, insert the probe into the
center of lowest large muscle or joint.
• For meat loaf or casseroles, insert the probe into center
of food.
• When cooking fish, insert meat probe just above the gill.
• For whole poultry or turkey, fully insert the probe sensor
into the thickest part of inner thigh, just below the leg
(Figure 14).
Do not use kitchen utensils to pull on the probe cable or
handles. Always insert and remove the probe using the
provided handles, as shown in Figure 12, and always use
a pot holder to protect hands from possible burns.

On some models, the meat probe receptacle may be

NOTE
• Do not store the probe inside the oven. Use only the
original probe provided. Connecting any other probe
or device could result in damage to the oven control,
electronics, and the receptacle.
• Before starting self clean, double check that the probe
is removed from the oven interior. Defrost frozen
foods completely before inserting the probe.
