Digital Cooking Thermometer/Timer
Operating Instructions
Over-done foods only detract from the taste and nutrients of food. Undercooking certain foods like pork, lamb or chicken can be hazardous to your
health. Because of different types, weights and shapes of meat, it is even
more difficult to determine the exact length of time to cook meat to your
desired taste. This digital thermometer/timer ensures you that your food
will be cooked to your preferred taste by pre-setting the corresponding
cooking temperatures and/or cooking time simply and easily. In order to
give you the best cooking results, please follow the instructions on the
back for maximum usages of this product.

2. Sterilize the metal probe with appropriate solution.
3. Insert point of thermometer probe into the center of meat. Do not place near the bone or gristle, as this will not give
you an accurate temperature readout.
4. Put meat in oven with the metal probe in place. The electronic unit must be placed outside of the oven. The probe
wire will be held in place by the oven door. (See Picture 1)
5. Make sure the sensor plug on the other end of the wire is plugged into the thermometer. The temperature of the food
can now be seen on the display under THERMO TEMP. (See Picture 2)
6. See enclosed cooking table to set desired cooking temperature for the food and doneness you would like to cook. Set

speedy setting.
C. Your set temperature will be shown on display under SET TEMP.
D. Slide the TEMP ALERT button switch to “ON” position.
7. The thermometer alarm will automatically sound when the inner temperature reaches your preset temperature. The
alarm will sound continuously for 5 minutes.
8. Press the START/STOP button and the alarm will stop temporarily. The alarm will continue to remind you every (1)
minute for 5 seconds until you turn it off. To turn the alarm off, slide the ALERT switch to the “OFF” position.

CAUTIONS:
1. Always wear a heat resistant glove to touch the metal wire or probe during or just after cooking. Do not touch wire or probe with bare hands.
2. Keep the metal wire and probe away from children.
3. Sterilize the metal probe before each use.
4. DO NOT expose the thermometer unit to water, direct heat or heat surface, or direct sunlight. If exposed to these elements, they may cause
damage to the electronic circuit or components inside.
5. DO NOT use this thermometer in microwave oven.
6. Water drops or vapors inside the plug-in opening of the thermometer will result in bad contact and thus incorrect temperature reading. Dry the
sensor plug with a cloth every time before plugging it into the thermometer.
7. DO NOT use the metal wire and probe for oven above 392˚F (200˚C) cooking temperature. Doing so will only deteriorate the durability of the wire.
