Ilelpful Hints
If the receiver and the transmitter display LL.L or HILH instead of the probe temperature the probe has
reached a temperature outside of it's useful range. If the reading is HH.H remove t-he probe from the
bbq/grill and' t ait for probe to reach room temperature. You should also probably cool your bbq/grill down!
If LL.L is displal'ed while the probe is inserted into a piece of meat it's Utety ttre meat is below 32 F. you can
give your meat time to lYarm up or remove the probe and let it come to room temperature. If LL.L or HH.II
is still displayed. after taking these actions, it is likely the internal probe wire has shorted out either through
moisture or heat.damage.
Do not allow the piobe or probe rvire to come into contact with flames.
Within the wanant\-period, retum defective probe to address below along *'ith retum address and we will send you
a replacement probe at no charge.
Note on reading meai temps:If the temperatue displayed seems to read too high or the temperature seems to
lncrease too quickh" check to make sure the probe tip is not poking through the food to outiide. Reposition the
probe tip in the cenrer of the thickest part of food. Avoid touching bone oi heavy fat areas.
