Setup

1. Charge the Probe: Place the probe into its charging base. Connect the charging base to a USB power source using the provided cable. The indicator light on the base will show charging status. A full charge provides up to 16 hours of use.
2. Download the App: Search for "PROBE PLUS" in your smartphone's app store (iOS or Android). Download and install the application.
3. Pair the Device:
   • Ensure Bluetooth is enabled on your smartphone.
   • Open the "PROBE PLUS" app.
   • Remove the probe from the charging base to activate it. The app should automatically detect and connect to the thermometer. Follow any on-screen prompts for pairing.
4. Positioning the Charging Base: The charging base also acts as a Bluetooth booster. For optimal range, place the base at least 1 foot away from the cooking utensil (grill, oven, smoker) to avoid potential heat damage and ensure stable connection. The base has a built-in magnet for convenient attachment to metal surfaces like a grill or oven side.

Operating Instructions

1. Insert the Probe: Insert the stainless steel probe into the thickest part of the meat, avoiding bones. Ensure the notch on the probe is fully covered by the meat while the tip of the probe is inside the meat. This ensures accurate internal temperature readings.

Maintenance

• Cleaning the Probe: The metal probe is IPX7 waterproof and easy to clean. After each use, allow the probe to cool down before cleaning. Hand wash the probe with mild soap and water. Do not submerge the entire probe, especially the top black handle, in water for extended periods.
• Cleaning the Charging Base: Wipe the charging base with a soft, damp cloth. Do not submerge the charging base in water.
• Storage: Store the probe in its charging base in a dry place when not in use.
• Important Safety Warnings:
  • Do not expose the probe to open flames directly.
  • Do not use the probe in a microwave oven.
  • Do not wash the probe immediately after removing it from high heat; allow it to cool first to prevent thermal shock and potential damage.
  • Always use oven mitts or heat-resistant gloves when handling the probe after cooking, as the tip and handle can be very hot.
