My cooking thermometer: to remove its battery cover, you give the little cover a twist counterclockwise, and it pops off.

As I don't know the thermometer you have, I don't know whether a screwdriver is needed. Did any instructions come with the unit? Naturally, if it says to remove the strip before pushing a button, and you push the button without removing the strip, nothing will happen. --- Shepherds are the best beasts, but Labs are a close second. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Allison Fallin" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]>; "Bob Kennedy" <[email protected]> Sent: Saturday, January 26, 2013 10:28 AM Subject: Re: [CnD] Question about talking cooking thermometers > I got my thermometer, and it says to remove the strip to activate > the battery using the button on the rear.
