Operating Instructions

1. Probe Insertion

Carefully insert the probe into the thickest part of the meat, avoiding bones. Ensure the probe is fully inserted up to the ceramic handle for accurate internal temperature measurement. The probes are designed to measure internal temperature only, not ambient temperature.

2. Monitoring Temperature

You can monitor the cooking temperature directly on the smart booster's LCD display or through the 'BF Home' app on your smartphone.

• LCD Display: The booster's screen shows the current temperature for each probe and the preset target temperature. This allows for quick checks without needing your phone.
• Smartphone App: The app provides real-time temperature graphs, allows you to set custom temperature alarms (high/low), and offers preset cooking temperatures for various meats. It can also record cooking processes.

3. Using Dual Probes

The BF-40 PRO includes two color-coded probes (black and white) to monitor two different dishes or different parts of a large cut of meat simultaneously. This eliminates confusion and allows for independent tracking of each item.

4. Range Considerations

The Bluetooth range varies depending on environmental factors:

• Closed Grills/Ovens: The distance between the probe and the smart booster base should not exceed 1 meter (3 feet).
• Open Grills: The range can extend up to 30 meters (98 feet).
• Mobile App Monitoring: For extended range up to 100 meters (328 feet), place the smart booster base next to the cooking appliance and monitor from your mobile phone.

Maintenance and Care

• Cleaning Probes: After each use, clean the probes with warm, soapy water. Wipe them thoroughly with a soft cloth. Do not immerse the entire probe in water, especially the top electronic part. The ceramic handle is heat resistant up to 400°C.
• Cleaning Booster Base: Wipe the smart booster base with a damp cloth. Do not submerge it in water.
• Storage: Store the probes in the smart booster base when not in use. Keep the device in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
• Battery Care: Recharge the device regularly to maintain battery health, even if not used frequently.

Troubleshooting

• No Power: Ensure the smart booster base and probes are fully charged. Connect the USB-C cable to charge.
• Bluetooth Connection Issues:
  1. Ensure Bluetooth is enabled on your smartphone.
  2. Make sure the smart booster base is powered on and within range.
  3. Restart the app and the smart booster base.
  4. Check for any obstructions between the booster and your phone.
• Inaccurate Temperature Readings:
  1. Ensure the probe is inserted correctly into the thickest part of the meat, avoiding bones.
  2. Verify that the probe is fully inserted up to the ceramic handle.
  3. Note that the probes measure internal temperature only, not ambient temperature.
• App Not Responding: Close and reopen the 'BF Home' app. If the issue persists, restart your smartphone.
