Procedure for typical use on an outdoor grill:

Thermometer alert you to when a beef steak is cooked to medium (USDA doneness level) and remind you to
rotate hot dogs in 5 minutes.
1. Turn on the grill.
2. Follow the registration procedure.
3. Place steak and hot dogs on grill rack.
4. Insert probe sensor into the center of thickest portion of the steak. Avoid touching bone or heavy fat areas.
Assume the meat temperature is 45 °F.
5. Position the probe sensor wire so they will not come into contact with flames and exit the grill surface area
without being pinched/crushed by the grill cover.
6. Stand the transmitter away from heat source of grill. DO NOT put transmitter on closed cover or under the
cover. The transmitter is not waterproof DO NOT use in the rain.

10. Press MIN 5 times to set for 5 minutes so that 0:05 is displayed. Press START/STOP to start the
countdown. Press MODE to go back to thermometer mode.
11. Clip the receiver to your belt or pocket and move up to 100 ft away from the outdoor grill. Go indoors if
desired.
12. When 5 minutes are up the receiver will beep for 60 seconds.
13. When the temperature of probe in the steak reaches 55 °F the LCD backlight will flash blue.
14. When the temperature of probe in the steak reaches 135 °F the LCD backlight will flash green.
15. When the temperature of probe in the steak reaches 150 °F MEDIUM the receiver will beep and the LCD
backlight will flash red.
16. Press STOP to turn off the alert.

17. Turn off the transmitter.
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 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. If cooking with grill cover closed, only
use medium or low heat.
If the probe becomes defective within 90 day warranty period please return defective probe to
address below along with return address and we will send you new probe 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:
Always wear a heat resistant glove to touch the stainless steel probe sensor or wire during or just
after cooking. Do not touch with bare hands.
Keep the stainless steel probe sensor and wire away from children.
Not Intended for Use by Persons ages 12 and Under
Clean the stainless steel probe and dry thoroughly after each and every use.
Do not immerse the probe or wire in water. Clean using a damp, soapy cloth.
Do not use the receiver or transmitter in the rain. They are not waterproof.
Do not expose the plug of the stainless steel probe or the plug in hole of the transmitter to water or
any liquid. This will result in a bad connection and faulty readings.
Do not expose the receiver or transmitter to direct heat or surface.
Do not use stainless steel probe in microwave oven.
The Professional Remote Cooking Thermometer registers temperatures as low as 14
°
F (-10
°
C) and
as high 572
°
F (300
°
C). LLL will be displayed below 14
°
F and HHH will be displayed above 572
°
F. Do
not use the stainless steel probe sensor above 482
°
F. Doing so will deteriorate the wire.
Cleaning
Always wear a heat resistant glove to touch the stainless steel probe sensor or wire during or just
after cooking. Do not touch with bare hands.
Keep the stainless steel probe sensor and wire away from children.
Wash the metal probe tip with hot soapy water and dry thoroughly. Do not immerse the probe in water while
cleaning.
Wipe the transmitter and receiver with damp cloth. Do not immerse either in water.
