Operating Instructions

TW362B ELECTRONIC COOKING THERMOMETER/TIMER

Over cooking food detracts from its taste and nutritional value.
Under-cooking certain foods, like pork, poultry and other meats, can
be hazardous to your health. Due to the different types, weights and
shapes of foods, determining doneness by time or color alone can
be difficult. The only way to know if your food has been cooked to a
safe internal temperature is to use a food thermometer.

The TW362B Electronic Cooking Thermometer/Timer helps ensure
that your food will be cooked to your desired internal temperature
by letting you pre-set the cooking time and temperature. For best
results, please follow the instructions on the reverse side.

USING THE THERMOMETER/TIMER

1. Pre-heat the oven to the desired temperature.

2. Clean the metal probe but do not immerse the cable.

3. Insert the tip of the probe into the thickest part of the food. It
should not touch any bone, fat, or gristle.

4. Turn the instrument on using the ON/OFF switch.

5. Place the food in the oven with the probe in place. Leave the
thermometer outside the oven. The probe wire will be held in
place by the oven door.

6. Insert the plug at the end of the probe wire into the thermometer.
The internal food temperature will show in the THERMO TEMP
section of the LCD display.

7. Refer to the Table of Suggested Cooking Temperatures and set
the desired cooking temperature for the food and doneness you
would like. Set the Temperature Alert as follows:

a. Slide the ALERT switch to OFF.
b. Press the UP or DOWN button to set the desired temperature

alert. Hold the buttons for faster adjustment.

c. The set temperature will show in the SET TEMP section of the

LCD display.

d. Slide the ALERT switch to ON.

8. The alarm will automatically sound for five minutes when the tip
of the probe reaches the set temperature.

9. Press the START/STOP button to stop the alarm temporarily. The
alarm will sound again for five seconds every minute until it is
turned off. To turn it off, slide the ALERT switch to OFF.

10. Remove the food from the oven, then remove the probe.

� CAUTION: The probe and wire are hot. Do not touch with

your bare hands.

11. Clean the metal probe with an anti-bacterial probe wipe or
equivalent. Do not immerse the cable.

USING THE TIMER ONLY

1. Press the HR and MIN buttons to set the desired hour and minutes
to be timed. Hold the buttons for faster adjustment.

2. Press START/STOP to start the countdown timer.

3. When the timer reaches zero, the alarm will sound for one minute.
Press START/STOP to stop the alarm.

4. Press the HR and MIN buttons simultaneously to clear the timer
display.

� CAUTION

1. Do not touch the hot probe or wire with bare hands during or
after cooking.

2. Keep the metal probe and wire away from children.

3. Clean the metal probe with an anti-bacterial probe wipe or
equivalent. Do not immerse the cable.

4. Do not expose the thermometer to water, moisture, direct heat,
surface heat, or direct sunlight.

5. Do not use in microwave oven.

6. Keep the plug at the end of the probe wire clean and dry. Water
or moisture on the plug can result in a poor connection and
inaccurate temperature readings.

7. Do not use the probe at temperatures over 392°F / 200°C. Do
not let the probe or cable touch heating elements, flames, or grill
surfaces.

8. Where elevated temperatures are required, shield the cable with
loosely wrapped aluminum foil. Replacement probes (model
362XX) are available from www.thermoworks.com.
