Product Features
800FT Stable Wireless Connection
The thermometer utilizes Bluetooth 5.2 technology and supports base signal relay, providing a stable long-distance connection up to 800 feet in unobstructed environments. This allows for remote temperature monitoring and cooking alerts via the app, reducing the need to constantly attend to the cooking appliance.

Operating Instructions
1. Inserting the Probe
Carefully insert the probe into the thickest part of the meat, avoiding bones. Ensure the probe is inserted deep enough so that the internal sensor (tip) is fully within the meat and the ambient sensor (near the black cap) is exposed to the cooking environment.

2. Monitoring Temperatures
Once the probe is inserted and the device is paired, monitor the temperatures via the CHEFBBQ app or directly on the base's LCD screen. The app provides real-time graphs and allows for custom temperature settings.
3. Setting Target Temperatures
Use the CHEFBBQ app to select your desired meat type and doneness level from the USDA presets, or set a custom target temperature. The app will provide alerts when the target temperature is reached.

4. Alerts and Notifications
The device base and the app will provide audio and push notifications when the meat reaches its target temperature. This allows you to remove the food at the optimal time.
Maintenance
Cleaning the Probe
The probe is IPX7 waterproof and can be rinsed directly under running water after use. Use a soft cloth and mild detergent to clean the probe. Do not submerge the base unit in water.

Troubleshooting
Connectivity Issues
- Ensure Bluetooth is On: Verify that Bluetooth is enabled on your smartphone and the device base is powered on.
- Proximity: While the device has an 800ft range, ensure the base and your phone are within a reasonable distance, especially in environments with obstructions.
- Re-pair Device: If connection is lost, try closing and reopening the app, then re-pairing the device.
- App Permissions: Check that the CHEFBBQ app has necessary Bluetooth and location permissions enabled on your phone.
Inaccurate Readings
- Proper Insertion: Ensure the probe is inserted correctly into the thickest part of the meat, avoiding bones. The internal sensor must be fully embedded.
- Probe Condition: Inspect the probe for any visible damage or bends that might affect accuracy.
- Calibration: While the device features an AI chip for automatic calibration, if persistent inaccuracies occur, consult the app for any manual calibration options or contact support.
No Alerts
- App Notifications: Verify that notifications are enabled for the CHEFBBQ app in your phone's settings.
- Base Volume: Check the volume settings on the device base.
- Target Temperature Set: Ensure a target temperature has been set in the app for the alerts to trigger.
