3.5 Mounting
• The iGrill2’s base is magnetic for convenient positioning on a cool
portion of your grill, smoker or other magnetic surfaces.
• The iGrill2 can be taken out of its base, rotated 180° and placed back
into its base for two different viewing angles.
• The iGrill2 comes with an optional magnetic disc with adhesive on one
side. This allows the iGrill2 to magnetically mount to a non-magnetic
surface. The magnetic disc has a protective cover on its face to protect it
from being scratched.
To mount your magnetic disc, please follow the below steps:
• Clean the surface thoroughly where the magnetic disc will be adhered to
ensure proper bonding.
• Remove the film covering the adhesive on the magnetic disc (not the
scratch protection film on the face of the disc).
• Adhere the magnetic disc to your desired surface.
• Let the magnetic disc bond to the surface for at least 24 hours before
mounting the iGrill2 to it.
NOTE:
• The base of the iGrill2 is not designed to withstand high heat and it
must be placed on a cool surface. If the surface is too hot to touch, it’s
too hot for the base!

3.6 Probe Use
• Acceptable Temperature Range: -22°F to 700°F (-30ºC – 371ºC)
• The iGrill2 probes should always be inserted into the center of the item
being cooked for an accurate temperature reading.
• The iGrill2 colored probe indicators are for visual identification of the
probe(s) within the app and cosmetic purposes only. They are not
designed for heat safety.
• The iGrill2 probes should be cleaned by hand with a dishcloth, standard
dishwashing soap and warm water. The probes are not dishwasher safe.
Take precaution not to get the probe’s wiring wet.
• The iGrill2 probe wraps allows for convenient storage of your probes
and are magnetic so that they can be stored under your iGrill2 when not
in use.
NOTE:
• Be sure to avoid water exposure to the probes’ wiring as well as the area
where the probes’ wiring meets the probes. The iGrill2 probes are not
waterproof and damage may result from water exposure. Probes should
never be submersed in water.
• When using a Pro Meat Probe, be sure to route the probe wire where it
will not be exposed to flames or temperatures exceeding 572° or 300ºC.
iGrill2 comes equipped with two Pro Meat Probes which can be exposed
to temperatures as high as 700ºF or 371ºC.
• Temperatures below -22°F or above 572°F (-30C – 300C) will not display
in the iDevices Connected app and will cause the probe to disappear
from connection.
3.7 Probe Wrap Use
To wrap your iGrill2 probe on the probe wrap:
• Hold the probe wrap so that the clip segment is on the bottom left and
the iDevices logo is legible in the center of the probe wrap.
• Snap the probe into the probe wrap’s clip, ensuring that the probe’s
body follows the contour of the probe wrap and leaves a ½ inch gap
between the probe and the wire channel of the probe wrap. The tip of
the probe should be pointing downward.
• Wrap your probe’s wire clockwise around the probe wrap.
• When you reach the adapter end of the probe wire, it can be inserted
into the probe wrap’s wire channel to secure the wrapping.
