NOTE: If such an event has occurred, it is strongly
recommended that you ensure the food is safe for
consumption according to local health regulations.
Display High/Low Probe Temperatures:
To observe the recorded maximum or minimum probe
temperature when cooking by probe, press the following
keys while the probe remains in the product:
Highest Temperature: Press p

Probe Usage:
When the oven probe remains inserted in the probe
bracket, the LED temperature display will indicate the
ambient air temperature inside the oven. To use the probe
for cooking remove it from the bracket and wipe the full
length of the metal probe with a disposable alcohol pad to
clean and sanitize before using.
Only the tip of the probe senses the internal product
temperature; therefore, it is important the tip be placed
correctly in the product for internal temperature accuracy.
Push the probe tip halfway into the product, positioning
the tip at the center of the food mass. When inserting
the probe into solid foods such as meat roast or poultry
breasts, push the probe in from a straight downward
position or in from the side to the center position. If
placing into a semi-liquid or liquid product, the probe
cable must be secured to keep the probe positioned
properly. Do not let the probe tip touch the edges, bottom
or side of a container. Tape the probe cable to the lip or
edge of the container.
Probe Calibration:
1. To verify product probe calibration, place the probe in
a warm glass of water along with a quality independent
digital thermometer and press the probe key for five (5)
seconds. Compare readings.
2. If calibration is required, the unit must be in the power
up hold mode. From the off state turn the unit on. The
unit will begin to operate in the power up hold mode,
press the probe key for eight (8) seconds until the unit
beeps twice and a temperature is displayed. Adjust the
probe temperature to match the independent probe by
pressing the up or down arrows to increase or decrease
the temperature. Repeat step 1 to verify.
3. Repeat steps 1 and 2 to verify the probe calibration
as necessary.
OPERATING FEATURES & FUNCTIONS
NOTE: When cooking by probe, insert the probe
into the raw product after the oven has been
preheated.
WAIT ONE FULL MINUTE to allow the probe
temperature to decrease to the internal temperature
of the product. Press the start button to begin
the cooking process after this probe temperature
adjustment period. A false probe reading of the
internal product temperature will cause the oven to
default to a holding temperature.
