If you have a thermometer with external calibration option (standard on ADJ models) you can recalibrate the thermometer as follows:

Locate the 5/64 HEX set screw just under the head of the thermometer.
Loosen the HEX set screw 1/2 to 1 turn.
Immerse thermometer stem in minimum of two inches in an agitated liquid of known temperature for two to three minutes.
Hold thermometer head and stem. Slowly turn thermometer head until pointer is at the temperature desired.
Retighten HEX set screw.

NOTE: For accurate setting of the thermometer use a very accurate thermometer to verify the temperature of your liquid medium used to calibrate the thermometer.
