SAFETY:

Caution : These probes are not for contact with food or liquids, including highly acidic, alkaline, or salty foods such as citrus or tomato- based foods. Exposure outside of intended operating conditions could cause product deterioration, damage to probe, and/or impact to food quality.
Caution: Do not touch a hot metal probe with bare hands. Avoid exposing probe to direct heat except during measurement.
Only the metal portion of the probe can withstand temperature up to 300 F (149 C) not the entire instrument. The metal probe should not touch direct heating elements such as flames or grill surfaces.
Caution: Not Microwave Safe – Do not use in Microwave

Connecting a Type K Insertion Probe

This probe is a Type K thermocouple temperature probe. Ensure that this thermocouple matches that of your device. Be sure you insert the probe connectors positive (+) and negative (-) polarity correctly into the TYPE K connector of your device.

How to use the thermocouple holding cabinet surface probe: Make sure the Holding Cabinet slots are free of oiland debris. This probe atached to a thermocouple instrument can be used to read and compare temperature of UHC slots, top and botom heater plates. Refer to your restaurant guidelines for further specifications.

Calibration/Testing
The US Department of Agriculture recommends regularly calibrating food thermometers and probes. This is an important practice and a provision of the FDA Food Code:
Calibration Frequency: Probe should be tested for accuracy as prescribed by your HAACP plan or local food code.
Conditions such as extended high temperature exposure, severe environmental conditions or thermal or mechanical shock can affect probe accuracy. If used under these conditions, probe should be tested more frequently. Requiring calibration does not mean adjusting the calibration setings. When no “field” adjustment of calibration setings is introduced, you eliminate the risk of introducing error into the instrument.

Cleaning Instructions
Cleaning Between Uses: this probe should be cleaned between uses with individual alcohol wipes (ethanol or isopropyl alcohol) or with soapy water. When using an alcohol wipe it is important to let the probe air dry completely before use. Proper cleaning before and after each probe use will help prevent foodborne illness, extend probe life, and assure compliance with HACCP guidelines. Should you need to remove stubborn grease from probe, use a scouring pad or steel wool. Do not leave probes in sanitizing solution for an extended period.

Maintenance
The temperature probe is maintenance-free. Repairs are to be carried out exclusively by the manufacturer or by appropriately qualified personnel.
Product Disposal
Please follow local laws and regulations when disposing or recycling this probe. If your product contains electronic components, it must be disposed of separately from standard waste products.
