Core temperature probe
Core temperature probe
The core temperature probe makes it possible to cook
with exact precision. It measures the temperature inside
the food. When the required core temperature has been
reached, the probe switches off automatically, ensuring
that all food is cooked perfectly.
The core temperature probe may be damaged at
temperatures above 250
°C. Therefore, only use it in
your appliance at a maximum temperature of 230
°C.
m
Warning – Risk of electric shock!
The insulation of an incompatible meat probe may be
damaged. Only use the meat probe which is
recommended for this appliance.
m
Warning – Risk of burns!
The cooking interior and the core temperature probe
become very hot. Use oven mitts to plug and unplug the
core temperature probe.
Only use the core temperature probe supplied. You can
purchase it as a spare part from the after-sales service
or from the online shop.
When using the core temperature probe, never place
the food on the top shelf position in the oven.
After use, always remove the core temperature probe
from the cooking compartment. Never store it inside the
cooking compartment.
After each use, clean the core temperature probe with a
damp cloth. Do not clean in the dishwasher.
Inserting the core temperature probe
into the food
Insert the core temperature probe into the food before
you place the food in the cooking compartment.
The core temperature probe has three measuring
points. Insert the core temperature probe as far as
possible. It must not be inserted in the fat or be
touching the cookware or bones.
Meat:
Insert the core temperature probe at the thickest
point on the side as far as it will go into the meat.
If there is more than one piece of meat, insert the core
temperature probe into the middle of the thickest piece.
Poultry:
Insert the core temperature probe as far as it
will go into the thickest point in the breast. Depending
on its structure, insert the core temperature probe into
the poultry crossways or lengthways. With poultry, make
sure that the tip of the core temperature probe does not
protrude into the cavity in the middle of the bird.
Fish:
Insert the core temperature probe behind the head
as far as it will go towards the spine. Place the whole
fish onto the wire rack and prop it up in the swimming
position using half a potato.
Turning the food:
If you want to turn the food, do not
remove the core temperature probe. Once you have
turned the food, check that the core temperature probe
is correctly positioned in the food.
If you remove the core temperature probe during
operation of the appliance, all settings are reset and you
have to apply them again.

Setting the core temperature
Caution!
Damage to the core temperature probe:
The core temperature probe may be damaged if the
distance between the grill heating element and the core
temperature probe is too small. Make sure that the
distance between the grill heating element and the core
temperature probe or the cable of the core temperature
probe is a few centimetres. The meat may expand during
the cooking process.
Caution!
Damage to the core temperature probe:
Do not trap the cable of the core temperature probe in
the appliance door.
1
Slide the food into the cooking compartment with
the core temperature probe inserted. Plug the core
temperature probe into the socket in the cooking
compartment and close the appliance door.
2
Turn the function selector to the required type of
heating.
3
Use the rotary selector to set the cooking
compartment temperature.
4
Touch the
+
symbol. Using the rotary selector, set
the desired core temperature for the food and press
+
to confirm.
The set core temperature must be higher than the
current core temperature.
5
The appliance heats up using the type of heating
that has been set.
The current core temperature is shown in the
display, and beneath it, the set core temperature.
You can change the set core temperature at any
time.
Once the food reaches the core temperature that has
been set, an audible signal will sound. Cooking ends
automatically. Confirm with
™
and turn the function
selector to
0
.
Estimated cooking time
After preheating, if the appliance has a temperature
setting above 100
°C, when the core temperature probe
is inserted, the display shows an estimated cooking time
approx. 5–20
minutes into the cooking time.
The estimated cooking time is continually updated. The
longer the cooking process lasts, the more precise the
estimated cooking time becomes. Do not open the
appliance door; this distorts the estimated cooking time.
The estimated cooking time is displayed in normal
operation and in the automatic programme.
The current core temperature is shown in the display
when you touch the
(
symbol.
The estimated cooking time display can be deactivated
in the basic settings so that the current core
temperature is shown instead.
Notes
–
At the beginning of the cooking time, "<15 °C" is
displayed for 3–4
minutes for the current core
temperature.
–
The measurable range is 15 °C to 99 °C. Outside
of the measurable area, "<15 °C" is displayed for
the current core temperature.
–
If you leave food in the cooking compartment for
some time after cooking, the core temperature will
continue to rise somewhat due to the residual heat
in the cooking compartment.
–
If you set programmes with the core temperature
probe and the cooking timer at the same time, the
appliance switches off whichever programme
reaches the entered value first.
Changing the set core temperature
Touch the
+
symbol. Use the rotary selector to change
the set core temperature for the food and press
+
to
confirm.
Deleting the set core temperature
Touch the
+
symbol. Delete the set core temperature
with

. The appliance continues heating in normal
cooking operation.
