Meat Probe (Main Oven only)

The meat probe is a feature which will control the
cooking of meat by informing you of the exact
temperature at the centre of the meat. It is not
necessary to weigh the meat, the sensor determines
the cooking time. The cooking time will be
influenced by the cooking temperature.

The probe consists of a skewer like sensor at one end
of a heat resistant cable, and a plug at the other end.

Only use the meat probe supplied with the
oven or an original spare part.

1) First raise the meat probe socket cover (1),

which is located in the top of the left hand
side of the oven and plug the probe
connecting pin into its socket (2).

2) Insert the probe sensor into the centre of the

meat, taking care to avoid touching any
bone or pockets of fat as this will give a fal-
se temperature reading.

3) Place the meat, in a suitable tin, into the

oven cavity.

4) To select the Meat Probe function press the

"Probe Temp." button. The display will
show the pre-set temperature of 60

°

C and

the C symbol will flash for about 8 seconds.

5) Then select the finished internal meat tem-

perature by pressing buttons

+

or

-

. Check

the recommended temperatures in the
roasting chart for meat probe function.

6) Select the required cooking function by

pressing button

.

Not all the cooking functions allow the use of
the probe (see next page). If you have selected
an incorrect function, the probe symbol will
flash red. For a correct function, the symbol
will flash white.

7) The probe will then continue to register the

internal meat temperature throughout the
cooking period and convey the information
to the programmer. The programmer will
give a visual read-out as cooking continues,
and switch off the oven when the selected
temperature has been reached.

8) Press the "OFF" button to turn the oven off.

9) Open the oven door and remove the probe

from the meat, then remove the probe from
the socket.

As poultry is a difficult shape with a great deal of
bone it is difficult to register a correct finish tem-
perature. Please ensure it is cooked thoroughly.

Do not submerge the meat probe in water,
just wipe with a clean damp cloth.

Remove the meat probe after use.

Do not leave the meat probe in the oven
when cooking other items.

If the oven has just been previously used
and the interior is hot, it may not be
possible to use the meat probe. In that
case, upon selection of the Meat Probe
function the symbol

will come on.

Remove the meat probe from the oven and
after a few minutes the Technical assistance
symbol will disappear. You can either cook
the meat without the probe or wait until the
interior temperature of the oven has
dropped down to 60

°

C.
