Probe Care and Use • To avoid damaging your probe, DO NOT pull on the cable when trying to remove it from a dish. • DO NOT use tongs or other instruments to pry on the probe when removing it or to "hammer" the probe into a food dish. • DO NOT wash the probe in the dishwasher; use warm, soapy water instead to clean it. • To prevent possible burns, wait until the oven has cooled before trying to remove the probe from the outlet. • DO NOT store the probe inside the oven. Minimum Internal Cooking Temperatures The minimum internal temperatures that foods must reach to be considered safe to eat, as determined by the U. S Department of Agriculture Food Safety and Inspection Service, are as follows: Fresh ground beef, veal, lamb, pork Beef, veal, lambroasts, steaks, chops Medium rare Medium Well done Fresh porkroasts, steaks, chops Medium Well done Ham Cook before eating Fully cooked, to reheat Poultry Ground chicken, turkey Whole chicken, turkey Breasts, roasts Thighs and wings Stuffing (cooked alone or in bird) Egg dishes, casseroles Leftovers 160°F (72°C) 145°F (63°C) 160°F (72°C) 170°F (77°C) 155°F (70°C) 170°F (77°C) 160°F (72°C) 140°F (60°C) 165°F (74°C) 165°F (74°C) 165°F (74°C) 165°F (74°C) 165°F (74°C) 160°F (72°C) 165°F (74°C) Using the Offset Feature The Offset feature allows cooks to further fine-tune their cooking parameters to their own personal optimal settings by allowing them to adjust the temperature offset of the oven by +/-25°F (14°C) in increments of 5°F. For example, if the cook judges the oven temperature as too hot and wants to lower it by 5°F, press the "-" button. To increase the temperature by 5°F, press the "+". This feature is useful if you find that food is consistently either too brown or too light for your tastes. • The oven must be turned off in order to set an offset value. • The Offset feature is available for all modes except Self-Clean. • By default, the temperature is set at 0°. • The unit will continue to run the input offset value indefinitely until the user manually changes it, or until the unit loses power, in which case Offset will need to be reset. Using the Sabbath Mode Sabbath Mode is for faiths with "No Work" requirements on the Sabbath. It keeps an oven on at a specified temperature for as long as it is required. The cook can prepare a meal prior to a holiday and then leave it in the always-warm oven until it is ready to be eaten. • Use the "+" or "-" buttons to choose one of three duration times: 26 hours, 50 hours, or 74 hours. • The oven lamp is disabled in Sabbath mode to prevent any action from occurring at any time the door is opened. • While using Sabbath Mode, only the ON/OFF function of the oven is active. • The temperature in Sabbath Mode is 190ºF (85ºC). • The gas burners and griddle on the cooktop are still fully functional during Sabbath Mode. • For double oven models, Sabbath Mode is available for both ovens, but not at the same time. • Sabbath Mode is only available when the range is not already in another active cooking mode or SelfClean. • When the timer reaches "0:00", the cooking mode will be finished and the display will beep. The oven will automatically turn off when the specified cooking time is complete. • If the door is opened during preheat or during a cycle operation, there will be no change to the current state of the oven. That is to say, if the bake element was on before the door was opened, the element will remain on. If the element was cycled off just before the door was opened, it will remain off even though it would normally cycle back on with the call for heat. The regular cycle will resume once the door is closed. English 36
