How to Set the Oven for Convection Roasting when Using the Probe
Place the rack in the lowest position (A).
Insert the probe into the meat. See the
Using the Probe
section.
Plug the probe into the outlet in the
oven. Make sure it is pushed all the way
in. Close the oven door.
Touch
PROBE
.
For double oven models only,
touch
UPPER OVEN
or
LOWER OVEN
to select
the desired oven. Touch
OK
.
Touch the numbers to set the
desired internal meat temperature.
(The maximum internal temperature
for the food that you can set is 200°F.)
Touch
ENTER
.
Touch
CONVECTION ROAST
.
Touch the numbers to set the desired
oven temperature.
Touch
ENTER
.
Touch
START
.
The oven and the oven interior lights will turn
on immediately and stay on until the oven is
turned off.
The convection fan will turn on (after a short
delay) and 100°F will appear in the screen.
(The temperature display will start to change
once the internal temperature of the meat
reaches 100°F.)
After the internal temperature of the
meat reaches 100°F, the changing internal
temperature will be shown in the display.
When the internal temperature of the
meat reaches the number you have set,
the probe and the oven turn off and the
oven control signals. To stop the signal,
touch the
CLEAR/OFF
pad. Use hot pads
to remove the probe from the food. Do
not use tongs to pull on it—they might
damage it.
CAUTION:
To prevent possible
burns, do not unplug the probe from the oven outlet until
the oven has cooled. Do not store the probe in the oven.
NOTE:
■
If the probe is removed from the food before the
final temperature is reached, a tone will sound and
the screen will prompt until the probe is removed
from the oven.
■
You will hear a fan while cooking with this feature.
The fan will stop when the door is opened, but the
heat will not turn off.
■
You can use the timer even though you cannot use
timed oven operations.
■
On double oven models, you will not be able to
use the probe in the upper oven during timed oven
operations. This is because, with the probe, you are
cooking by temperature rather than time.

The U.S. Department of Agriculture says “Rare beef is popular, but you should know that cooking it to only
140°F means some food poisoning organisms may survive.” (Source: Safe Food Book. Your Kitchen Guide.
