Original MEATER Support Guide

Introduction to MEATER

• Temp Sensor Accuracy: Internal sensors are accurate to within .5°C/1°F and ambient sensors are accurate to within 5°C/31°F.
• Dual sensors: Dual temperature sensors in each probe can monitor internal meat temperature up to 100°C/212°F and ambient temperature up to 275°/527°F simultaneously.
• Guided Cook System: Walks you through every step of the cooking process to guarantee perfect and consistent results. You can also set up custom alerts/notifications based on temperature and/or time.
• Advanced Estimator Algorithm: Estimates how long to cook and rest your food to help plan your meal and manage your time.

Probe-Dock Compatibility

Original MEATER probes are the same as those used with MEATER Plus and MEATER SE. You can use them with these docks to extend the original MEATER's range.

The MEATER probe pairs with the MEATER app. It will not pair with the Traeger app or connect to a Traeger grill.

Safety & Care

Probe Care

• Cleaning Instructions
  • Alpha Collection probes are not dishwasher-safe.
    
    • Ensure probes are completely dry before placing them back in the dock.
• Do not use probes in a microwave or pressure cooker.
• Avoid dropping probes on hard surfaces.
• MEATER probes are not fireproof. Do not place the probe or dock directly on or near hot surfaces (e.g., the side of a grill in use).
• Do not touch probes with bare hands immediately after cooking, as they will be hot.
• Do not exceed the maximum temperature or maximum ambient temperature.
• When removing the MEATER probe from the meat, gently pull and twist in the same direction it was inserted. Avoid applying left/right/up/down pressure to avoid damaging the probe.
• Store in a dry, cool place.

Charging Dock Care

• Do not immerse the charging dock in water or other liquids.
• The MEATER dock is not fireproof. Do not place it directly on or near hot surfaces (e.g., the side of a grill in use).
• Avoid dropping the dock on hard surfaces.
• Keep the dock covered in inclement weather.
• Store in a dry, cool place.
• Keep the MEATER dock out of direct sunlight.
