Range & Wall Oven - Turkey Mode and How To Use It

Turkey Mode is being released just in time for Thanksgiving. Turkey modes are designed to simplify the process of making a juicy, golden brown turkey. Our newest precision mode, Turkey Mode takes advantage of the temperature probe and convection system to do the hard work of cooking the turkey for you.

 

Using Turkey Mode

  • It can be MONITORED from the SmartHQ™ App for models that have an LCD touch screen oven control panel.
  • It can be STARTED and MONITORED from the SmartHQ™ App for models that do not have an LCD oven control panel.

Turkey Mode must be used with the oven temperature probe. Correct probe positioning is essential to achieving a fully cooked turkey. You can check out instructional materials posted at geappliaces.com/upgrades for relevant instructional content including articles, recipes and videos to help you correctly use Turkey Mode.

 

For information about the use of the Probe and Turkey Mode, please take a look at our Range & Wall Oven - Turkey Mode FAQs and Tips article. You can also check out the Top Turkey Mode Tips on our website.

 

How to Use Turkey Mode on Models WITH LCD Oven Controls

Turkey Mode can be accessed in the Precision Cooking menu on the Oven Control Panel at Precision Cooking>Meats>Whole Turkey.

 

Please Note: For a limited time (until shortly after Thanksgiving), the LCD Control Panel display will have instant access to Turkey Mode from the main screen of the LCD owner interface via a “Turkey Mode” shortcut button.

 

On LCD Control Panel models, the current probe temperature can be monitored from the SmartHQ™ App. However, Turkey Mode cannot be started from the App for LCD models. The Turkey Mode must be started using the LCD Control Panel.

 

Turkey Mode walks you through a simple oven setup in a manner similar to other Precision Cooking modes. The LCD flow for Turkey Mode on the Control Panel is as follows:

 

  • Precision Cooking

  • Meats

  • Whole Turkey

  • Select Turkey Weight

  • Rack Position (2nd from the bottom)

  • Fully insert the Probe into the turkey breast area, not touching the bone. Then, insert the Probe into the Oven Probe Outlet.

  • The word Next shows in the display and it will say "Press Next to start cooking your turkey".

  • When you press Next, the display now shows the current Probe temperature.

  • The turkey is done when the internal (Probe) temperature reaches 170 degrees Fahrenheit.

  • When it reaches 170 degrees Fahrenheit, the screen will say "Probe temperature reached" and show the word Dismiss. Press on the word Dismiss to end the Turkey Mode cooking.

How to Use Turkey Mode on Models WITHOUT LCD Oven Controls:

On models that do not have an LCD Control Panel for the oven, Turkey Mode can only be started and monitored with the SmartHQ™ App on your phone.

 

The flow for Turkey Mode on the SmartHQ™ App on your phone is as follows:

 
  • Select "Control" in the App on your phone.
  • Select "Precision Cooking" in the "Control" menu.
  • Select "Meats", then select "Whole Turkey" in the "Precision Cooking" menu.
  • Select "Turkey Mode". You will now be asked to enter the turkey weight. Enter the turkey weight and press the word Next.

  • You will now be told to "Insert Food then Press Start". Fully insert the Probe into the turkey breast area, not touching the bone. Then, press Start.
  • The oven will now start cooking the turkey. Close the oven door. The word Turkey will be displayed on the oven Control Panel.
  • The SmartHQ™ App ​​​will show the Probe (internal) temperature as well as the oven temperature. The turkey is done when the Probe (internal) temperature reaches 170 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • When the Probe reaches 170 degrees Fahrenheit, the App will say "The internal temperature of your food has reached its set temperature". Press on "OK" to end the Turkey Mode cooking.
