SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
h
IMPORTANT
The device is a special battery-operated
electronic thermometer. Please read these instructions
carefully and ensure that you have sufficient general
knowledge of the product prior to use. In the case of
improper use any form of guarantee is void and the manu-
facturer declines any responsibility for injury or damage.
Improper use includes:
•
Use or application of techniques that diverge from
those described in this booklet.
•
Use after interference with product or parts that diverge
from the specified instructions for use in this booklet.
h
The device is not intended for use by persons (including
children) with physical, sensory or intellectual impair-
ments, who are inexperienced and/or lack knowledge.
h
The device may only be handled by adults for use as
described in the instructions for the purpose of preparing
steaks. Only use the device once activated (LED flashes
briefly approx. every 8 seconds). Do not use the device if
the LED does not flash after activation or stop using it if
the device switches itself off during use. Constantly super-
vise device during use. Do not consume meat if no double
flashing signal has appeared or the device has switched
itself off due to an error during cooking.
h
The 3" / 75 mm rod-type probe must always be completely
inserted into the meat so that only the wings protrude from
the meat. The probe must be fully protected by at least
0.2" / 5 mm of meat from the ambient heat.
h
The device must be removed from the heat source (e.g. grill
or frying pan) at the latest when the LED emits a red double
flashing signal. Further exposure to heat can damage the
device or electronics. Never expose the device to more
than 160°F / 70°C of heat.
h
Do not use in microwave ovens.
h
Never open the device.
h
During use the display wings of the SteakChamp can
become hot to the touch. Please therefore always wear
protective mittens when handling it. Do not remove the
device from the steak until the device has cooled down and
always use the dedicated extraction aid (activator) supplied
with the device for removal. Caution: There is a risk of injury
caused by the tip of the probe or the sharp edges of the
device.
h
Please handle this electronic product with care. Blows,
bumps or impact from falling even from low heights may
cause damage or impair function.
h
The device is intended solely for domestic use.
CLEANING AND STORAGE
h
Rinse under running water with a mild detergent. Do not
wash in the dishwasher. Clean the device before first use
and immediately after each use with a damp cloth or
sponge. For reasons of hygiene we recommend cleaning the
device before each use. Do not immerse the device in water.
h
The device should be stored in the packaging it came in and
must be stored at a temperature between 15°F / -10°C and
120°F / +50°C.

vated by contact with magnets and thus use up the battery.
Good for use on induction cooktops.
NOTES ON DISPOSAL/Battery

energy-saving LED technology and therefore uses very
little power. Battery replacement is not possible.
