socket (16).
7.3 Selecting the temperature unit
You can choose between two temperature units (°C
and °F). Slide the selector switch (11) in the battery
compartment (10) to the desired position.
8. Getting started
Switch the transmitter (13) on by sliding the
ON/OFF switch (18) to the “ON” position. When
in use, the red LED (17) flashes about every 4
seconds.
Now switch the receiver (1) on too by moving the
ON/OFF switch (12) to the “ON” position. A
signal sounds and the LCD display (2) lights up
once briefly with blue back-lighting, then red and
then blue again.
If the temperature sensor (14) is not
connected to the transmitter (13) or there is a
fault with the wireless connection between the
transmitter (13) and the receiver (1), “- - -” is
displayed as the current temperature on the
LCD display (2).
In this case, make sure the connector (15) is
inserted correctly into the socket (16) and that
the distance between the transmitter (13) and
the receiver (1) is not too great. If necessary,
switch the transmitter (13) and receiver (1) off
for about 3 seconds and then switch them
back on again. This should resolve the
problem.

FLORABEST FFGT 433 A1
10 - English
8.1 Position when in use
The range of the transmitter (13) is about
15 metres. Make sure the distance between
the transmitter (13) and the receiver (1) is not
too great. This would mean accurate
temperature measurement would not be
possible.
8.1.1 Receiver (1)
You can place the receiver (1) in the transmitter
(13).
You can use the belt clip (9) to affix the receiver (1)
to your belt or bag, for example.
The belt clip (9) has two built-in magnets. This
means you can also stick the receiver (1) to a
magnetic surface.
8.1.2 Transmitter (13)
There are two magnets on the bottom of the
transmitter (13). This means you can also stick the
transmitter (13) to a magnetic surface.
The velcro fasteners (21) supplied can also be used
to attach the transmitter (13) to the handle or base
of a barbecue, for example. Use either one or both
velcro fasteners (21) as required.
When positioning the transmitter (13), make
sure that you can easily reach the food whose
core temperature you wish to measure with
the temperature sensor (14) cable.
The transmitter (13) is made of plastic.
Therefore, do not affix it to parts of the handle
which get very hot, e.g. on the barbecue
cover or the charcoal dish. This could damage
the transmitter (13).

FLORABEST FFGT 433 A1

8.2 Selecting the type of meat (22) /
Adjusting the level of cooking
Press the “MEAT / STOP” button (7) to select the
type of meat (22). The LCD display (2) shows the
selection. Every time the button is pressed, the
selection changes, moving through the table below:
BEEF
LAMB
VEAL
PORK
TURKEY
CHICKEN
HAMBURGER
FISH
Once you have selected the type of meat (22),
press the “TASTE / START“ button (3). Every time
the button is pressed, the selection changes, moving
through the table below. The current target
temperature set is shown on the LCD display (2)
under “TARGET TEMP” (25).
Display Description
WELL Cooked through
M WELL Nearly cooked through
MEDIUM Half cooked through
M RARE Pink
RARE Bleeding
Please note:
For health and other reasons, not all options
are available for all types of meat.
For example, poultry should always be
cooked through. For this reason, only this
cooking level is available.
You also have the option of setting the target
temperature “TARGET TEMP” (25) manually. Proceed
as follows:

FLORABEST FFGT 433 A1
12 - English
Press and hold the “MODE“ button (4) for approx.
3 seconds. A beep sounds and “TARGET TEMP”
(25) flashes on the LCD display (2). Use the “MIN
/ +” (6) and “SEC / -” (5) buttons to change the
figure. Press the “MODE” button (4) to apply the
target temperatures shown in “TARGET TEMP” (25).
To cancel the manual selection or select another
type of meat, press and hold the “TASTE / START“
button (3) for about 3 seconds. Alternatively, you
can switch the receiver (1) off and on again using
the ON/OFF switch (12).
For low core temperatures, only use meat
which is fresh and in excellent condition.
Generally, low core temperatures are not
suitable for frozen or vacuum-packed meat.
8.3 Measuring the core temperature
The temperature is only measured correctly if
no other devices of the same type are nearby
and switched on. Otherwise, the current
temperature is not shown correctly and
uniquely on the display.
With the transmitter (13) and receiver (1) switched
on, guide the point of the temperature sensor (14)
into the thickest part of the meat. It makes sense to
feed the temperature sensor (14) into the meat from
the side, as you can then still turn it.
Avoid contact between the temperature sensor
(14) and bones. This can result in an
inaccurate temperature measurement. The
temperature sensor (14) should also not be
inserted into pure fat for the same reason.
After a short time, the core temperature of the meat
is displayed under “CURRENT TEMP” (23). As the
food cooks, the temperature rises until it reaches the
“TARGET TEMP” (25) set. The LCD display (2) then
begins to flash red and a beep sounds with each
flash.
Press the “MEAT / STOP” button (7) to stop the
beeping and the temperature measurement.
If you added multiple pieces of the same meat
of similar shape and size to the pan or the
barbecue at the same time, you can assume
that the correct level of cooking has also been
achieved for the other pieces as well.

8.5 Timer function
If you are not happy with the level of cooking achieved,
you can use the timer function to continue cooking the
food for a little longer. You do not have to leave the
temperature sensor (14) in the meat for this. The
procedure is as follows:
Briefly press the “MODE" button (4) to access the
timer function.
Select the time you want by pressing the “MIN / +
(6) and “SEC / -” (5) buttons. You can also hold the
buttons down to make the numbers move faster.
Press the “TASTE / START” button (3) to start the
countdown. The time on the LCD display (2) now
counts backwards and you can see the time
remaining at any time.
You can use the “MEAT / STOP” button (7) to
pause the countdown, for example to check or turn
the food. You can then resume the countdown by
pressing the “TASTE / START“ button (3).
When the time is up, the LCD display (2) begins to
flash red and a beep sounds with each flash.
Press the “MEAT / STOP” button (7) to stop the
beeping. Otherwise, the beeping stops
automatically after about 2 minutes.
9. Cleaning
Always allow the barbecue thermometer to
cool completely before cleaning. There is a
risk of getting burnt.
