Maintenance

To ensure the longevity and accuracy of your Farberware Pro Meat Thermometer, follow these care instructions:

• Cleaning: Hand wash only. Do not place in a dishwasher. Wipe the probe clean with warm, soapy water after each use. Rinse thoroughly and dry completely before storing.
• Storage: Store in a dry place at room temperature.
• Calibration: This thermometer is factory calibrated. If you suspect inaccuracy, you may perform a simple ice bath test: fill a glass with crushed ice and a small amount of cold water. Insert the probe into the ice water, ensuring it does not touch the bottom or sides of the glass. The thermometer should read 32°F (0°C). If it does not, contact customer support.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your meat thermometer, consider the following:

• Inaccurate Readings: Ensure the probe is inserted into the thickest part of the meat and not touching bone. Verify the immersion depth is at least 2 inches.
• Slow Response: Allow sufficient time for the thermometer to register the temperature, typically a few seconds.
• Damage: Inspect the thermometer for any visible damage to the probe or dial. If damaged, discontinue use.
