- Exercise extreme caution when measuring hot oil. The oil can cause severe burns. Use the ergonomic grip to protect your hand.
- Ensure the oil temperature is within the specified operating range before measurement.

- Ensure the oil is at the appropriate temperature for measurement (typically between 104°F and 374°F / 40°C and 190°C).
- Carefully immerse the probe into the hot oil. Ensure the immersion depth is sufficient (approximately 1.38 inches / 35 mm) to cover the sensor.
- Hold the device steady. The display will show the temperature and Total Polar Material (TPM) percentage nigbakanna.
- The device features a traffic light system for TPM levels:
- Alawọ ewe: Oil quality is good (TPM below threshold, typically < 20%).
- Ọsan: Oil quality is borderline (TPM approaching threshold, typically 20-24%).
- Pupa: Oil quality is poor, oil needs changing (TPM above threshold, typically > 24%).
- Use the "HOLD" function to freeze the displayed measurement for easier reading.
- Remove the probe from the oil after measurement.
