For your safety:
This product is exclusively intended for the range of application described above. This product should only be used as described within these instructions.
- Unauthorized repairs, alterations or changes to the product are prohibited.
Caution! Risk of Injury:
- Wear heat-resistant protective gloves when touching the probes during or after cooking.
- Be careful when handling the pointed probes. Store the device with its protective cap.
- Do not use the instrument in the microwave.
-
Keep the devices and the batteries out of reach of children.
-
Batteries contain harmful acids and may be hazardous if swallowed. If a battery is swallowed, this can lead to serious internal burns and death within two hours. If you suspect a battery could have been swallowed or otherwise caught in the body, seek medical help immediately.
- Batteries must not be thrown into a fire, short-circuited, taken apart or recharged. Risk of explosion!
- Low batteries should be changed as soon as possible to prevent damage caused by leaking. Never use a combination of old and new batteries together, nor batteries of different types.
- Wear chemical-resistant protective gloves and safety glasses when handling leaking batteries!
! Important information on product safety!
- Caution! Attach the thermometer to the outside of the barbecue's lid. Make sure your barbecue has a double-walled lid, otherwise heat can damage the thermometer. Use the heat insulation plate!
- Do not expose the thermometer to extreme temperatures, vibrations or shocks. Only the cooking chamber sensor (up to 400^ ) and the probes with handle and cable (up to 380^ ) are heat-resistant. Never hold the probes directly over a fire.
- The thermometer and the probes are splashproof, but not watertight. Do not immerse in water. Not suitable for dishwasher.

Getting started
Inserting the batteries In the thermometer
- Remove the protective film from the display.
- Open the battery compartment (Fig.1-B) on the back of the thermometer and insert two new batteries 1.5 V AAA. Make sure the polarities are correct. Close the battery compartment. The device will alert you with a beep, all LCD segments will be displayed and the backlight will turn on for a short moment. The device is ready for use.
The current temperature, the cooking chamber symbol (Fig.5-H) and the battery symbol (Fig.5-B) appear on the display.
Connect the probes
Pull off the rubber protection cover (Fig.1-C) carefully from the opening of the first probe on the left side of the thermometer. Plug the probe cable connector (Fig.3-K) into the jack (Fig.3-J).
Repeat the process for the second probe.
The display now alternately shows the current temperatures measured by the cooking chamber sensor, the insertion probe 1 and 2 (Fig.5-G).
You can also operate the device with only one or without probe.
Mounting the thermometer on the barbecue lid (Fig.4)
Make sure your barbecue has a double-walled lid, otherwise heat can damage the thermometer.
- The pre-drilled hole must have a diameter of 9 to 14mm and a depth of 6 to 27mm .
- Put the heat insulation plate (Fig.2-E) on the hole. The flat, longer side facing up. Now put the shaft through the hole and fix the thermometer on the back of the lid with the washer (Fig.2-F) and the screw nut (Fig.2-G).

Temperature monitoring when cooking BBQ
The device can be used to monitor the cooking chamber temperature in the barbecue and the core temperature of a maximum of two BBQ cooking items.
- Connect the two probes. For measuring the core temperature of meat, plunge the corresponding probe at least 2 - 3cm into the middle of the thickest part of the meat; for poultry, between the torso and the thigh - it should not touch bones or cartilage and it should not protrude from the meat. The probe should remain in the meat throughout the cooking process.
We recommend the clip for BBQ meat thermometers (Cat. No. 30.3525.60) to attach the temperature probe to the grill.
Now simply run the cable to the outside. Close the lid again. Be careful with sharp-edged frames and hinges. Do not use the cable wrap in the grill!
- In the app, select the cooking chamber sensor and the two probes one after the other and choose your desired settings. Select a preset target temperature via the type of meat and the desired cooking level or enter an individual target temperature or an upper and lower limit. Different levels of doneness available depending on type of meat.
The current temperatures and the target temperatures are shown in the app and alternately on the thermometer display.
Temperature alarm
The alarm settings can be configured in the app.
The alarm is activated on the thermometer and the app
as soon as the core temperature is reached
- if the set upper temperature limit is exceeded
- if the set lower temperature limit has fallen below
when the timer has expired.
Press the control button (Fig.1-A) on the thermometer to stop the alarm.
The alarm is reactivated after a selectable interval as long as the alarm event exists.
Illumination
- Press the control button on the thermometer (Fig.1-A).
The backlight is activated briefly.
Care and maintenance
Clean the thermometer and the probes with a soft damp cloth. Do not use solvents or scouring agents. Do not immerse the devices in water.
- Should water or steam enter the device's jack, it could affect the contact with the probe. Dry the probe connector with a cloth before connecting it to your thermometer.
- Turn off the device after use. Use the rubber protection covers for the jacks.
- Remove the batteries if the device will not be used for an extended period of time.
Battery replacement
The charging status of the thermometer's batteries is shown on a symbol with three bars (Fig.5-B, Fig.6-M).
If only one segment is displayed, please change the batteries.
Troubleshooting
| Problem Solution | |
| No display on the thermometer Switch | on the deviceEnsure the batteries' polarities are correctChange the batteries |
| Incorrect indication Change the batteries | Check the contact between probe connector and jack, dry it if necessary |
| No contact between the thermometer and the app | Reduce the distance between the mobile device and the thermometer (max. 50 m in open field), Re-pair devices |
| Core temperature is too high/too low | Check the position of the probe in the meat |
If your device fails to work despite these measures, contact the retailer where you purchased the product.
