temperature of meat, poultry and casseroles. It should
not be used during the broiling, self cleaning, warming
or proofing mode. Always unplug and remove the meat
probe from the oven before removing food. Before using,
insert the probe into the center of the thickest part of
meat or into the inner thigh or breast of poultry, away
from fat or bone. Place food in the oven and connect the
meat probe to the jack. Keep the probe as far away from
