7. Before you start
Remove the grill thermometer and all accessories from the
packaging and check that the package contents are complete.
Remove all protective films. If you notice any damage, do not use
the grill thermometer and contact the manufacturer’s customer
service department. We recommend cleaning the temperature
sensors (30; 31) before first use.
7.1 Inserting / replacing the batteries
When the batteries are weak, the display normally dims. In this
case, replace the batteries as soon as practical.
Transmitter (14):
•Switch the transmitter (14) off using the “ON/OFF” button
(19).
•Unlock the battery compartment cover (24) and remove it.
•Insert two AAA 1.5 V (Micro/R03/LR3) batteries, making sure
the polarity is correct. Refer to the diagram inside the battery
compartment (23).
•Close the battery compartment (23) by replacing the cover
(24). You should hear it click into place.
Receiver (1):
•Switch the receiver (1) off using the “ON/OFF” button (8).

GFGT 433 B1
14 - US-EN
•Now unfold the folding clip (10) so you can open the battery
compartment cover (13) into the direction of the arrow.
•Insert two AAA 1.5 V (Micro/R03/LR3) batteries, making sure
the polarity is correct. Refer to the diagram inside the battery
compartment (12).
•Close the battery compartment (12) by replacing the cover
(13) and pushing it in the opposite direction to the arrow.
7.2 Connecting the temperature sensors (30; 31)
Before using it for the first time, remove the transport protection
(black rubber cover) from the tips of the temperature sensors (30;
31).
Insert the connectors (27; 28) into the sockets (25; 26) on the side
of the transmitter (14).
When not in use, you can wind the temperature sensor (30; 31)
cables around the transmitter and fix the temperature sensors on the
transmitter (14) top. There is an additional plastic nose for this
purpose.
7.3 Selecting the temperature unit
You can choose between two temperature units (°C and °F). On
the receiver, you can do this using the selection button (6). On the
transmitter (14), slide the selector switch (22) on the back panel to
the desired position.

GFGT 433 B1
US-EN - 15
8. Getting started
The grill thermometer has 2 temperature sensors (30;
31) and can perform 2 measurements simultaneously.
The settings for the 2 temperatures sensors (30; 31) can
be adjusted individually. The displays on the receiver (1)
and transmitter (14) keep you up to date on the
temperature status in real time. There is a separate
display for each temperature sensor (30; 31) on both
the receiver (1) and transmitter (14).
•Switch the transmitter (14) on by keeping the “ON/OFF”
button (19) pressed. When in use, the red LED (18) flashes
every few seconds.
•Now also switch the receiver (1) on by keeping the “ON/OFF”
button (8) pressed. The LCD display (2) lights up once briefly
with blue backlighting, then red and then blue again, and a
beep sounds.
If the temperature sensors (30; 31) are not connected to
the transmitter (14) or there is a fault with the wireless
connection between the transmitter (14) and the receiver
(1), “- - -” is displayed as the current core temperature
on the LCD display (2; 16).
In this case, make sure the connectors (27; 28) are
properly inserted into the sockets (25; 26). The distance
between transmitter (14) and receiver (1) must not be
too large. If necessary, switch the transmitter (14) and
receiver (1) off for about 3 seconds by long
-
pressing the

GFGT 433 B1
16 - US-EN
button and then switch them back on again. This should
resolve the problem.
8.1 Position when in use
The range of the transmitter (14) is about 15 meters.
Make sure the distance between the transmitter (14) and
the receiver (1) is not too great. This would mean that
accurate temperature measurements are not be possible.
8.1.1 Receiver (1)
•You can use the belt clip (11) to affix the receiver (1) to your
belt or bag, for example.
•The belt clip (11) has two built-in magnets. This means you can
also stick the receiver (1) to a magnetic surface.
8.1.2 Transmitter (14)
•There are two magnets (21) on the back of the transmitter (14).
This means you can also stick the transmitter (14) to a magnetic
surface.
When positioning the transmitter (14), make sure that
you can easily reach the food whose core temperature
you wish to measure with the temperature sensor (30;
31) cable.
The transmitter (14) is made of plastic. Therefore, do not
affix it to parts of the handle which get extremely hot,
e.g., to the grill cover or the charcoal dish. This could
damage the transmitter (14).

8.2 Selecting the type of meat (32) / adjusting the
level of cooking
•
Press the “MEAT / STOP" button (9) to select the type of meat
(32). The LCD display (2) shows the selection. Every time the
button is pressed, the selection changes, moving through the

•Once you have selected the type of meat (32), press the
“TASTE / START“ button (4). 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" (36; 37).
Indicator Meaning
WELL Well done
MED WELL Medium well
MEDIUM Medium
MED RARE Medium rare
RARE Rare
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” (36; 37) manually. To do so, proceed as follows:
•First select the temperature sensor (30; 31) which target
temperature you want to set. To do this, use the “MODE”
