the cable of wired probes, every probe can accurately measure the internal temperature of food, efficiently
reducing the waste of energy and food resources and preventing food-borne diseases; No more worries
about overcooking and undercooking. This product is ultra-easy to use. Just insert the thermometer probe
into your food, connect it to the phone app, and customize the settings. Then you can rest and wait for

sleep or shut down mode to conserve power. However, if you plan on not using the device for an extended
period, please charge the battery to 70% capacity to prevent it from entering a deep discharge state. Do
not fully charge the device before storing it, as this may shorten the battery lifespan.
If the device's battery power is low, the measured temperature results may be inaccurate, the indicator
and buzzer may be deactivated, or the device may be disconnected from the smartphone. Please charge it
timely. However, do not use any Type-C cable that is not 5V 2A to charge the device, as this may cause
damage.
