Maintenance
- Cleaning Probes: Always clean the stainless steel probes thoroughly after each use with hot soapy water. Do not immerse the probe connectors or the main units in water.
- Unit Cleaning: Wipe the receiver and transmitter units with a damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners.
- Storage: Store the thermometer and probes in a dry place when not in use.
- Battery Replacement: Replace batteries when the low battery indicator appears on the display to ensure accurate readings and optimal performance.
Troubleshooting
- No Signal/Connection Issues: Ensure both units are powered on and within the 500ft range. Check battery levels. Obstructions like thick walls or metal structures can reduce range.
- Inaccurate Readings: Ensure probes are fully inserted into the thickest part of the meat, avoiding bone. Verify probes are clean and undamaged.
- Probe Error (---): If the display shows '---', the probe might be damaged or not properly connected. Try reconnecting the probe or using a different one if available.
