D. Temperature Measurement
Important: THE PROBE MAY BE DAMAGED IF MEASUREMENT
TEMPERATURE IS LOWER THAN
-40°F/-40°C OR HIGHER THAN +572°F/+300°C.
Note:
The DTTW572 is intended for food service use — do not
use for safety related applications.
1. Insert the probe at least 0.25"/6.3 mm into
the food.
2. The current cooking temperature appears
on the display.
CAUTION: Probe may be HOT after use. Always wear a heat
resistant glove to touch the stainless steel probe during or
just after cooking. Do not touch with bare hands.
E. Data-Hold
Before withdrawing the DTTW572 from the food,
press the HOLD/CAL button. This will “hold” the
reading until pressed again.
h
flashes in the upper
left corner of the display.
F. Max/Min Mode
Max/Min Mode is always working behind the
scenes, continually storing the highest and lowest
temperatures.
1.
Before using Max/Min Mode, clear the
stored MAX/MIN values by pressing and
holding the MAX/MIN button in Max or Min
mode to clear the respective stored
MAX/MIN value.
2. Press the MAX/MIN button to display the
highest temperature.
H
appears on the display.
3. Press the MAX/MIN button twice to display the
lowest temperature.
L
appears on the display.
4. The display automatically returns to the
temperature mode after a few seconds.
5. While in Max mode, press and hold the
MAX/MIN button to clear the MAX value.
6. While in Min mode, press and hold the
MAX/MIN button to clear the MIN value.
G. Field Calibration
1. Fill a 1 cup measuring container with a slurry
of ice water using 3 parts crushed ice to
1 part water.
Note:
It is very difficult to get a 32°F/0°C ice water
temperature. It will probably be closer to 34°F/1°C.
2. Allow to stand for 3-5 minutes.
3. Immerse the probe into the middle of the ice
slurry to a depth of at least 2 inches.
Do not let
the stem touch the bottom of container.
4. Press and hold the HOLD/CAL button.
C0
appears on the display for 3 seconds and then
the current temperature appears on the display.
5. Press the HOLD/CAL button again to calibrate
to 32.0°F/0°C.
6.
CAL
appears on the display for 5 seconds
and then returns to the current temperature.
Note:
To avoid accidental recalibration, this function only
works when the water temperature is 30 to 34°F/-1 to +1°C.
Err
will appear for 2 seconds if the water is not within this
range and then return to the temperature display mode.
H. Battery Status
1. The display flashes when the voltage on the
batteries is low.
2. “
---
” flashes on the display when the batteries
need to be replaced.
Important: DO NOT LEAVE THERMOMETER CASE IN
HOT OVEN. CASE IS NOT HEAT RESISTANT. HAND
WASH AND DRY.
Note:
Remove label from display before initial use.
Clean the thermometer probe before each use.
Note for Induction Cooktops:
Sometimes, the induction
cooktop magnetic field may interfere with digital
thermometers. If there is interference, briefly turn off the
induction cooktop to get a digital thermometer reading
or use a dial thermometer.
Tip:
Meat should be allowed to “rest” for 10 to 15 minutes
after it is removed from oven. This allows time for the
meat’s internal temperature to stabilize and the juices
to redistribute. This will result in a roast that is both juicier
and easier to carve.
CARE OF YOUR PRODUCT
• Wipe clean with a damp cloth.
• Store the thermometer at room temperature
between -4 to +149°F/ -20 to +65°C.
PRECAUTIONS
• Always wear a heat resistant glove to touch the
stainless steel probe during or just after cooking.
Do not touch with bare hands.
• Dispose of used batteries promptly and keep
the batteries and thermometer away from children.
• Avoid subjecting the probe or thermometer to
an open flame on the BBQ.
• Avoid subjecting the probe and/or thermometer
to temperatures over 572°F/300°C.
• Clean the probe and thermometer with warm soapy
water and dry thoroughly after use.
• Avoid cleaning the unit with an abrasive or corrosive
compound, which may scratch the plastic parts and
corrode the electronic circuits.
• Avoid subjecting the thermometer to excessive
force, shock, dust, temperature, direct sunlight
or humidity. This may result in thermometer
malfunction, shorter electronic life span, battery
damage and/or distort parts.
• Avoid tampering with the thermometer’s internal
components, which may cause battery damage
and distort parts.
• Do not use the thermometer in microwave oven.
• Always read the user manual thoroughly
before operating.
