Meat Probe
When cooking meat such as roasts, hams, or poultry, use the
meat probe function to check the internal temperature without
guesswork. For some foods, especially poultry and roasts, testing
the internal temperature is the best method to ensure properly
cooked meats.
Important note:
• Use only the meat probe supplied with appliance. Using any
other probe or device may result in damage to appliance
and the meat probe receptacle.
• Never leave or store meat probe inside oven.
• Defrost food completely before inserting meat probe to
avoid damaging probe.
Proper meat probe placement:
Always insert meat probe so that the probe tip rests in the center
of the thickest part of meat. Do not allow meat probe to touch
bone, fat, gristle, or cookware.
For bone-in ham or lamb, insert meat probe into the center of
lowest large muscle or joint. For dishes such as meat loaf or
casseroles, insert meat probe into center of food. When cooking
fish, insert meat probe just above the gill.
For whole poultry or turkey, insert meat probe into the thickest
part of inner thigh, below the leg (See
Figure 30 ).
Important note:
On some models the receptacle can be found at the top of the
oven cavity. Changing how the oven reacts after reaching the
target temperature must be done before starting the cooking
process.
To set meat probe:
Handle the meat probe carefully when inserting
and removing from food or probe receptacle. Do not use kitchen
utensils, such as tongs, to pull on meat probe cable when
inserting or removing from food or receptacle. Use the provided
handle, as shown in
Figure 32 . To avoid possibility of burns, after
cooking carefully unplug meat probe using a pot holder to
protect hands.
1. Prepare the food and properly insert the temperature probe
into the food. Do not preheat or start cooking before
properly inserting the meat probe. Probe should be inserted
into the food and receptacle while the oven is still cool.
2. Place the prepared food on the desired oven rack position
and slide into the oven.
3. Plug the meat probe into the probe receptacle located on
the left front oven cavity side. On some models the recep-
tacle can be found at the top of the oven cavity.
4. When the meat probe is correctly plugged in to receptacle,
the probe icon will illuminate in the oven control display.
5. To set the target temperature, press Meat Probe once, then
enter the desired target internal temperature using the
numeric keypad (default setting is 170ºF/ 77ºC).
Press
to accept the meat probe target temperature.
Close the oven door.
