3. Hold in position for a few seconds and watch as the temperature rises and the RARE, M RARE, MEDIUM or WELL boxes beneath the FISH, RED MEAT, WHITE MEAT and POULTRY icons light up. The boxes light up as the temperature of the food reaches preset doneness ranges. These boxes correspond to the Temperature Range Chart below. Only one box per food icon lights up. It is simple to check the preferred

• Remove from food and clean according to the instructions. 

Caution: After use, allow the prongs to cool for 60 seconds before touching them.
