Description

This hardworking thermometer from Taylor is a great tool for every home cook. It gives you rapid temperature readings, has a wide temperature range and can hold readings even after its been removed from your food. This thermometer is also IPX5 water-resistant for worry-free handwashing after use. Using advanced thermocouple technology, this Taylor thermometer reacts faster to changes in temperature and gives a more stable reading than traditional thermometers. It provides a stabilized reading in 6 seconds or less in food, reading temperatures ranging from -40°F to 572°F.

The ultra-thin 1½-mm tip leaves a much smaller hole in your food, so fewer flavorful juices will escape as you check the temperature throughout the cooking process. Also features a HOLD function, which stores the temperature of your food on the bright red backlit display even when removed. The 4" stainless steel probe folds into thermometer casing for storage and acts as the ON/OFF switch.

QUALITY AND PRECISION: Taylor has been making precision products for kitchen measurement for over 170 years, using only the highest quality components for accurate temperature tracking. Measure precisely in both Fahrenheit and Celsius units.

CONVENIENT FEATURES: HOLD function locks temperature into place on the display even when the thermometer is removed from the food.

HIGHLY ACCURATE: Extra-wide temperature range: -40F to 572F / -40C to 300C. IMPORTANT: The F/C switch is located in the battery compartment.

BATTERY INCLUDED: Operates on one CR2032 battery (included).

HELPFUL HINTS: Digital thermometers are NOT meant to be left in food during cooking. The plastic and electronic components could be damaged with excessive heat.

NOTE: The display will go dim during use to conserve battery life, active temperature monitoring is still occurring - press the HOLD button to reactivate the display.

Q: How do you change from Celsius to Fahrenheit.

submitted by Mnm - 2 years ago

  • A: To switch to C, remove the battery cover and battery to access the switch, located in the hole under the C/F marking on the therm case. Move the switch with a small tool. Replace battery & cover.

    submitted byblh224 - 2 years ago

  • A: Hello! It's inside the battery compartment. The thermometer is preset to Fahrenheit. To switch to Celsius, remove the battery cover and battery to access the switch, located in the hole under the C/F marking on the thermometer case. Move the switch with a small tool. Replace the battery and battery cover. Hope that helps. If you have additional questions, please reach back out. Thanks!

Q: Hello. I bought this thermometer today I unfolded the probe but nothing happened. The instructions state that when the probe is u folded the thermometer will turn on. No 888.8 then zero! Nothing.

submitted by Nonna - 2 months ago

  • A: Hi Nonna, Please try opening the battery compartment and see if the plastic tab is still there. It's folded on top of the battery and sealed within the door based on the turn to close door style. Once that is removed, the thermometer should work. If you have still having issues, please contact customer service - Call Us 1-866-843-3905 M-F 8 am-5 pm MST or Email Us taylorusa@lifetimebrands.com and we would be happy to troubleshoot for you. Thanks!

Q: How do you recalibrate the probe? It started reading way off.

submitted by Sarah - 4 years ago

  • A: Hi Sarah, Here are the directions for recalibrating your thermometer. 1. Fill a container with crushed or chipped ice. 2. Add water slowly until it overflows. 3. Add more ice until it is packed tightly to the bottom of the container, allowing excess to overflow. 4. Insert the stem of the thermometer at least 2” into the container, making sure it does not touch the sides or bottom of the container, and allow it to stabilize for 5 minutes. 5. If the temperature reading is 32°F (0°C), the thermometer is accurately calibrated. 6. If it is necessary to adjust the thermometer, press and hold the “Hold” button for 3 seconds. 7. The display will show “CALu” and enter user calibration mode. 8. When the LCD flashes, press and hold the “Hold” button for another 3 seconds to adjust the calibration value. 9. The thermometer is now calibrated. 10. If the “Hold” button is not press within 5 seconds when the LCD is flashing, the calibration mode is automatically exited back to normal operation. If you have any other questions, please reach back out. Thanks!

    Avoid

    The screw for the battery compartment is tiny, you need a micro screw driver to open it, which I don’t have. The pull tab could have been placed such that it can be removed without having to remove the battery compartment. Whoever designed this did a terrible job. I would have expected better for the price I paid.

    It doesn’t work. Returned it and got the same brand thinking I just got a bad one and the new one didn’t work either. Fiddled the battery and everything. I’ve never wrote a review before but this one made me mad.

    Junk

    This thermometer never worked; out of the box it wouldn't turn on. I've opened the battery cover (with a tiny screwdriver) and fiddled with the battery, and sill nothing.

    Complete trash does not even turn on

    This does not work at all. It doesn’t even turn on. I tried to return it through the app but it claims it can’t be returned, or even selected as a product to request help for. I no longer have the packaging because I didn’t think it would be a defective item.

    Could not open the battery cover to remove the protective slip. The thermometer cannot work until the protective slip is off. What a piece of junk. Do not buy.

    Do not know if it works like it says because either the battery provided is dead or it doesn’t work. Rather disappointing.

    Not worth the price

    Check with a glass of ice water. Seemed accurate. Display is dimly lit. Came with a dead battery. Shuts off quickly need to use the hold function to see temp. Magnet does not hold weight of item to hang up. Over priced for the quality of item.
