Roast modes meat probe – Viking F20366B User Manual

The meat probe takes the guesswork out
of roasting by cooking foods to the ideal
internal temperature. The probe setting is
used to automatically turn the oven off
when meat reaches its optimal internal
temperature. Your Viking oven’s built-in
probe will help you prepare meats exactly
as you want them.

Meat Probe Use and Care

• Use of probes other than the one provided with your oven

may result in damage to the probe.

• Use the handles of the probe and plug when inserting and

removing them from the meat and outlet.

• To avoid damaging your probe, never use tongs to pull on the

cable when removing.

• To avoid breaking the probe, make sure food is completely

defrosted before inserting.

• To prevent possible burns, do not unplug the probe from the

outlet until the oven has cooled.

• Never leave the probe inside the oven during a self-cleaning

cycle.

• Never store the probe inside the oven.

To Insert the Meat Probe:

After preparing the meat and placing it on the broiler pan, follow
these steps for proper probe placement:

1. Lay the probe on the outside of the meat along the top or

side and use your finger to mark where the edge of the meat
meets the probe. The point where they meet should rest in
the center of the thickest, meatiest part of the roast.

2. Insert the probe completely into the meat. It should not touch

the bone, fat, or gristle.

• For roasts with no bone, insert the probe into the meatiest

part of the roast.

• For bone-in ham or lamb, insert the probe into the center

of the lowest large muscle or joint.

• With a whole turkey, insert the probe into the meatiest part

of the inner thigh from below and parallel to the leg.
