Operation
Weighing
1. Place the scale on an even, firm and dry surface.
Carefully position the scale in order to avoid hard shocks to the sensors/feet and
therefore any damage.
2. Press ON/ZERO to turn on the scale.
Wait until "0" appears on the display.
3. Select the desired measurement unit by tapping UNIT.
You can choose between "g" (grammes) or "oz" (ounces).
Pay attention to the indication on the display.
4. If you want to weigh an item or substance in a container, now place the container
without anything in it onto the weighing surface. Otherwise, proceed as described
in Section 6.
5. Press ON/ZERO. "0" will be displayed.
6. Put the item or substance to be weighed into the container or place it onto the
weighing surface.
The measured weight is shown on the display.
7. Read off the measured weight and remove the item or substance from the
container or the weighing surface.
Resetting the scale to zero
If the display is still showing a minus value (symbol ), although there is nothing on the
weighing surface (for example, if the scale is not positioned properly or a TARE value is
still displayed; see next section), you must reset the scale to zero.
− Press ON/ZERO.
Using the tare function (TARE)
This function is practical when baking, for example, if you would like to add another
ingredient to the ingredients already on the scale.
1. Press ON/ZERO to set the scale back to "0".
If the weight on the weighing surface is 250 g or more, "TARE" is displayed
(tare function). Below 250 g, the "zero function" is activated and the scale is
simply reset to zero.
2. Add the new item or substance.
The display shows the added item weight.
"TARE" is only displayed if 250 g or more is added at once. If the total
weight exceeds 250 g after being weighed twice, "TARE" does not appear
on the display. Example: There is 100 g on the weighing surface. Press ON/
ZERO and add 160 g: "TARE" will not appear on the display.
3. Repeat the process whenever you would like to add more ingredients. The process
can be repeated as often as needed until the capacity limit (5 kg) is reached.
