This replacement sleeve protects the appliance temperature probe and helps ensure accurate temperature sensing for reliable operation. Use it when the original sleeve is damaged, missing, or degraded. What it does:

• Shields the temperature probe from direct contact with food, moisture, or debris so the sensor reads more consistently
• Helps maintain proper probe positioning for accurate temperature measurements
• Prevents shorting or corrosion of the sensor in damp or exposed areas
• Common symptom: inaccurate temperature readouts or intermittent temperature control when sleeve is torn or missing

• Install over the existing probe; ensure the sleeve fits fully and the sensor tip remains exposed per OEM guidance
• Disconnect power to the appliance before accessing internal components to reduce shock risk
• Handle the sensor and wiring gently; do not stretch, pinch, or kink the probe or wire
