TARE OPERATION
You may wish to weigh coffee beans or coffee grounds in a
container (not included). In this case, you will need to tare, or
offset, the weight of the container so that only the weight of the
ingredients is displayed.
1.
Choose a container that will safely balance on the platform
without tipping or falling. Do not use a heavy container, as this
might reduce the maximum capacity of the scale.
2.
While the scale is off, place the empty container on the scale
platform. Turn the scale on by pressing the "q|TARE" button.
The display will turn on.
3.
Place the item to be weighed on the center of the weighing
surface. The weight will display. As you add weight, the weight
displayed increases. Press the "q|TARE" button to set the
scale back to "0". The scale is ready for further ingredients.
The weight of the container has been zeroed out.
4.
Add the ingredient to be weighed. The weight of the ingredient
alone will display.
5.
The weight of additional ingredients may be tared out as well.
Press "q|TARE" to zero the weight before adding additional
ingredients to the container.
6.
When weights have been tared out, the display will show a
negative number when the items are removed from the scale.
Press the "q|TARE" button to reset the scale back to zero for a
new measurement.
TIMER OPERATION
This scale also has a timer function which can be used alone or in
conjunction with the weight and tare operations. The timer can time
up to 9 minutes, 59 seconds. The scale will automatically shut off
10 seconds after reaching 9 minutes, 59 seconds.
