Roasting

Probe
Risk of injury. The metal tip of the
probe can cause injury.
The wireless probe enables the roasting
process to be monitored simply and
reliably. The wireless probe can be
cleaned in the dishwasher.
How it works
The metal tip of the probe must be fully
inserted into the center of the food. It
contains four temperature sensors. The
sensors measure the core temperature
inside the food during the cooking
process.
They are designed to monitor the rise
in temperature in the coldest part of
the food. The coldest part is usually in
the center (core) of the food. The four
temperature sensors are arranged in
the metal tip so that the measured
values they provide can be used to
calculate the temperature in the
coldest part of the food. This is still
possible even if the metal tip is not
located exactly in the core of the food.
The rise in the core temperature reflects
the extent to which the food is cooked.
You can program the core temperature
to be lower or higher, depending on
whether you want your meat to be rare,
medium, or well done.
The core temperature can be set up to
210°F (99°C). Information on food and
respective core temperatures can be
found in “Special Modes – Slow
Roasting”.
The cooking duration will be similar for
cooking processes with or without the
probe.
The core temperature value is sent via
radio signal from the transmitter in the
handle of the wireless probe via the
antenna in the top right of the oven to
the electronic of the appliance as soon
as the food is put in the oven with the
probe inserted.
Efficient radio transmission is only
guaranteed if the oven door is closed. If
the door is opened during a cooking
process, e.g., to baste the food, radio
signal transmission is interrupted. It will
only resume when the door is closed. It
will take a few seconds before the
current core temperature appears again
in the display.
If you do not intend to use the wireless
probe, do not leave it in the oven while
cooking. Always put it in the storage
sleeve.
When to use the probe
Some automatic programs and Special
Modes will prompt you to use the
probe.
