3.8 Core temperature sensor
Using the core temperature sensor, during the
cooking process you can measure the core
temperature of the food you are preparing exactly
between 1°C and 99°C. The sensor measures the
temperature in the interior of the meat. It indicates
when the set core temperature has been reached
and the meat has been cooked to satisfaction.
The core temperature sensor
– enables exact cooking.
– prevents overcooking of roasts.
– provides you with a display of the actual
temperature for total control of the cooking
process.
Proceed as follows:
– Preheat the oven.
– Insert the grid iron with the food.
– Insert the core temperature sensor in the front left
socket in the oven (Fig. 37).
Caution: the side panels are hot. Use a glove.
– Insert the tip of the core temperature sensor in
the middle of the food, at its thickest point; not in
the middle in the case of poultry (hollow), but
between the belly and the thigh.
The measuring tip must not touch any bones and
should not be inserted into fatty tissue.
– Close the oven door.
– Press the + key. The (Core temperature sensor)
symbol flashes and the suggested value of 60°C
appears on the display (Fig. 38).
– You can enter a value between 1°C and 99 °C (see
table) by pressing the + and – keys.
– Press the (Confirmation) key to confirm the
entered value. An audible signal is sounded.

Note:
You cannot set a temperature on the core
temperature sensor which is lower than the actual
core temperature of the food you are preparing.
If you set programming with the core temperature
sensor and the timer at the same time, the
programming that reaches the entered value first
will switch off the oven.
It is not possible to program a short time while the
core temperature sensor is plugged in.
