Gaggenau BX 480/481 610 Benutzerhandbuch

The core temperature probe allows you to cook exactly 
to the precise level you require. It measures the 
temperature at the inside of the food. The automatic 
switch-off when the desired core temperature is 
reached ensures that all food is cooked precisely.

Note: The core temperature probe can only be used in 
the lower oven.

Only use the core temperature probe supplied with 
the cooker. You can purchase it as a spare part from 
the after-sales service or in the online shop.

The core temperature probe may be damaged at 
temperatures above 480°F (250°C). Therefore, only 
use it in your appliance with a maximum temperature 
setting of 445°F (230°C).

After use, always remove the core temperature probe 
from the cooking compartment. Never store it inside 
the cooking compartment. 

After each use, clean the core temperature probe with 
a damp cloth. Do not clean it in the dishwasher.

temperature probe in the middle of the thickest piece.

Insert the core temperature probe completely, if 
possible.

In the case of poultry, make sure that the tip of the

leg.
