Battery Information
The thermometer operates on 2 AAA batteries (installed). If readings grow dim or irreg-
ular, the batteries may need to be replaced. To replace the batteries:
1. Use 2- AAA batteries. Always replace both batteries at the same time; do not com-
bine old and new batteries. Do not mix Alkaline, carbon-zinc (standard) or Nickel-
Cadmium (rechargeable) batteries.
2. Unscrew the 2 screws securing the battery compartment cover, located on the back
of the unit. Take care not to misplace the screws.
3. Place the batteries into the compartment as indicated by the polarity symbols
marked inside the battery compartment.
4. Replace the battery compartment cover and screws
General Operation
1. Preheat the oven to desired cooking temperature. Place the food in the preheated oven.
2. Sterilize the metal probe by inserting it into an appropriate solution such as boiling water for sev-
eral minutes.
3. Press the "Enter" button to turn the unit on. The LCD screen will turn on and display the current
probe temperature.
4. Your thermometer is preset to read temperatures in Fahrenheit. To switch to Celsius, press and
hold the "°F/°C" button for 3 seconds.
5. Press the "Enter" button to access the Meat Selection screen. The default setting "Beef
Rare140.0°F" appears. The temperature digits flash.
6. Press the L or M button to scroll though the 16 meat types and their preprogrammed target tem-
peratures. (See Meat/Temperature Chart.)
7. Press "Enter" to select the displayed meat type. The LCD screen returns to the current temper-
ature display. The name of the selected meat appears above the temperature reading.
8. To test the internal temperature of the food, unfold the metal probe and insert it into the thickest
part of the food. Do not come in contact with bone, fat or gristle, as these areas will not provide
accurate temperature readings. Take care when moving the probe into position to avoid injury or
damage. DO NOT LEAVE THE THERMOMETER IN THE OVEN WHILE COOKING, AND
DO NOT TOUCH THE HOT PROBE WITH BARE HANDS.
9. The current internal temperature of the food appears on the LCD screen.
10. Color coded lights behind the Taylor® logo indicate if the current temperature is lower, higher, or
within 5 degrees of the target temperature.
• If the temperature is lower than the target temperature, a blue LED light flashes.
• When the temperature reaches the target temperature, a green LED light flashes.
• If the temperature is higher than the target temperature, a red LED light flashes.
