Cooking by Temperature
Internal temperature is the best
test
of doneness for many foods.
Use Temp Cook & Hold to cook
a variety of foods to the desired
finished food temperature. The
Time Cook I & 11 setting is
recommended for batters,
doughs, frozen foods and foods
which are difficult to cook
precisely with the probe.
TetTlp
Cook
&
Hold takes
the
guesswork out of cooking, because
the
oven automatically switches
to “Hold” setting
after
reaching
the preset
food
temperature and
maintains
that
temperature
for
up
to
one
hour
or until
you
touch the
CLEAR/OFF pad.
Note: Oven automatically switches
to “Hold” when
preset
food
temperature is reached.

Questions and Answers
Q. Are there any foods I can’t
Temp Cook?
A. Yes. Delicate butter icings, ice
cream,
frozen whipped toppings,
etc., soften rapidly at
wurm
temperatures. Batters,
doughs
and
frozen
foods
are
also
difficult to
cook precisely with the
probe.
It’s
best to Time Cook these foods.
Q. Why did “PRObE” flash on
the display after
I
touched the
START pad?
A. “PRObE”
will
jlash
if you
don’t seat the cable end
of
the
probe securely into the receptacle
in the oven
wall
or
if
you touch the
TEMP COOK & HOLD pad
and
forget
to use the probe.
Q. Can I leave my probe in the
oven if it’s not inserted in food?
A. No,
if
it touches the oven wall,
it may damage the oven.
Q. Can
I
Temp Cook different
portions of food at different
temperatures?
A. Yes. The temperature probe
gives you the freedom to cook
different portions
of
food at
different temperatures to suit
individual eating styles. Simply
place
probe in food and change
temperature setting
as
needed.
Cooking Tips
● Use a lower power level; foods
will heat more evenly though
requiring more time.
● Be sure frozen food has been
completely defrosted before
inserting probe.
Probe
may
break
off if used in frozen
foods.
● Cover foods loosely for moisture
control and quick, even heating.
