Thermometer Safety Check:
• Before each use place the thermometer stem in boiling water and ensure that it
registers approximately 212ºF +/- 20ºF (100ºC +/-10ºC). If it does not, contact
Masterbuilt to order a replacement.
• When thermometer is lowered into HOT oil, do not allow it to pierce into the turkey or
food. This will give a false reading.
• When the thermometer is in place the dial will continue to rise. Keep a constant check
on the dial to ensure the dial indictor does not stop before reaching 350ºF (177ºC).
• If the oil starts to smoke and the thermometer dial stops before reaching 350ºF (177ºC) turn burner off
and STOP COOKING IMMEDIATELY. A new thermometer is needed. If the thermometer supplied with
the appliance is lost or damaged call Masterbuilt to order a replacement at 1-800-489-1581.

Note: Do not allow thermometer to pierce into food. This will

If oil starts to smoke TURN BURNER OFF. This means the oil has exceeded 400ºF (200°C) and
could catch fire. Allow oil to cool to 350ºF (175°C) before relighting burner.
When cooking with oil ALWAYS turn off burner before lowering food into oil.
Relight after food is submerged in the oil.
DO NOT TURN BURNER TO A LOW SETTING TO KEEP OIL/GREASE HOT FOR LATER USE. THE
TEMPERATURE OF THE OIL/GREASE WILL CONTINUE TO RISE AND CATCH FIRE.
