MEAT PROBE
The meat probe is a feature which will control the
cooking of meats by informing you of the exact
temperature at the centre of the meat. It is not
necessary to weigh the meat, the sensor determines
the cooking time. However, the cooking time is
obviously influenced by the cooking temperature.
The probe consists of a skewer like sensor at one
end of a heat resistant cable, and a plug at the
other end.
First raise the meat probe socket cover (1), which
is located in the top of the left hand side of the
oven and plug the probe connecting pin into its
socket (2).
Insert the probe sensor into the centre of the meat,
taking care to avoid touching any bone or pockets
of fat as this will give a false temperature reading.
Place the meat, in a suitable tin, into the oven
cavity.
As poultry is a difficult shape with a great deal of
bone it is difficult to register a correct finish
temperature, please ensure it is cooked thoroughly.
To select temperature probe press button 4, the
display will show the pre-set temperature of 60
°
C
and the C symbol will flash for about 8 seconds.
Then select the finished internal meat temperature
by pressing buttons 9 or 10.
Not all the cook functions allow the use of the
probe. If you have selected an incorrect function,
the probe symbol will flash red. For a correct
function, the symbol will flash white.
Select the required cooking function by pressing
button 8.
The probe will register 60
°
C to start with then
continue to register the internal meat temperature
throughout the cooking period and convey the
information to the programmer. This will give a
visual read-out as cooking continues, and switch
off the oven when the selected temperature has
been reached.
Press button 2 to turn the oven off.
Open the oven door and remove the probe from
the meat, then remove the probe from the socket.
Do not submerge the meat probe in water, just
wipe with a clean damp cloth.
Remove the meat probe after use.
Do not leave the meat probe in the oven when
cooking other items.
If the oven has just been previously used and
the interior is hot, it may not be possible to use
the meat probe.
If the interior temperature exceeds the meat
probe max temperature, upon selection the
Technical assistance display will appear.
Remove the meat probe from the oven and
after a few minutes the Technical assistance
display will disappear.
You can either cook the meat without the probe
or wait until the interior temperature of the
oven has dropped to below the meat probe pre-
set temperature.
