Meat Probe Instructions
Prepare the meat for cooking prior to setting the 1.
oven. Insert the meat probe skewer into the center
of the meat. Make sure that the skewer is not inside
any fatty portions of the meat and does not touch any
bones. The point should rest in the thickest part of
the meat. When you are cooking fowl, the tip of the
skewer should rest toward the center of the bird.
Before placing the meat in the oven and with the door 2.
closed, push the BAKE, CONV BAKE, PURE CONV
or CONV ROAST key. The preset temperature will
appear on the display. If you want to cook using a
different oven temperature, enter it on the number
keypad.
Press 3. START.
Allow the oven to preheat. Excessive browning may 4.
occur if the meat is placed in the oven during preheat
mode (when “PRE-” appears on the display).
Once the oven has preheated (“5. PRE-” disappears),
put the meat in the oven using pot holders. Insert the
meat probe plug into the connector inside the oven.
Push the 6. PROBE key. The preset probe temperature
(160°F), as well as the probe symbol, will appear
on the display. If you want to cook using a different
probe temperature, enter it on the keypad. Use the
USDA Minimum Safe Cooking Temperature Chart
on page 18 as a guideline for the type of meat you are
cooking.
Press 7. START. If you do not press START, the probe
mode will not start.
When the meat probe is in use, the oven will
automatically control the cooking time. The
temperature on the display during cooking is the
temperature measured inside the meat. The oven will
continue to cook until the meat temperature reaches the
temperature you have entered.
When the meat is done, the oven will go into hold mode.
The temperature will reduce to 150°F for two hours to
keep the meat warm and safe for serving. To prevent sick-
ness, do not allow foods to remain in the oven after it has
turned off. Press CANCEL · SECURE to cancel hold mode
and turn the oven completely off.

cooking:

will appear on the display.
Enter the new temperature. The oven will automati-2.
cally change to the new probe temperature. If you
do not enter a temperature, the oven will continue to
cook at the current setting.
To change the cooking mode during meat
probe cooking:
Press the 1. CANCEL · SECURE key.
Press the2. BAKE, CONV BAKE, PURE CONV or CONV
ROAST key. If you want to cook using a temperature
different than the oven’s preset temperature, enter it
