Important Safety Information
WARNING: Failure to follow these safety instructions could result
in re, electrical shock, other injury or damage.
Battery Replacement
The rechargeable battery in the EasyLog product should only be
replaced by ThermoWorks.
Repairing or Modifying
Never attempt to repair or modify EasyLog products. Dismantling EasyLog products, including the removal of external screws, may cause damage that is not covered under the warranty. Servicing
should only be provided by ThermoWorks. If the EasyLog product has
been submerged in water, punctured, or seriously damaged do not
use it before returning it to ThermoWorks.
Charging
Only use a USB Power Adaptor or a USB port on another device to charge EasyLog products. Read all safety instructions for any third party products and accessories before use with this product.
ThermoWorks is not responsible for the operation of any third party
accessories or their compliance with safety and regulatory standards.
We do not recommend charging the battery when the unit is at 104˚F (40˚C) or above. Some of our products employ safety features to
prevent this.
Using Connectors and Ports
Never force a connector into a port; check for obstruction in the port, make sure that the connector matches the port and that you have positioned the connector correctly in relation to the port. If the
connector and port do not join with reasonable ease they probably do not match and should not be used.
Disposal and Recycling Information
You must dispose of EasyLog products according to relevant laws and regulations. EasyLog products contain electronic components and Li­Po batteries and therefore they must be disposed of separately from household waste.
