temperature. Place the food in the oven or grill.
2. Sterilize the metal probe by inserting it into
an appropriate solution such as boiling water for several
minutes. Make sure the sensor plug on the end of the
cord is plugged into the thermometer base unit. (Note:
if the probe is not plugged in properly, the display will
show "LL.L".)
3. Insert the metal probe into the thickest
part of the food to be cooked. Do not
come in contact with bone, fat or gristle,
as these areas will not provide accurate
temperature readings.
4. Place the food into the oven or grill. The
thermometer display unit must be placed outside of the
oven or grill (do not put the plastic display unit in the
oven or grill). The probe cord will be held in place by
the oven/grill door. Note: Be careful not to excessively
bend or crease the cord during use. The cord should
not come into direct contact with
cooking surface or flame.

of the food appears on the LCD
screen of the base unit. As cooking
progresses, the base and remote
units will signal temperature alerts in
