Proper probe placement

• Always insert the probe so that the tip rests in

the center of the thickest part of the meat. Do

not allow the probe to touch bone, fat, gristle or

the pan.

• For bone-in ham or lamb, insert the probe into

the center of the lowest large muscle or joint.

For dishes such as meat loaf or casseroles,

insert the probe into the center of the food. To

find the center of the food visually measure with

the probe -fig. 3-. When cooking fish, insert the

probe just above the gill.

• For whole poultry or turkey, insert the probe into

the thickest part of the inner thigh, below the leg

-fig. 1-.

Checking the internal temperature of your food is

the most effective way of insuring that your food

has been properly cooked. When cooking meat

such as roasts, hams or poultry you can use the

probe to check the internal temperature without any

guesswork.
Your oven will automatically change from cooking

to keep warm once the probe has reached the set

temperature.
The following temperature settings apply to the

probe function:
• Default

: 170°F/76°C

• Minimum

: 130°F / 54°C

• Maximum

: 210°F / 98°C

IMPORTANT

• Use only the probe supplied with your

appliance; any other may result in damage to

the probe or the appliance.

• Be sure the probe is

fully inserted into the

probe receptacle. The probe will not work

properly until correctly connected - fig. 2.

• Handle the probe carefully when inserting and

removing it from the food and the receptacle.

• Do not use tongs to pull the cable when

inserting or removing it from the food or the

receptacle.

• Defrost your food completely before inserting

the probe to avoid damaging probe.

Never leave or store the probe inside the

oven when not in use.

• To prevent the possibility of burns, carefully

unplug the probe using a pot holder.
