cook a variety of foods to the
desired finished food temperature.

recommended for batters,
doughs, frozen foods and foods
which are difficult to cook
precisely with the probe.

guesswork out of cooking because

to “Hold” setting after reaching the
preset food temperature and
maintains that temperature for up to
one hour or until you touch the
CLEAR/OFF pad.

to “Hold” when preset food
temperature is reached.

heat more evenly even though

probe. Probe may break off if used
in frozen foods.
●
Cover foods loosely for moisture
control and quick, even heating.
Questions and Answers
Q. Are there any foods I can’t
Temp Cook?
A. Yes. Delicate butter icings, ice
cream, frozen whipped toppings,
etc. soften rapidly at warm
temperatures. Batters, doughs and
frozen foods are also difficult to
cook precisely with the probe. It’s
best to Time Cook these foods.
Q. Why did “PROBE” flash on
the display after I touched the
START pad?
A. “PROBE” will flash if you
don’t seat the cable end of the probe
securely into the receptacle in the
oven wall or if you touch the TEMP
COOK/HOLD pad and forget to
use the probe.
Q. Can I leave my probe in the
oven if it’s not inserted in food?
A. No, if it touches the oven wall,
you may damage the oven.
Q. Can I Temp Cook different
portions of food at different
temperatures?
A. Yes. The temperature probe
gives you the freedom to cook
different portions of food at
different temperatures to suit
individual eating styles. Simply
place probe in food and change
temperature setting as needed.
