8. Touch START.
The PROBE TEMP and COOK POWER
Indicator Lights will stay on.
The Display will show “COOL” to
show the food is less than 9O’F.
As the food cooks, the Display will
show the internal temperature of
the food for every 5’F increase.
For 2 of every 10 seconds, the Dis-
play will show the Cook Power you
selected, if you are using a Cook
Power other than high.
When the probe senses the tem-
perature you selected, the oven shuts
off. “End” will show on the Display and
4 beeps will sound. [You can stop the
beeping by opening the door or by
touching CANCEL.) “End” will remain on
the Display and a beep will sound every
30 seconds (to remind you that food is
left in the oven) until door is opened or
CANCEL is touched. The Displby will
then show the time of day.
NOTE: “Err” will be displayed after START is touched, if an incorrect temperature has been
selected (under 90°F or over 200°F).

NOTE: Some foods are started using a timed (COOK) cycle and finished by using a temperature

The oven will then pause between COOK and PROBE TEMP. “PROB” will show on the Display to
remind you to plug in the probe. Touch START to continue cooking.
