A food thermometer can assist in the proper
EN
preparation of food. However, use of this elec-
tronic device does not guard against unsafe food
handling practices. Always follow proper food
preparation techniques to limit the risk of food
borne illness.
The stainless steel wire probe should not be
exposed to oven temperatures exceeding 716˚F
(380˚C).
Do not let probe or cable come into direct
contact with theoven elements, as this will
result in faulty readings and/or damage.
If the temperature exceeds or falls below the
measurable ranges, the LCD screen will display
the following letters: HHH for temperatures
above range and L L L for temperatures below
range.
