INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing General Tools & Instruments’ DWS350SSQ Deluxe Fast Response Waterproof Digital Stem Thermometer. Please read this user’s manual carefully and thoroughly before using the product.
The DWS350SSQ is ideal instrument for spot­checking the temperature of food, liquids, laboratory solutions and specimens, soil, and ambient or forced air. It responds 10 times more quickly than the average stem thermometer.
KEY FEATURES
• Rugged, food-safe stainless steel probe
• Waterproof and dishwasher-ready
• °F/°C switch
• Min/Max memory + data hold
• Fast response
• Plastic sheath with metal pocket clip
• One button calibration
WHAT’S IN THE BOX
The DWS350SSQ comes in a white box along with this user’s manual. An “LR44” button battery is preinstalled in the battery compartment.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
To begin, carefully remove and discard the clear plastic film protecting the entire oval control panel. Then pull the thermometer from its sheath and press the
ON/OFF
button. Insert the tip of the probe at least 1/2 in. (13mm) into the solid or liquid material whose temperature you wish to measure. To measure the temperature of an airstream, place the tip of the probe in the middle of the stream.

At the factory, the DWS350SSQ was set to display temperature in °C.
To switch to °F
, press the
°C/°F
button. The thermometer will “remember” your last selection when it powers off and will resume using that unit upon restart. So if you always use the same unit, you will never have to press the
°C/°F
button
again. To extend battery life, the DWS350SSQ has an Auto
Power Off (APO) feature that automatically powers off the thermometer if no front-panel button is pushed within any span of 10 minutes.
To hold a measurement
(“freeze” the display), press
the
HOLD
button. An Hwill appear in the upper right corner of the LCD. To release the hold and resume real-time readings, press the
HOLD
button again.
The
H
will disappear.
To display the highest temperature value
measured since the MIN/MAX memory was last reset or the thermometer was powered off, press the
MIN/MAX
button once. The value will appear for 5 seconds, along with the term
MAX
in the upper right corner of the LCD. After 5 seconds, the display will resume showing real-time temperature values.
To display the lowest temperature value
measured since the MIN/MAX memory was last reset or the thermometer was powered off, press the
MIN/MAX
button twice. The value will appear for 5 seconds, along with the term
MIN
in the upper right corner of the LCD. After 5 seconds, the display will resume showing real-time temperature values.
To reset the MIN/MAX memory
, press and hold the
MAX/MIN
button for >3 seconds with either
MIN
or
MAX
appearing on the LCD. This will produce a display of “- - -._ F” or “- - -._ C” for 3 seconds, after which the LCD will resume showing real-time temperature values.
