PERFECT TURKEY
This mode uses the temperature probe to control precisely the cooking of a perfect turkey.
The convection system gently browns the turkey’s exterior and seals in the juices. The
temperature probe is with this cooking mode (read its section on next page for
more details). The oven can be programmed for Perfect Turkey at any temperature between
170°F to 550°F with a default temperature of 325°F. The probe default temperature for the
perfect turkey feature is 180°F.
Perfect Turkey Tips:
• Thaw the turkey in the refrigerator at least 24 hours per 5 lbs before cooking the bird.
• Use the broiler pan and grid, and the roasting rack. The broiler pan will catch grease spills
and the grid will help prevent spatters. The roasting rack will hold the turkey.
• Place an oven rack on next-bottom rack position.
• Make sure the roasting rack is securely seated on the grid in the broiler pan. The roasting
rack ts on the grid allowing the heated air to circulate under the food for even cooking and
helps to increase browning on the underside.
To set a Perfect Turkey:
1. Arrange interior oven racks and place food in the oven.
