I have a Sharp Carousel II circa 1984 and want to try cooking with the
temperature probe. I don't have the manual and can't locate one for
this model online.

I've been using it for years, still works great but just for grins
want to try cooking a chicken with the temp probe. No combo of button
pushes seems to work. Probe in bird, plugged in the receptacle. If I
input 165 on the touchpad and then press "Temp" it brings up 165 f on
the display, if I push the "cook" button, it beeps but nothing
happens.

Anyone familiar with this oven or some close cousin who can advise how
to do this?

Thanks

The temperature probe plugs into a socket in the cavity wall, no? I
had a zapper like that, but it had an air-driven "wave mixer", not a
turntable, a.k.a. carousel. The food remained still and the whole
square bottom was usable space. If you find out how to use a
temperature probe in a carousel-type zapper, please post it here to
assuage my curiosity.
