For many foods, especially
roasts and poultry, internal food
temperature is the best test for
doneness. The meat thermometer
takes the guesswork out of roasting
by cooking foods to the exact
doneness you want. The meat
thermometer has a skewer-like
probe at one end of the cable and a
two-pronged plug at the other. Use
handle of plug and probe, rather
than cable, when inserting and
removing these parts from meat
and/or oven wall receptacle. After
preparing meat and placing in
roasting pan on rack, follow the
steps below for proper use of meat
thermometer.
Step 1:
To gauge placement of
probe, lay probe on outside of meat
along top or side and mark with
finger where edge of meat comes
on probe. Probe should be placed
so point rests in center of the
thickest part of roast.
Step 2:
Insert probe into meat up
to point marked off with fingers.
Point should not touch bone, fat or
gristle. Not more than 2“ of probe,
not counting handle, should be left
—.
exposed outside of meat.
Step 3:
Plug cable into receptacle
on oven wall. The prongs are
especially designed to only plug in
one way. Be certain to insert plug
into receptacle all the way. Close
oven door.
Step
4: Turn OVEN SET knob to
BAKE and OVEN TEMP knob to
recommended oven temperature,
for example
350”F.
See Roasting
Guide on page 14 for oven
temperature.
Step
5: Refer to chart near Meat
Thermometer Dial to determine
at what internal temperature meat
will be done. Then turn knob next
to dial to move pointer to correct
number (internal temperature)
on dial.

Step 6: When internal temperature
of roast reaches number you have
set, a buzzer sounds. To stop
buzzer, turn pointer to SIGNAL
OFF. Internal temperature of meat
can be determined at any time
during cooking by turning pointer
down until buzzer sounds.
Step
7: When roast is done,
use care in removing plug from
receptacle. DO NOT USE CABLE.
Remove meat from oven. Since
most meat continues cooking, you
may wish to remove 5° to 10° sooner.
Step 8:
Remove probe from meat,
using handle of probe
not
cable.
Most meats carve easier if let stand
5 to 10 minutes. Let thermometer cool
and clean as directed in Cleaning
Guide on page 24. Do not leave
in oven.
