HELPFUL HINTS
If the receiver and/or the transmitter display LLL or HHH instead of the probe temperature, wait for probe to reach room temperature.
If LLL or HHH is still displayed it is likely the internal probe wire has shorted out either through moisture or heat damage.
Do not immerse the probe in water while cleaning.
Do not allow the probe or probe wire to come into contact with flames. If cooking with grill cover closed, only use medium or low
heat.
Ifthe probe becomes defective within 90 day warranty period please return defective probe to address below along with return
address and we will send you new probe no charge.
If the temperature displayed seems to read too high or the temperature seems to increase too quickly check to make sure the probe tip
is not poking through the food to outside. Reposition the probe tip in the center of the thickest part of food. Avoid touching bone or
heavy fat areas.
Cautions: Always wear a heat resistant glove to touch the stainless steel probe sensor or wire during or just after cooking. Do
not touch with bare hands.
Keep the stainless steel probe sensor and wire away from children.
