Aurora
Digital Thermometer
Model # 24180-12
INSTALLER: Leave these instructions with consumer.
CONSUMER: Retain for future reference.
This digital thermometer is for replacement on an Aurora grill.
To install, follow the steps below:
1. Be sure the grill is completely cool.
2. Locate the old thermometer on the grill control panel between
the knobs. Remove it from the grill by slightly sliding it to
the left, then lifting the right side outward until it clears the
control panel.
CAUTION: Remove carefully as the wire harnesses will still
be attached to the back of the thermometer.
3. The wire harness will be taped. CAREFULLY cut the tape.
Important: Take note of the way the harness is taped, as
once the new thermometer is connected; the new
harness will need to be similarly taped.

4. CAREFULLY push the end of the clip down and pull apart
the wire harness at the connector, as shown in Fig. 1-1.
DO NOT pull apart from the wires.
CAUTION: Pulling connection apart from the wires may
cause damage to your unit.
5. If your grill control panel is equipped with a mirror panel,
skip this step and proceed to step #6.
If your grill control panel IS NOT equipped with a mirror
panel, apply the supplied gasket onto the thermometer by
removing the protective sheet and pressing the adhesive
side against the rear of the thermometer (see Fig. 1-1).
6. Connect the new thermometer wire harness to the exposed
wire harness coming out of the grill (see Fig. 1-1).
CAUTION: The wire harness must be properly connected
as shown in Fig. 1-2 (the clip and tab must align,
allowing for an easy connection).
DO NOT FORCE the connection together.
7. Ensure that the wire harness is properly taped using high
temperature electrical tape.
8. Carefully install the thermometer into the cutout on the
control panel.

Your grill comes with a digital thermometer for oven and
meat probe temperature monitoring, and timed cooking.
Pressing the power button will turn on the thermometer. The
thermometer will automatically shut off after 5 minutes if no
temperature change is detected.
The thermometer is located on the control panel between
the control knobs.
Plug in the meat probe on the right side of the control panel
as shown in Fig. 2-1. The thermometer battery access drawer
is also located there, see Fig. 2-2 (if applicable, only on
certain models).
FOR BEST PERFORMANCE, GENTLY PRESS THE
BUTTONS. When turned on, accurate temperature readings
will begin after the thermometer has initialized. When turned
off, allow 5 seconds prior to turning back on.
