Frequently Asked Questions - AW129 OREGON SCIENTIFIC

How to install batteries in the control unit?

Remove the belt clip at the back, slide open the battery compartment cover, insert two AA batteries observing polarity, press the reset button with a paperclip, then close.

How to sync the control unit and probe?

After installing batteries in both units, press reset within 60 seconds on each device using a non-metallic pointed object.

How to switch from °C to °F?

Open the battery compartment of the control unit and set the °C/°F selector to the desired unit.

What do the audible alarms mean?

Three beeps: signal loss. Four beeps: temperature is 5 degrees from target. Continuous beep: target temperature reached. Fast continuous beep: meat is overcooked.

How to adjust the volume?

In the battery compartment of the control unit, move the Hi/Lo selector to the desired position (high or low).

How to clean the stainless steel probe?

Wash it by hand with warm water and mild dish soap. Do not put it in the dishwasher and do not immerse the control unit or probe.

What is the maximum distance between the control unit and the probe?

The maximum distance is 30.5 meters (100 feet) in open field.

What to do if the screen flashes?

If the numbers flash, it means the measured temperature exceeds the LCD display range (0-199 °C/°F). Check the actual temperature.

How to know when to replace the batteries?

The low battery icon appears on the screen: Main for the control unit, Remote for the probe, or both if both are low.

Can I use this thermometer for foods other than meat?

Yes, it measures internal temperature. However, the cooking presets are optimized for meat. For other foods, use manual mode if available or follow a recipe.

SETUP

INSTALLING THE BATTERIES

Follow these steps to install the batteries.

In the Monitor (Figures 3,5 and 7)

1. Slide down and lift the belt clip off the back of the monitor. Slide then lift up to remove the battery compartment cover.
2. Place two AA batteries in the compartment as indicated by the polarity symbols (+ and -).
3. Press reset in the battery compartment using a pointed object such as a paper clip (Figure 5).

NOTE Reset both the monitor and the thermometer seen within 60 seconds to synchronize signal transmission.

1. Replace the cover and the belt clip.

In the Thermometer Sensor (Figure 4)

1. Slide the battery compartment cover open.
2. Insert two AAA size batteries into the compartment matching the polarities (as shown). Press reset using a pointed object such as a paper clip.
3. Replace the battery compartment cover.

NOTE When 📋 appears on the monitor, replace the batteries.

°C / °F

(Figure 6)

To select Fahrenheit of Celsius, slide the °C / °F switch.

VOLUME

(Figure 6)

To adjust the monitor's volume, slide the Hi/Lo switch, located in the thermometer battery compartment.

LED INDICATOR

(Figure 2)

The red LED in the middle of the thermometer sensor flashes to indicate that it is on and transmitting.

SENSOR LOCATION

(Figure 7)

You can wear the monitor on your belt or stand it up on a flat surface. To stand it up, remove the belt clip from the back of the monitor. Insert the left or right side of the clip into the lower part of the slot, then snap the other side into the other lower slot.

CONNECTING THE PROBE

(Figure 2)

Locate the probe socket cover on the top right side of the thermometer sensor and carefully pull it out. Plug the wire end of the meat probe into the socket.

OPERATION

The doneness level selections, Rare, Med Rare, Medium, and Well Done only apply to beef, lamb and veal. For chicken, turkey, pork, fish, and hamburger the monitor defaults to Well Done.

1. Press and hold power until the thermometer sensor's red LED flashes. Then press and hold power until the monitor's green LCD lights and all display segments appear.
2. Press select (twice) until the desired meat appears. You can choose between BEEF, LAMB, (hamburger), PORK, (turkey), (chicken) or .
3. Press cook repeatedly to select the level of doneness.

TIP: This product gauges internal temperature only and is not meant to substitute recipe instructions. The ranges for meat types and doneness levels are guidelines only. Some recipes may call for the meat (such as turkey or chicken) to be removed from the heat source 15-30 minutes earlier, so that the internal temperature can continue to rise before the meat is carved. Always follow the recipe instructions to ensure that the meat is fully and properly cooked.

1. Place the thermometer near the cooking area and insert the tip of the probe into the center of the meat. Use the monitor's stand for easy viewing or use the belt clip.

NOTE

• For a clear signal, place the monitor within 100 feet (30.5m) of the thermometer sensor

• Place the thermometer sensor away from direct heat or flame. Do not rest the probe on the cooking surface as doing so can damage the thermistor inside the probe.

• When the meat is done, remove the probe from the meat and let it cool before touching it. Press power on the monitor and thermometer sensor to turn them off.

• Disconnect the probe from the thermometer sensor and replace the socket cover. After you finish cooking, wipe the monitor and the thermometer sensor with a damp cloth. Gently wash the steel probe only with mild dish detergent and warm water.

NOTE Do not use a dishwasher to clean the probe and do not immerse the monitor or thermometer sensor in water or liquid.

CHECK SIGNALS AND ALARM

SIGNAL

▲ Indicates no signal.
