The Temperature Probe
NOTE:
The turntable will not turn
when the probe is in use.
The temperature probe is a food
thermometer that gauges the inter-
nal temperature of food. The
probe must be used when using
Temp Cook or Roast.
The probe is not recommended for
batters, doughs, frozen foods and
foods which are difficult to cook
precisely by temperature. Use the
Micro Cook setting for these foods.
Make sure the cable end is insert-
ed all the way into the oven wall
receptacle.
Insert the probe into the center
of the food. Make sure the han-
dle does not touch the food or
the top or sides of the oven.
Do not leave the probe in the
oven if it’s not inserted in food.
If it touches the oven wall, it
may damage the oven.
