Smoke™ Operating Instructions

Getting Started

The Smoke and Smoke Receiver come pre-paired from the factory. To begin, turn both units on. Within 15 seconds, they will connect, indicated by 'con' on the receiver. The receiver updates information every 15 seconds from the base unit when in range.

Wireless transmission can be toggled on or off using the wireless button on the rear of the base unit. Wireless signals can be received up to 300 feet away without obstructions, and less if transmitting through walls or obstacles.

To set an alarm, press "SET" for the desired channel. Use the up and down arrows to adjust the High Alarm temperature. Press "SET" again to switch to Low Alarm Settings and adjust as needed. Pressing "SET" a final time saves the changes. Alarms can be turned off using the "ON/OFF" button if you do not want them to sound. Any sounding alarm can be muted by pressing any button. The Receiver will display updated Alarm settings within 15 seconds of adjustment on the base unit.

You are now ready to use Smoke for the first time.

What's Included

• Smoke (base unit)
• Smoke Receiver
• Batteries (Installed)
• Pro-Series® High Temp Cooking Probe
• Pro-Series® High Temp Air Probe & Grate Clip
• Lanyard
• Instruction card

Tips for Use

• Insert the cooking probe so that the tip rests at the thickest part of the meat or food. Avoid gristle or bone.
• Pinch the grate clip and attach it to the grill grate. Place the probe 1-2 inches away from the food, avoiding the sides of the cooker.
• The grate clip can be adjusted for different size grates by gently bending. It is recommended to leave the air probe in the clip while adjusting.
• Set your desired alarm temperatures. Chef-recommended doneness temperatures are provided. If cooking meat, set the alarm somewhat lower to allow for carryover heat during resting.
• Cables may be routed through oven doors or under BBQ hoods with the following precautions:
• Smoke's housing has an ambient temperature range up to 122°F (50°C). Do not attach Smoke directly to the side of a grill/smoker.

Cautions for Pro-Series Probes

• Use hot pads or gloves when removing the probe from meat, as it will be hot.
• Do not pull on the cable; use the molded mini-handle.
• Cables can withstand 700°F (370°C) and the transition/handle 644°F (340°C) for short periods.
• The probe tip itself is rated to 572°F (300°C). Do NOT expose the probe tip to flames or coals.
• Construction is moisture-resistant, but full immersion of the cable is not recommended.
• Clean probes by wiping with a damp cloth and kitchen cleaner.
• Keep the probe cable away from oven elements, flames, coals, grill or oven racks, all of which can reach temperatures far higher than 700°F (even if an oven is set lower). The probe cable can be damaged at higher temperatures; the inner insulation will melt, and the probe will short (displaying "NO PROBE!" on the alarm display).
• When using in outdoor BBQ grills or smokers, avoid pinching the cable between hot surfaces such as a cast metal grill hood without insulating protection. Use an access hole if available.
• Avoid repeated kinking or twisting of the probe cable, which can break wires.
• With care, the probe should last a long time. If the probe becomes damaged, the base unit will flash "NO PROBE!" below the temperature display. Replacement models include High Temp Cooking Probe #TX-1001X-OP and High Temp Air Probe & Grate Clip #TX-1003X-AP. Use only ThermoWorks Pro-Series Probes.

Pro-Series® Probes Overview

High Temp Straight Penetration Probe, 4.5-inch

The durable High Temp Straight Penetration Probe delivers better accuracy, faster readings, and a wider temperature range than probes sold with "low-cost" houseware temperature alarms. Model #TX-1004X-SP

Waterproof Needle Probe

An excellent choice for cooking thick or thin portions. Also ideal for monitoring the internal temperature of food during Sous Vide cooking. Needle probe delivers Super-Fast® 2-second response. Fully submersible. Model #TX-1002X-NP

High Temp 12-inch Probe

Great for larger cuts of meat, or deep insertion into soup urns, or hot holding tanks. Durable, fast, and accurate. Model #TX-1005X-12

High Temp Cooking Probe (included with Smoke)

The durable High Temp Cooking Probe is more accurate, delivers faster readings, and has a wider temperature range than other probes sold with "low-cost" houseware temperature alarms. The "L" shape allows for easy insertion and removal. Model #TX-1001X-OP

High Temp Air Probe & Grate Clip (included with Smoke)

Ideal for monitoring ambient temperatures in the oven or smoker. With the included grate clip, monitor ambient temperatures inches away from where your food is actually cooking. Model #TX-1003X-AP

CABLE SHOULD AVOID:

• Flames
• Immersion
• Racks
• Coals
• Elements
• Kinks

Damage from the above voids probe warranty. Pro-Series Probes are available at www.thermoworks.com/smoke. Pro-Series Probes work with Smoke™, ChefAlarm®, and DOT®.

Meat Temperatures (Chef & USDA Recommended)

Note: *PULL MEAT. LET IT REST - Remember to remove meat from the heat prior to reaching your ideal internal temperature. During the rest, the internal temperature may rise anywhere from a few to several degrees depending on cooking temperature and the size and thickness of the meat.

Smoke Base Unit Operation

Setting Alarms: Press "SET" to begin. The High Alarm will flash. Use the Up and Down arrows to set the temperature. Press "SET" again to store the temperature and the Low Alarm will flash. Set a temperature, then press "SET" again to store and exit the setting mode. Alarm temperatures can be changed during use by repeating these steps.

Indicators:

• Time to change batteries indicator.
• [Wireless Signal] indicator shows transmission is on.
• Ensure "On" is displayed next to each channel if you want to use the alarm function. Channel 1 alarm: BEEP <PAUSE> BEEP <PAUSE>. Channel 2 alarm: BEEP, BEEP <PAUSE> BEEP, BEEP <PAUSE>. Alarms will remain on until muted.
• PROBE 1 / PROBE 2 indicators show status.
• Continuous display of maximum and minimum temperatures. Reset by turning the unit on and off again. This feature can remind you of your start temp, the peak temp during resting, or a high temp that was reached when you were away.
• ON/OFF button turns alarm function on or off for that channel. Use "Off" if you don't want alarms to sound.
• [Wireless Signal] indicator shows transmission is on, flashes when transmission is received.
• Both Low and High alarm settings are always visible. Use the "Set" buttons to change settings. When an alarm temp is triggered, "LOW ALARM" or "HIGH ALARM" will flash even if sound is muted or silenced. ANY KEY SILENCES ALARM.

Controls:

• VOL button changes alarm volume setting or sets mute.
• Press the backlight button ? for 20 seconds. The light shuts off to preserve battery. Press again when needed.
• When 'NO PROBE!' flashes, the probe is not connected or has failed. Make sure the plug is fully inserted.

Smoke Receiver Operation

Calibration: New from the factory, your Smoke will read within ±1.8°F (±1°C) even after changing probes, so you should never really need to use the CAL feature. However, you can fine-tune the calibration for accuracy better than ±1°F (±0.5°C) with an individual probe. Go to www.thermoworks.com/smoke for full calibration instructions.

Controls & Indicators:

• Changes display between Celsius and Fahrenheit using the °C/°F button.
• Press to turn the receiver on, mute an alarm, and enable the backlight for 20 seconds. Press and hold for 3 seconds to turn the Smoke Receiver off.
• The receiver display updates every 15 seconds with live temperatures from both channels. It will also show the current Low/High temperature settings, and if the alarm is on or off.
• Press the wireless button ? to turn on or off the transmission to the receiver. This allows you to use Smoke as a standalone 2-probe alarm thermometer while conserving battery life.
• From the factory, your Smoke and receiver come paired and ready for use. You should only need to access the sync mode to add multiple receivers. For instructions on using the sync mode, visit www.thermoworks.com/smoke.
