Helpful Hints
If the receiver and / or the transmitter display LLL or HHH instead of the probe temperature, wait for
probe to reach room temperature. If LLL or HHH is still displayed or you get a false temperature, squeeze
the probe jacks harder into the transmitter and twist them back and forth so they make good contact. If the
problem still persists it is likely the internal probe wire has shorted out either through moisture or heat
damage.
Do not immerse the probe in water while cleaning.
Do not allow the probe or probe wire to come into contact with flames.
Within the warranty period, return defective probe to address below along with return address and we will
send you a replacement probe at no charge.
If the temperature displayed seems to read too high or the temperature seems to increase too quickly,
check to make sure the probe tip is not poking through the food to outside. Reposition the probe tip in the
center of the thickest part of food. Avoid touching bone or heavy fat areas.
Cautions:
1) Always wear a heat resistant glove to touch the stainless steel probe sensors or wires during or just after
cooking. Do not touch with bare hands.
2) Keep the stainless steel probe sensors and wires away from children.
3) Clean the stainless steel probes and dry thoroughly after each and every use.
4) Do not use the receiver in the rain. It is NOT rain proof. The transmitter is rain proof but not water tight.
Do not immerse in water.
5) Do not expose the plugs of the stainless steel probes or the plug in holes of the transmitter to water or
any liquid. This will result in a bad connecting and faulty readings.
6) Do not expose the receiver or transmitter to direct heat or surface.
7) Do not use stainless steel probes in microwave oven.
8) The Barbecue Thermometer registers temperatures as low as 32 º
F (0 º
C) and as high as 572 º
F (300
º
C). LLL will be displayed below 32 º
F and HHH will be displayed above 572 º
F. Do not use the stainless
probe sensor above 572 º
F. Doing so will deteriorate the wire.
9) Not Intended for Use by Persons ages 12 and under.
Cleaning
1) Always wear a heat resistant glove to touch the stainless steel probe sensors or wires during or just after
cooking. Do not touch with bare hands.
2) Keep the stainless steel probe sensors and wires away from children.
3) Wash the metal probe tips with hot soapy water and dry thoroughly. Do not immerse the probe in water
while cleaning.
