General Operation

1. Sterilize the thermometer stem by inserting it into an appropriate
solution such as boiling water for several minutes.

2. Press the “Ent” (Enter) button to turn the thermometer on. The upper
display shows the current temperature. The lower LCD shows dash­es.

3. The thermometer is set to measure temperature in Fahrenheit. Press
the “F/C” button to switch to Celsius.

4. Press the “Ent” button to access the Candy/Food Selection screen.
The lower LCD screen displays a food type and a target temperature
for that particular food. The target temperature digits will flash, indi­cating the unit is in Candy/Food Selection mode.

5. Press the “+” or “-” button to scroll through the candy/food types and
their preprogrammed temperatures. (See the temperature chart
towards the end of the manual for preprogrammed cooking tempera­tures).

6. Press “Ent” to select the displayed food. The temperature digits will
stop flashing.

7. Use caution while handling the thermometer to avoid burns or other
injury. Always wear a heat-resistant glove when touching the ther­mometer during or after use. Do not use a wet or damp cloth. DO
NOT TOUCH WITH BARE HANDS!

8. Clip the thermometer on the side of the pan. The thermometer tip
should be at least 2 1/2" into the liquid. Do not let the tip of the stem
touch the bottom of the pan. Take care when moving the thermome­ter stem into position to avoid injury or damage.

9. When the liquid has reached the programmed temperature, the unit
will begin to beep.

10. Press the “Ent” button to stop the alarm. Otherwise, the unit will
beep for 5 minutes, then the alarm will automatically turn off. If the
temperature changes again within 3 minutes, the alarm will sound for
another 5 minutes as another temperature alert warning.

11. Press and hold the “Ent” button for 3 seconds to turn the unit off.
Otherwise, it will turn off automatically when the temperature reading
falls below 120°F for longer than 5 minutes.

Battery Replacement

The thermometer operates on one CR2032 lithium battery (as installed).
If readings grow dim or irregular, the battery may need to be replaced.
To replace the battery:

1. Gently pull off the silicone backing under the base of the thermometer
head.

2. Loosen the screws located inside the holes in the base/stem part of
the thermometer (The screws will not come all the way out).

3. Gently pull the base/stem part of the thermometer from the ther­mometer head. Do not pull forcefully, as the wires inside the ther­mometer may detach.

4. Remove the screw that secures the metallic battery cover. Gently
remove the battery cover. (Take care not to misplace the screw.)

5. Replace the old battery with the new battery, with the “+” sign show­ing.

6. Replace the battery cover (the 2 tabs opposite the screw hole should
tuck under the black plastic casing). Replace the battery cover screw.

7. Gently push the thermometer head and base back together until the
pieces click securely in place.

8. Replace the screws in the holes under the base of the thermometer.

9. Replace the silicone backing. The thermometer is ready for use.
