GEAppliances.com For best results when roasting large turkeys and roasts, we recommend using the probe included in the convection oven. To change the oven temperature during the Convection Roast cycle, touch the CONVECTION ROAST pad and then touch the number pads to set the new desired temperature. How to Set the Lower Oven for Convection Roasting when Using the Probe Place the oven rack in the position that centers the food between the top and bottom of the oven. Insert the probe into the meat. Make sure it is pushed all the way in. Plug the probe into the outlet in the oven. Make sure it is pushed all the way in. Close the oven door. Touch the CONVECTION ROAST pad. Touch the number pads to set the desired oven temperature. Touch the PROBE pad. Touch the number pads to set the desired internal meat temperature. NOTE: The maximum internal temperature for the food that you can set is 200°F. Touch the START pad. The display will flash PROBE and the oven control will signal if the probe is inserted into the outlet, and you have not set a probe temperature and pressed the START pad. When the oven starts to heat, the word LO will be in the display. 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 an oven mitt to remove the probe from the food. Do not use tongs to pull on it-they might damage it. NOTE: If the probe is removed from the oven while probe cooking, the oven will not automatically turn off. CAUTION : To prevent possible burns, use an oven mitt to unplug the probe from the oven outlet. NOTE: ■ 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 Kitchen Timer even though you cannot use timed oven operations. ■ Never leave your probe inside the oven during a self-cleaning cycle. ■ Do not store the probe in the oven. ■ Probe not for use in Broil or Self-Clean functions.
