USING THE RANGE
OVEN PROBE (SmartHQ app only)
Internal food temperature is frequently used as an indicator
of doneness, especially for roasts and poultry. The Probe
mode monitors the internal food temperature and turns the
oven off when the internal food temperature reaches the
programmed temperature.
Always check the temperature at multiple locations in the
food with a food thermometer after cooking to ensure that
all portions of the food have reached the minimum safe
internal temperature for that food.
Proper Probe Placement
After preparing the meat and placing it on the cooking pan
follow these instructions for proper probe placement.
• Insert the probe into the food, so that the tip of the probe
will rest in the center of the thickest part of the food.
For best performance the probe should be fully inserted
into the food. If the probe is not located properly, it may
not accurately measure the temperature of the coolest
portion of the food. Some foods, particularly small items,
are not well suited for cooking with the probe due to their
shape or size.
• The probe should not touch bone, fat or gristle.
• For whole poultry insert the probe into the thickest part
of the breast.
• For boneless roasts, insert the probe into the center of
the roast.
• For bone-in ham or lamb, insert the probe into the center
of the lowest large muscle or joint.
• For casseroles or dishes such as meatloaf, insert the
probe into the center of the dish.
• For fish, insert the probe from just above the gill into the
meatiest area, parallel to the backbone.
Probe Usage
The temperature probe can only be used with Bake,
Convection Bake, and Convection Roast through the
SmartHQ app.
To use the probe with preheating:
1. Select the desired cook mode (Bake, Convection Bake,
or Convection Roast) through the app, and select the
desired cooking temperature.
2. Insert the probe into the food (see Proper Probe
Placement).
3. Once the oven is preheated, place the food in the oven
and connect the probe to the probe outlet, making sure
it is fully inserted. Use caution, the oven walls and probe
outlet are hot.
4. When the probe is connected, the app will prompt you
to enter the desired food temperature. The maximum
internal food temperature that you can set is 200° F.
To use the probe without preheating:
1. Insert the probe into the food (see Proper Probe
Placement).
2. Place the food in the oven and connect the probe into the
probe outlet in the oven.
3. Through the app, select the desired cook mode (Bake,
Convection Bake, or Convection Roast), cooking
temperature, and desired food temperature.
Probe Care Guidelines
• Use of probes other than the one provided with this
product may result in damage to the probe outlet.
• Use the handles of the probe and plug when inserting and
removing them from the meat and outlet
• To avoid damaging your probe, do not use tongs to pull
on the cable when removing it.
• To avoid breaking the probe, make sure food is
completely defrosted before inserting the probe.
• To prevent possible burns, do not unplug the probe from
the outlet until the oven has cooled.
• Never leave the probe inside the oven during a self or
steam clean cycle.
• Do not store the probe in the oven.
WARNING
Consuming undercooked food can result in foodborne illness. Use probe according to the following
instructions to ensure all portions of the food reach minimum safe cooking temperatures. Recommendations for
minimum safe food temperatures can be found at
foodsafety.gov or IsItDoneYet.gov.
