Instrument Operation
Press the power button to activate the thermometer. The unit will turn off automatically after 35 minutes to save battery life. Press and hold the power button for 3 seconds to turn off EXEC. To activate the backlight, press the power button once while the instrument is turned on. Press again to turn it off.
Insert the stainless-steel probe to the desired depth. The measured temperature will be shown on the LCD display within 3 to 4 seconds.
Using MIN/MAX
Press the MAX/MIN button to read the last highest / maximum temp measured.
Press once more to read the last lowest / minimum temperature measured.
Press once more to return to the normal display.
Press and hold the MAX/MIN button for three seconds then release it to reset the memory.
MAX and MIN are reset when the unit is powered off.
Battery Installation
Replace the battery when the low battery symbol ‘Bat’ flashes. Replace with a 3 volt, type CR1632, button-cell battery or equivalent.
Use a screwdriver of a suitable size to open the battery cover on the back.
Install the battery observing the correct polarity, (+) positive side up, sliding the battery under the metal clip.
Close the battery cover.
To Select ˚F or ˚C
Press the °C/°F button on the back of the thermometer to select the desired temperature unit.
Calibration Trim
New from the factory EXEC should read within ±0.9°F. Normally a calibration adjustment should never be needed. For instructions on performing a one-point calibration trim go to the EXEC webpage at www.thermoworks.com.
Care and Cleaning
Clean the probe immediately after each measurement to avoid cross-contamination. Do not expose the thermometer body to temperatures over 122°F (50°C). Do not leave inside ovens. Avoid submerging the entire thermometer.
