the probe into the meat.

The probe current temperature and target temperature
are both displayed in the format “105/180” at the
lower right corner of the display. The actual
temperature will display <80 until the food temperature
reaches 80°F.
The displayed probe temperature is updated in
increments of 5° during the cooking process.

When the probe temperature reaches the set
temperature, the cooking mode turns off. The current
