Operating Instructions 
 
2.1 Measure Temperature 
Press the ON button.  The unit will display “888.8” for 2 to 3 seconds, then display the 
temperature.  If there is no probe in the probe jack, the unit will display “LO”.  Install the 
temperature probe into the probe jack (located above the display) to measure temperature. 
 
2.2 Display Min/Max Readings 
The Portable Digital Thermometer will display the lowest and highest temperature readings 
measured by the temperature probe since the unit was turned on.  For example, while the unit is 
on, the temperature being measured changes from 40º F to 100º F (4.4º C to 37.8º C), then 
drops to 60º F (15.6º C).  The display now shows 60º F (15.6º C).  Press the MIN/MAX button.  Dashes 
will appear, then the MIN value 40º F (4.4º C) for a few seconds, then the MAX value 100º F (37.8º C) for 
a few seconds, then back to the current probe temperature, 60º F (15.6º C).  Note also that while the 
MIN/MAX values are being displayed, the small characters on the right-hand side of the display will blank 
out to indicate the MIN/MAX function.  These characters will reappear when the actual probe reading is 
back on the display. 
 
2.3 Clear Min/Max Memory 
Press the MIN/MAX button to display MIN/MAX values.  While the MIN/MAX are showing on the display, 
press the MIN/MAX button again.  The display will show the letters “CL” to indicate that the memory has 
been cleared.  The Portable Digital Thermometer will then resume displaying the current probe 
temperature on the display, and begin to store a new set of MIN/MAX values.  If the unit is turned off, 
MIN/MAX values will be cleared.  
 
2.4 The “Hold” Function  
To “freeze” the current temperature reading on the display, press the HOLD button once.  The 
temperature displayed will not change while the hold function is active.  The display will alternate 
showing the temperature, and the word HOLD to indicate the hold function is still active.  To 
return to normal mode, press the HOLD button once again.  
 
2.5 Select Degrees C Display 
The temperature scale is normally in degrees Fahrenheit.  To display the temperature reading in 
degrees Celsius, press the ºF/ºC button.  A small letter “C” will appear at the right side of the 
display to indicate readings in degrees Celsius.
