Troubleshooting & Maintenance

Helpful Hints

• If no temperature is shown: Ensure the probe is at room temperature. Push probe jacks firmly into the transmitter and twist to ensure good contact. If the issue persists, the probe wire may be damaged.
• If temperature reads too high or increases too quickly: Check that the probe tip is not poking through the food. Re-position the probe tip in the center of the thickest part of the food, avoiding bone or heavy fat.

Cautions

• Always wear heat-resistant gloves when handling hot probe sensors or wires.
• Keep probe sensors and wires away from children.
• Clean and thoroughly dry stainless steel probes after each use.
• Do not expose probe plugs or transmitter sockets to water or liquids to prevent bad connections and faulty readings.
• Wipe transmitter and receiver with a damp cloth; do not immerse in water.
• Do not expose the units to direct heat.
• Do not use stainless steel probes in a microwave oven.
• The probe operates between 14°F (-10°C) and 572°F (300°C). Do not exceed 572°F, as it will damage the wire.
• Not intended for use by persons aged 12 and under.

Cleaning

• Always wear heat-resistant gloves when handling hot probe sensors or wires.
• Keep probe sensors and wires away from children.
• Wash the metal probe tip with hot soapy water and dry thoroughly. Do not immerse the probe in water.
• Wipe the transmitter and receiver with a damp cloth. Do not immerse either in water.
