Meat Probe (For model: LSE4617)
The meat probe accurately measures the internal
temperature of meat, poultry and casseroles. It should
not be used during broiling, self clean, warming or
proofing. Always unplug and remove the meat probe
from the oven when removing food. Before using,
insert the probe into the center of the thickest part of
the meat or into the inner thigh or breast of poultry,
away from fat or bones. Place food in the oven and
connect the meat probe to the jack. Keep the probe
as far away from heat sources as possible.
