Notes on Probe Usage

• Charge the probe for 25 minutes before first use.
• When removing the probe from the base quickly, the base screen may not display a number, indicating disconnection. This is normal. Wait for the probe to reconnect to the base; connection is faster in an open environment.
• If the base screen does not display a number, the probe may be disconnected. Go to the Device Settings page in the Govee Home App and follow in-app instructions to re-pair.

Setup and Connection

1. Fully charge the base before first use using the provided cable. Long press the Power button for 3 seconds to turn it on. Place the probe in the base to charge for 25 minutes before use.
2. Download the Govee Home App. Open the app, tap the "+" icon, and select "H5194". Follow the in-app instructions to complete the connection. (Only 2.4GHz Wi-Fi is supported for the base).
3. Take the probe out of the base; it will display the probe number and temperature. If no display, wait for reconnection or rebind the probe via "Device Settings" - "Rebind" and follow instructions to try pairing again.

Usage Steps

4. Insert the probe correctly into the food to detect temperature. You can also set the desired meat temperature for the corresponding meat. You will be notified by an alarm sound and an app notification once the temperature meets the target.
5. After grilling, ensure the ambient temperature has dropped to a safe level before removing the probe. Remember to wear heat-resistant gloves.
6. Use a clean damp cloth to wipe the probe after use. Then, place the probe properly into the Base to charge for next use.

Usage Notes

• In an open environment, keep the probe and base within 500ft (150m); in an enclosed environment, keep them within 10ft (3m).
• Place the Base at least 1ft (30cm) away from the cooking appliance to avoid potential damage from heat.
• High temperatures will affect the probe connection distance; try to keep the base close to the probe.

Temperature Alerts & Alarms

• Cooking Temperature Alert: When the monitored temperature reaches the preset cooking temperature, the alarm will sound and the app will push an alert notification.
• Base Battery High Temperature Alarm: Avoid placing the base in contact with high-temperature surfaces or environments. If the internal battery reaches 122°F (50°C), an alarm will trigger, and the base should be immediately removed. If the battery reaches 131°F (55°C), the base will automatically shut down.

Troubleshooting

1. Screen Display Error Codes

   Screen Display	Connotation
   E1	The probe is damaged; please contact customer service or buy a new probe.
   E2	The base temperature is abnormal.
   HHH/LLL	Probe temperature is too high/low.

2. Cannot connect to Wi-Fi

   • Check that the thermometer is connected to your Wi-Fi router's 2.4GHz network. 5GHz is not supported.
   • The thermometer's Wi-Fi connection distance is up to 328 ft (100 m). Ensure your Wi-Fi router covers this distance. Note that obstructions can limit coverage.
   • Place the thermometer as close as possible to the Wi-Fi router.

3. Cannot power on/off

   • The base has low power. Please charge the base before trying to turn it on.
   • Press the power button for 3 seconds to turn the thermometer on and off. If turned on, press again to switch between the current temperature and the preset temperature.
   • If the thermometer freezes and doesn't respond to button presses, use a needle or similar object to press the shutdown button to turn it off. Then, press the power button for 3 seconds to try turning it on.

4. Ambient temperature does not match the cooker

   Typically, built-in thermometers in cooking appliances measure temperatures in different spots than where you place your food. The Probe provides an accurate reading of the temperature your food is exposed to, aiding in the calculation of a more precise cook time.

5. Internal temperature does not match other thermometers

   • While the meat is still cooking, there can be variations in temperature in different parts of the meat due to differences in thickness, fat content, or proximity to bones.
   • The temperature sensor is at the tip of the probe. Ensure the probe tip is inserted into the meat. The temperature may be inaccurate if inserted inside a cavity.
   • Check if the screen displays an alarm temperature, and press the Power/Function button to switch the display.

6. Probe is disconnected from the base

   The grill may block the signal. Place the base near the probe with the upper/lower vent open.

   When grilling, keep the handle as far away from metal as possible.

   High temperatures will affect the probe connection distance; try to keep the base close to the probe.

   Check if the probe is fully charged/damaged. Exposure of the probe tip to meat can damage the probe battery. If damaged, contact after-sales service for replacement.
