How to use

Place or mount the thermometer inside the refrigerator or freezer at a central location away from direct contact with ice or heating elements to obtain representative air temperature readings. Allow several minutes for the instrument to stabilize after positioning or after closing the appliance door before reading the dial. Regularly check the dial to confirm the internal temperature remains within the desired storage range and reposition if airflow or shelving cause atypical readings.

Usage recommendations

For accurate monitoring, install the thermometer at food level and avoid placing it directly against cold walls or food packages. Clean the stainless steel housing with a mild detergent and soft cloth; avoid abrasive cleaners. Periodically verify the thermometer's readings against a calibrated reference if precise temperature control is required for regulatory or safety reasons.
