Internal temperature is the best test of doneness
for many foods.

Use 

 Cook& Hold to cook a variety of foods

to the desired finished food temperature. The Time

Cook I &II setting is recommended for batters,

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

 Cook& Hold takes the guesswork out of

cooking, because the oven automatically switches
to “Hold” setting after reaching the preset food
temperature and maintains that temperature for up
to one hour or until you touch the 

 pad,

NOTE: Oven automatically switches to “Hold”
when preset food temperature is reached.

The Temperature Probe

The temperature probe is a food thermometer that
gauges the internal temperature of your food. (Its
appearance may vary from picture at right.) The probe
must be used when using 

 Cook & Hold or Auto

Roast. To use the probe properly, follow directions in
the Automatic Roasting section.
