note:

• 

set for delay timed cooking. However, both chambers must 

have the same cook times and stop times.
Do not use foods containing baking powder or yeast in delay 

• 

timed cooking mode. these foods will not rise properly.

Using the Meat Probe

For many foods, especially roasts and poultry, internal food 

temperature is the best test for properly cooked food. the meat 

probe takes the guesswork out of roasting by cooking food to the 

exact temperature you desire.

Important things to know about the meat probe:

Double oven models have a meat probe connector in the 

• 

upper oven only.
if the internal temperature of the meat you are cooking is 

• 

less than 55˚F, you need to wait to insert the meat probe for 

proper operation.
Make sure the food is completely defrosted before inserting 

• 

the meat probe to avoid breaking the probe.
For fully defrosted meat

• 

: allow it to come to room temperature 

by leaving it out for at least 15 minutes, but no more than 

2 hours. Fully defrosted meat allowed to come to room 

temperature before cooking can improve cooking results for 

searing, roasting and meat cooked rare.
For partially frozen meat

• 

: first fully defrost and follow the 

steps above.
to avoid the possibility of burns, unplug the meat probe using 

• 

hot pads.
to prevent damage, use the handles of the meat probe and 

• 

plug to insert and remove them from the food and connector. 

Do not use tongs to pull on the cable when removing the 

probe.
Never leave the meat probe inside the oven when the oven is 

• 

not in use and especially during self-clean mode.
to prevent damage to the oven, do not use probes other than 

• 

the one provided with your wall oven.

probe placement:

Lay the probe on the outside of the meat along the top or 

1. 

side and mark with your finger where the edge of the meat 

comes to the probe. the point should rest in the center of the 

thickest meaty part of the roast.

insert the probe into the meat to the point marked by your 

2. 

finger. the probe should not touch the bone, fat, gristle or the 

bottom of the pan.

For roasts with no bone, insert the probe into the side of 

• 

the roast in the center. For bone-in ham or lamb, insert 

the probe into the center of the lowest large muscle or 

joint.
For dishes such as meat loaf or casseroles, insert the 

• 

probe into the center of the dish. when cooking fish, 

insert the probe from just above the gill into the meatiest 

area, parallel to the backbone.
insert the probe into the meatiest part of the inner thigh 

• 

from below, and parallel to the leg of a whole turkey.
