Package Contents
- 1 x Thermometer Receiver
- 1 x Thermometer Transmitter
- 1 x Stainless Steel Temperature Probe
- 4 x AAA Batteries (included)
Setup and Initial Use
1. Battery Installation
Insert the included AAA batteries into both the receiver and the transmitter units. Ensure correct polarity as indicated in the battery compartments.
2. Probe Connection
Plug the stainless steel temperature probe into the designated port on the transmitter unit. Ensure the connection is secure.
3. Power On and Synchronization
Turn on both the receiver and the transmitter. The units should automatically synchronize. If they do not sync, turn the remote off, then start the flashing of the base using the side button, and turn the remote back on within 30 seconds. This typically resolves synchronization issues.

Operating Instructions
Temperature Monitoring
Insert the probe into the thickest part of the meat, avoiding bone or gristle. The current internal temperature will be displayed on the receiver.
Setting Target Temperature
The TP09B comes with preprogrammed temperatures for 9 types of meat and poultry. You can also customize these settings to your preference.
- MEAT Button: Press to cycle through preprogrammed meat types (e.g., Ground Beef, Ground Poultry, Beef, Veal, Chicken, Pork, Poultry, Lamb, Fish).
- TASTE Button: Press to select the desired doneness level (e.g., Rare, Medium Rare, Medium, Medium Well, Well Done).
- Custom Temperature: Use the HR (Hour) and MIN (Minute) buttons to manually adjust the target temperature if needed.

The MEAT button allows selection of various meat types (PROG, GBEEF, GPOUL, BEEF, VEAL, CHCKC, PORK, POULT, LAMB, FISH), while the TASTE button allows selection of doneness levels (RARE, MED RARE, MEDIUM, MED WELL, WELL DONE).
Timer Function
The unit includes a count-up and count-down timer for timed cooking. Use the HR and MIN buttons to set the timer, and START/STOP to control it.

Wireless Range
The wireless remote allows you to monitor your meat from up to 300 feet away. The receiver will beep when the meat temperature reaches your programmed target.

Maintenance
Cleaning
The stainless steel probe can be wiped clean. The main unit and transmitter should be wiped with a damp cloth. Do not immerse the main unit or transmitter in water. The probe and wire are oven safe up to 716°F (380°C).
Battery Replacement
Replace batteries when the low battery indicator appears on the display. Use 4 AAA batteries.
Storage
Store the thermometer in a dry place when not in use. Avoid kinking the probe wire to prolong its lifespan.
Troubleshooting
- No Signal/Synchronization Issues: Ensure both units are powered on and within range. Try turning the receiver off, then activate the base's flashing mode (usually a side button), and turn the receiver back on within 30 seconds to re-sync.
- Inaccurate Readings: Perform an ice bath test (should read close to 32°F/0°C) and a boiling water test (should read close to 212°F/100°C at sea level) to check probe accuracy. If readings are consistently off, the probe may need replacement.
- Slow Temperature Updates: The unit updates the remote with the current temperature approximately every 10-11 seconds. This is normal operation and not a defect.
- Short Battery Life: Ensure both units are turned off completely when not in use. If the base unit's light is blinking, it is still transmitting and consuming power.
