Cooking with Food Probe (Single / Upper Oven) Use the probe feature for best results when cooking foods such as roasts, hams, or poultry. The Food Probe works with the following oven modes: Bake, Convection Bake, Air Fry, Convection Roast, and Steam Roast. The probe feature, when set correctly, will signal an alert when the internal food temperature reaches the desired set target temperature. The probe settings for how the oven behaves should be set first in the oven menu. When active, the probe displays the internal food temperature which is visible in the display during the cooking process. This eliminates any guesswork or the need to open the oven door to check the thermometer. For meats like poultry and roasts, using a probe to check internal temperature is the safest method to ensure properly cooked food. To set Food Probe: 1. Plug the food probe into the oven receptacle, the Food Probe indicator will come on. 2. Select a cooking mode on the Mode dial. 3. Select a temperature on the Temp dial. 4. The SET TEMP indicator turns on with a default value of 160°F, and the + and - keys come on. 31 SETTING OVEN CONTROLS CAUTION Do not use kitchen utensils to pull on the probe cable or handles. Always insert and remove the probe using the provided handles, as shown in and always use a pot holder to protect hands from possible burns. Proper placement of probe in food. Insert the probe so that the probe tip rests inside the center of the thickest part of meat or food. For best results, do not allow the probe temperature sensor to contact bone, fat, gristle, or the cookware. Insert probe tip to center of food • For bone-in ham or lamb, insert the probe into the center of lowest large muscle or joint. • For meat loaf or casseroles, insert the probe into center of food. • When cooking fish, insert meat probe just above the gill. • For whole poultry or turkey, fully insert the probe sensor into the thickest part of the breast. 5. Use the + and - keys to set the target internal temperature. 6. After a moment, the display will show the current internal temperature. 7. When the target temperature of the turkey (internal temperature) is reached, the oven will turn off, and the CHECK FOOD indicator will come on..
