I just picked up a new Blaze King Princess and I’m pretty excited about it, but I noticed that the thermometer that came with it has a dial on it that is loose and rotates freely on the probe.

This is probably a dumb question but is the nut on the top supposed to be tightened so that the dial can’t rotate and the red needle moves along the dial?
