In thermometer mode, the main unit displays the food temperature measured by the remote sensor
and prompts the user about the cooking level.
The user firstly selects a food type (e.g. Turkey) and a cooking level (e.g. Well done). The main
display unit will automatically set the target temperature (170 °F).
When the food temperature is within 10°F of the target temperature (e.g. 160°F), the main unit will
beep twice and voice prompt; “ Your food is almost ready”. The unit will repeat the above two
beeps and the voice after 4 seconds silence.
When the food temperature reaches the target temperature, the main unit will beep 3 times and
voice prompt; “Your food is ready”; The unit will repeat the above three beeps and the voice at 30
second interval for 10 minutes. The alert icon will blink simultaneously. The user can press [STOP]
button to stop the voice.
When unit has not received any valid data from the linked transmitter base for more than 1 minute,
the RED LED will blink at 1Hz and the speaker beep once every 3 seconds to prompt the user for a
RF loss link. In order to re-link up the transmitter and the receiver, the user must get the transmitter
base close to the receiver and make sure not iron obstacle between them to block the RF signal.
Displayed food temperature range: -10°C to +250°C (+14°F to +482°F)
Displayed temperature resolution : 1°C (2°F)

Transmitter Features
BATTERY COMPARTMENT – holds 2 AA batteries.
S1–plug in for stainless steel probe sensor
Putting the receiver inside the transmitter base
If you do not want to monitor your food remotely the unit can be used with the receiver docked
inside the transmitter base.
The receiver can be placed inside the transmitter base by locating the slot on the bottom of the
receiver with the tab of the transmitter base and allowing the receiver to tilt back. Do not force the
receiver onto the tab.
Your unit should be stored this way when not in use.
Description of buttons
1. CLOCK/TEMP – Slide switch to set the transmitter base to clock mode or cooking temperature
mode. For battery power saving, keep the switch in clock position to display a clock time while
the transmitter is not in use to monitor the cooking temperature.
2. TX – transmit manually, terminates the auto registration process. Press and hold for 2 seconds to
register the radio frequency with the receiver.
3. SET – In clock time display mode, press and hold [SET] for 2 seconds to enter clock setting mode
4. UP – Increase the Hour or Minute in clock setting mode

Registration Procedures
Open the battery compartment of receiver and insert the two “AAA” batteries. Remove the
battery door of the transmitter and insert the two “AA” batteries.
The Remote Thermometer needs the receiver to register the radio frequency signal from the
transmitter.
Battery installation for the transmitter.
1. Plug the stainless steel probe sensor into the plug in of the transmitter.
2. Turn the receiver on by sliding switch the [On/Off] switch from OFF to ON.
3. Insert 2 AA size 1.5V alkaline batteries into the transmitter according to battery polarity mark.
This needs to be done within 60 seconds of turning on the receiver in order for the receiver to
register the signal from the transmitter. If it doesn’t beep within 5-10 seconds, press and hold [TX]
button inside the battery compartment of the transmitter for 2 seconds.
4. Registration is complete when the unit beeps and the probe temperature appears where the
“---” was flashing.
Receiver is off and transmitter is on.
1. Plug the stainless steel probe sensor into the plug in of the transmitter.
2. Turn the receiver on by sliding the [On/Off] switch from OFF to ON.
3. Press and hold [TX] button in the transmitter for 2 seconds. This needs to be done within 60
seconds of turning on the receiver in order for the receiver to register the signal from the
transmitter. Once [TX] is released it will take several seconds for the receiver to register. If it
doesn’t beep within 5-10 seconds press and hold [TX] again.
4. Registration is complete when the unit beeps and the probe temperature appears where the
“---” was flashing.
HELPFUL HINTS
If the receiver and/or the transmitter display LLL or HHH instead of the probe temperature, wait for
probe to reach room temperature. If LLL or HHH is still displayed it is likely the internal probe wire has
Page 6
Manual draft for MAV210
Page 6 of 7
shorted out either through moisture or heat damage.
Do not immerse the probe in water while cleaning.
Do not allow the probe or probe wire to come into contact with flames. If cooking with grill cover
closed, only use medium or low heat.
Make sure the probe tip is inserted into the meat at least 1 inch.
If the temperature displayed seems to read too high or the temperature seems to increase too
quickly check to make sure the probe tip is not poking through the food to outside. Reposition the
probe tip in the center of the thickest part of food. Avoid touching bone or heavy fat areas.
Cautions:
Always wear a heat resistant glove to touch the stainless steel probe sensor or wire during or just
after cooking. Do not touch with bare hands.
Keep the stainless steel probe sensor and wire away from children.
Clean the stainless steel probe and dry thoroughly after each and every use.
Do not use the receiver in the rain, It is not waterproof.
Do not expose the plug of the stainless steel probe or the plug in hole of the transmitter to water or
any liquid. This will result in a bad connection and faulty readings.
Do not expose the receiver or transmitter to direct heat or surface.
Do not use stainless steel probe in microwave oven.
The Remote Thermometer registers temperatures as low as 14°F (-10°C ) and as high 410°F (210°C ).
LLL will be displayed below 14°F and HHH will be displayed above 410°F. Do not use the stainless
steel probe sensor above 410 °F.
Doing so will deteriorate the wire.
Cleaning
Always wear a heat resistant glove to touch the stainless steel probe sensor or wire during or just
after cooking. Do not
touch with bare hands.
Keep the stainless steel probe sensor and wire away from children.
Wash the metal probe tip with hot soapy water and dry thoroughly. Do not immerse the probe in
water while cleaning.
Wipe the transmitter and receiver with damp cloth. Do not im merse either in water.
