Probe

Internal food temperature is frequently used as an

indicator of doneness, especially for roasts and poultry.

The Probe mode monitors the internal food temperature

and turns the oven off when the internal food

temperature reaches the programmed temperature.

Minimum temperatures for food safety can be found at

www.IsItDoneYet.gov. The temperature probe can only

be used with Bake and Convection Bake.

To use the probe with preheating:

1. Press the desired cook mode (Bake or Convection

Bake) pad and enter the desired cooking temperature.

2. Insert the probe into the food (see Proper Probe

Placement Guidelines in this section).

3. Once the oven is preheated, place the food in the

oven and connect the probe to the probe outlet,

making sure it is fully inserted. Use caution, the oven

walls and probe outlet are hot.

4. Program the probe temperature by pressing

the Probe pad and entering the desired food

temperature. The maximum internal food temperature

that you can set is 200º F.

To use the probe without preheating:

1. Insert the probe into the food (see Proper Probe

Placement Guidelines in this section).

2. Place the food in the oven and connect the probe into

the probe outlet in the oven.

3. Program the desired probe and cooking mode

settings by pressing the Probe pad and entering the

desired food temperature, then pressing the cook

mode pad (Bake or Convection Bake) and entering

the desired cooking temperature and press Start.
