Low message is displayed during the measurement. Is there any problem with the product? Does this thermometer has any function regarding this?

David, I still use it and seems working fine. But this low battery signal is annoying.

The thermometer won't read anything that is below a certain temperature. It's in the user's manual, but I think it is around 66 degrees Fahrenheit. Is it possible what you were measuring was below this threshold? I've only seen this message when trying to take the temperature of an inanimate object. I hope this is helpful.

Also....if you had the thermometer outside, you need to wait (I think 30 mins) before using it inside. When my thermometer arrived, I tried to test it as soon as I brought the package in and it was giving me a "low message" and inconsistent readings. It worked out well afterwards but everytime I bring the diaper bag from outside, I wait a few minutes before using the thermometer.

How many months you got? My experience with this device is unhappy and I am still waiting for the alarm to go off. I trusted this thing and it read 2 degrees below zero all week, come saturday I went shopping and got some frozen food, went to put it in freezer and it was like a sauna in there...been that way all week. I went and checked the readout on the monitor and it still insisted that my freezer was 2 below zero. I junked the freezer and am stuck with the monitor.

there is a thermostat that goes low, medium, high. What I did was buy a a good quality thermometer, drill a hole in the lid and tighten the thermometer down which works pretty well, however keep in mind you may want to put it in the side a bit lower so you know what the temperature is in the lower rack rather than the top rack closer to the lid

mine works pretty good, sometimes I get measurements 1 mil off but I'm pretty sure it might be an error on my side, check if amazon can replace it.

I have found mine to be very accurate. Perhaps you did get a defective one and should ask for it to be replaced.

Yes. The lower part of the thermometer must sit in the "liquid". The biggest problem is that the black numbers showing the temperature came off very quickly. Must have gone into the jam!!! Also I found that the temperature was not exact enough in the area where I needed it to be exact. I returned my thermometer and now use the freezer plate and thumb method.

I recommend that you do what I did. When I first tried to use mine I found it to be off by at least 25 deg. Throw it away it's not worth messing with, then I went to a local restaurant supply and bought an analog thermometer that always works for the same amount. Your experience prove to me that my decision was the right one. Problem solved. David B.

No - I keep getting "low batteries" and the device will not take a reading. When I installed the new batteries, say issue. I've submitted a request to Withings to get their help

We have never experienced this issue with our scale. Always get a set number within a second or two. Maybe you have a defective item.

I think it does give a low toner message prematurely. The solution is to keep using it until the toner runs out.

Mine also did not show a message. One of the reasons I like this cable so well, it's long and sturdy and good quality.

The monitor will sound slow like it's struggling to keep going. If it doesn't get a reading a "O" or "error" will appear on the screen...if a reading comes up that doesn't seem accurate, I repeat the process to verify whether the first reading was right or not...though I feel like it's usually pretty accurate.

It it's not broken, mine does the same thing. I just don't use the lowest setting.

Another person reported this about an ERR message "The scale kept showing ERR when it arrived and I had put the batteries in it. I changed it from lbs to kgs and back to lbs. That cleared the problem and works great now. Easy to see display and auto shutoff is great." Make sure it is on a flat and level surface -- no rugs, carpets, or maps. Note that the scale may not weigh very light things under 10 or 15 pounds.

It is an accurate thermometer. But your question also has some liability issues and could be a "medical legal" issue also, so you do need to contack the manufacturer.

No, this probe didn't work. I'm not sure whether the problem was the probe or the base of the thermometer. It was quite disappointing as I didn't use the thermometer very much and I didn't think it would fail as soon as it did.

Yes, there is a warning message on the screen. I was a bit concerned at first but kept on using it. As it turned out, it works just fine (so far). I believe the warning message is essentially because it's not a OEM, e.i. not fully compatible with the entire system of the equipment, but still does the job. This of cause is my opinion.
