Setup
Battery Installation
The HABOTEST HT691 thermometer requires one CR2032 button cell battery (3V). A battery is typically included in the product package.
- Locate the battery compartment on the back of the thermometer. It is usually marked with "CR2032" and an "OPEN" indicator.
- Use a coin or a small flat-head screwdriver to gently twist the battery cover counter-clockwise to open it.
- Insert the CR2032 battery with the positive (+) side facing upwards.
- Replace the battery cover and twist it clockwise to secure it firmly.
Note: Ensure correct battery polarity to prevent damage to the device. Dispose of used batteries responsibly according to local regulations.
Operating Instructions
Power On/Off
To power on the thermometer, simply unfold the stainless steel probe. The display will illuminate automatically. To power off, fold the probe back into its housing. The device features an automatic shut-off function to conserve battery life if left idle with the probe extended for a certain period.
Temperature Measurement
- Unfold the probe to power on the device.
- Insert the stainless steel probe into the center of the food item you wish to measure. Ensure the probe tip is fully immersed and not touching any bones, fat, or the bottom of the cooking vessel, as these can affect accuracy.
- Wait for the temperature reading on the digital display to stabilize. The response time is approximately 3 seconds.
- Once the reading is stable, you can remove the probe.

Data Hold Function
To hold the current temperature reading on the display, press the "H" button. Press it again to release the hold and resume live temperature measurement.
Max/Min Function
Press the "MAX/MIN" button to view the maximum temperature recorded since the thermometer was powered on. Press it again to view the minimum temperature. Press a third time to return to the current temperature display.
Maintenance
Cleaning
After each use, clean the stainless steel probe with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Rinse thoroughly and dry completely before folding the probe. Do not immerse the entire thermometer in water or place it in a dishwasher, as this can damage the electronic components.
Storage
Fold the probe back into the thermometer body for safe and convenient storage. Store the device in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Remove the battery if the thermometer will not be used for an extended period to prevent battery leakage and corrosion.
Troubleshooting
- No Display/Faint Display: Check the battery. Ensure it is correctly installed and has sufficient charge. Replace with a new CR2032 battery if necessary.
- Inaccurate Readings: Ensure the probe is fully inserted into the food and not touching bones, fat, or the cooking vessel. Allow sufficient time for the reading to stabilize. If issues persist, the battery might be low.
- "Lo" or "Hi" on Display: This indicates the measured temperature is outside the thermometer's specified operating range (-50℃ to 300℃).
If you encounter persistent issues not covered here, please contact customer support or your retailer for assistance.
