accurate temperature reading. The probe
temperature is displayed under THERMO
TEMP on the lower right corner of
the display.

1. As a matter of safety, always position the
probe on the pot before filling it and/or
applying heat.
2. Insert the probe through both holes
in the attachment clip. Press the top
portion of the clip together for easier
sliding up the probe.
3. Push the clip down onto the side of the pot and
position it until the probe tip is just above the
bottom. Do not let the tip touch the bottom
of the pot.
Important: Keep sensor cable away from direct heat of
the cooktop burner — wires inside the cable may become
damaged.
4. Set the temperature alert as described in
Section D2. Candy temperatures are listed here
for easy reference.
Note: Clean the thermometer probe before each use.
Important: DO NOT LEAVE THERMOMETER CASE IN
HOT OVEN. CASE IS NOT HEAT RESISTANT.
Tip:
Meat should be allowed to “rest” for 10 to 15 minutes after
it is removed from oven. This allows time for the meat’s internal
temperature to stabilize and the juices to redistribute. This will
result in a roast that is both juicier and easier to carve.
Precautions
• Always wear heat resistant gloves to touch the
stainless steel probe sensor or wire during or just
after cooking. Do not touch with bare hands.
• Keep the battery, stainless steel probe and sensor
cable away from children.
• Clean the sensor probe and dry thoroughly after use.
• Do not clean the unit with abrasive or corrosive
compound, which may scratch the plastic and
corrode the electronic circuits.
• Do not subject the units to excessive force shock,
dust, temperature or humidity, which may result in
malfunction, shorter electronic life span, damaged
battery and distorted parts.
• Do not tamper with the unit’s internal component.
Doing so will invalidated the warranty on the unit
and may cause unnecessary damaged battery and
distorted parts.
• Do not subject the units to excessive exposure to
direct sunlight. The unit is not waterproof. Do
not immerse it into water or expose to heavy rain.
• Do not expose the sensor cable plug or the jack on
the case to water or any liquid, which will result in
a bad connection and faulty readings.
• To avoid deformation, do not place the unit in
extreme temperatures. Never burn the probe
directly over the fire. Do not use the probe when
the temperature is above 482°F/250°C. Doing so
will deteriorate the wire.
• Do not use the probe in microwave oven.
• Always read the users manual thoroughly
before operating.
