Use the handles of the probe and plug when

inserting and removing them from the meat

and oven outlet.
• To avoid damaging the probe, do not use tongs

to pull on the cable when removing it.

• To avoid breaking the probe, make sure food is

completely defrosted before inserting.

• To prevent possible burns, always wear an

oven mitt when removing the plug; internal

oven surfaces may be hot.

The temperature probe has a skewer-like probe at one end
and a plug at the other end that goes into the outlet in the
oven.

Proper

placement

of the

probe

• Measure the distance to the center of a roast

by laying the temperature probe on top of the
meat. Use your thumb and forefinger to mark
where the edge of the meat will come on the
probe.

• Insert the probe up to the point marked with

your finger. The tip of the probe should be in
the center of the meat.

For many foods, especially roasts and poultry,

internal food temperature is the best test for

doneness. The temperature probe takes the

guesswork out of cooking foods to the exact

doneness you want.
The probe can be used with the %$.(&219
%$.(
and &21952$67.

 Push the tip of the probe into the thickest part

of the meat.

 Place the rack in the desired rack position.
 Set the oven controls. Turn the Oven Mode

Selector to &219%$.(&21952$67 or %$.(.

Turn the Temperature Knob to desired oven

temperature in 25°F increments, from 175°F to

550°F. Allow the oven to preheat if necessary.
The oven and oven lights will turn on

immediately and stay on until the oven is

turned off.

 Use oven mitts to place the food in the hot

oven. Insert the plug into the outlet. Make sure

it is pushed all the way in. Close the oven door.

5. Turn the Mini-Knob to find the desired internal

food temperature. Push the Mini-Knob to select

that temperature.

The word PROBE and SET, will flash in the display

until a temperature is selected. If no temperature

is set, the probe will default to 100°F. If the oven

was not preheated, the display will show LO.
The internal food temperature can be set from a

minimum of 100°F and up to 200°F maximum.
When food reaches the set internal temperature,

the display will beep. To stop the reminder

beep, turn the Oven Mode Selector and the

Temperature Knob to OFF. Use oven mitts to

remove the probe from the oven outlet.
To change the set internal temperature anytime

in the cooking process, push the Mini-Knob and

turn to adjust the temperature. Press the

Mini-Knob to select.

during a broil or self-cleaning cycle.
