Scale
•Always place the scale on a hard, dry, and flat
surface before measurement in order to ensure

the limit is exceeded.
•Do not immerse the scale in water or any liquid.
If liquid is spilled on the digital display or buttons,
immediately wipe the scale dry with a soft cloth to
avoid internal damage.

Operation
Tips
• For accurate results, always place the scale on a
hard, dry, flat surface, and keep the scale away
from dirt, dust, vibrations, wind, air currents, and
electromagnetic interference.
• When you turn on the scale, choose units, or use
the tare function, always wait for the scale to read
“0.0” before measuring.
Note: The scale will automatically shut off after 2
minutes of inactivity.
General Operation
1. Place the scale on a hard, flat, level surface for
measurement.
2. Press ON/OFF to turn on the scale. Make sure the
display shows “0”. Press UNIT to select your
desired measuring unit.
3. Place your item on the scale.
4. Wait for the reading on the display to stabilize.
Note:
• If you’re using the bowl or another container to
hold the items or liquid you’re measuring, first
place the empty container on the scale. Press
Z / T to tare the container’s weight (see Tare
Function, page 8).
• To reset the scale, remove all weight from the
platform and press Z / T.

Zero / Tare Function
Whenever you measure liquid or other items
inside the included bowl, you can use the tare
function to remove the bowl’s weight from the final
measurement. You can also use other containers in
place of the bowl.

the bowl’s weight.
2. Press Z / T. The display will show “0” again.
[Figure 2.1]
3. Place liquid or items in the bowl. The scale will
measure the liquid or items without including the
weight of the bowl. [Figure 2.2]
4. When you’re done, reset the scale by removing all
weight and pressing Z / T again.

and 30 seconds), set the first number to “1” then
press T-SET, set the second number to “5”,
set the third number to “3”, and set the fourth
number to “0”.

4. When the timer counts down to “00:00”, the
digital scale will sound an alarm for 70 seconds.
Press any button to stop the alarm.

button.
