INSTRUCTION MANUAL MODEL OT-03 BBQ
lntroduction
congratulations on your purchase ofthe Digital BBQ/oven Thermometer and Electronic
Timer. As most barbecue cooks know the temperature on the cover of a typical grill can vary
greatly from the temperature at the grill surface. AIso lifting the cover on a grill to check your
food allows tremendous heat loss which ultimately changes the cooking time. Now you can
view the temperature inside your BBQ/Oven without lifting the cover and you can know the
average temperature inside your grill, at the grill surface, during your cooking process.The
thermometer will take continual readings every ten seconds and then average them once the
temperature has reached 30'F below your set temperature.
