HACCP CHECK
• The "HACCP CHECK" feature is incorporated
in thermometer temperature to indicate
critical temperature zone. The LED light
indicates a food product stays in a safe or
unsafe HACCP "Danger Zone" temperature.
The green and red LED lights will always be
lit before power o.
• A Green LED light indicates a safe cool or
frozen condition below 4.0 °C (40.0 °F or
indicates a safe holding temperature above
60.0"C ( 140.0 °F).
• When temperature is between 4.0 °C (40.0
°F) and 60.0 °C (140.0 °F), the red LED light
indicates that the temperature has fallen
within the HACCP "Danger Zone" from 4.0 °C
(40.0 °F) to 60.0 °C (140.0 °F).
