using timer mode & temperature mode simultaneously
The TIMER MODE and TEMPERATURE MODE can be used simultaneously. This allows you to monitor the temperature for both FOOD
and BABECUE in the TEMPERATURE MODE when using the TIMER MODE to keep track of another cooking task. You can tell different
task by the alarm sound as well as the icons.
1 In the THERMOMETER MODE, when the temperature is reached, the receiver will alarm you by beeping once in every second for the
BARBECUE temperature and beeping twice in every second for the FOOD temperature. The alarm icons and probe temperature will
blink along with the alarm sound.
2 In the TIMER MODE, when the timer is reached, the receiver will alarm you by beeping 3 times in every second. Either the upward
arrow (for count-up) or downward arrow (for countdown) will blink.
procedure for typical use in an outdoor barbecue
The following typical examples will go through the steps to have the WIRELESS BARBECUE THERMOMETER alarm you if a piece of
meat (Boston Butt) is cooked to 160 ˚F if your barbecue temperature falls below 225 ˚F or goes above 250 ˚F, and remind you to check
the smoker in 2 hours.
Set up BARBECUE
Follow the registration procedure.
Place meat on the BARBECUE grill rack.
Insert FOOD probe sensor into the center of thickest portion of the meat. Avoid touching bone or heavy fat areas.
Clip the special BARBECUE probe to grill rack of barbecue chamber.
Position the probe sensor wires so they will not come into contact with flames and exit the barbecue without being pinched/ crushed
by the cover.
Stand/ hang the transmitter away from heat source of barbecue. DO NOT put transmitter on closed cover or under the cover. The
transmitter is water proof for use in rain.
In THERMOMETER MODE
Press HI/CLEAR to display the maximum FOOD temperature.
Press and hold HI/CLEAR until the maximum FOOD temperature flashes.
Press HI/CLEAR repeatedly until 160˚ F appears (press and hold HI/CLEAR button will increase the temperature 10 degrees per second)
Quickly press LIGHT/MODE to confirm the 160˚ F setting.
Press HI/HR to display the maximum BARBECUE temperature.
Press and hold HI/HR until the maximum BARBECUE temperature flashes.
Press HI/HR repeatedly until 250˚ F appears (press and hold HI/HR button will increase the temperature 10 degrees per second)
Quickly press LIGHT/MODE to confirm the 250˚ F setting.
Press LO/MIN to display the minimum BARBECUE temperature.
Press and hold LO/MIN until the minimum BARBECUE temperature flashes.
Press LO/MIN repeatedly until 225˚ F appears (press and hold LO/MIN button will increase the temperature 10 degrees per second)
Quickly press LIGHT/MODE to confirm the 225˚ F setting.
Press ALERT, ˚C /˚F, START/STOP to activate the temperature alarm for the BARBECUE and FOOD.
In TIMER MODE
Press HI/HR twice to set for 2 hours so that 2:00 will be displayed.
Press ALARM/START/STOP to start the countdown.
Press and hold LIGHT/MODE to go back to THERMOMETER MODE.
Clip the receiver to your belt or pocket and move up to 300 ft away from the barbecue. Go indoors if desired. You are now remotely
monitoring your food and barbecue. The receiver will beep and flash if your meat temperature goes above 160˚ F or the barbecue
temperature falls below 225˚ F or exceeds 250˚ F.
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.
