BEFORE THE FIRST USE
This appliance works with 1 lithium battery (3 V, type CR2032, included).
If battery is not pre-installed, remove the lid of the battery housing on
the rear part of the scale. Place the battery, the positive pole facing
outwards, and then put back the lid. You can now use your scale.
PARTS DESCRIPTION
See page 2-3.
WEIGHT UNIT
Your scale allows you to use the metric measurement system (grams)
OR the imperial system (pounds, ounces). Choose the measurement
system at any time by pressing the “Unit” touch button (lb:oz…g),
depending on the measurement system you wish to use. This button is
situated on the glass platform. The scale uses the following sequence:
lb:oz => Oz => ml (for water only) => g => lb:oz …

USE
Put the scale on an even and hard surface, for instance a table or
countertop. Avoid soft surfaces.
Weighing
1. Switch scale on using the “On/Tare” switch situated on the glass
platform. The LCD screen will initialize.
2. The scale will turn on and the LCD display will show “0 g” or “0:0.0
lb:oz.” . Change the weight unit as needed, by pressing the “Unit”
touch button.
3. Put the object you want to weigh on the glass plate. The stabilized
weight is displayed.
4. Remove the object from the platform.
5. The scale turns off automatically after 60 seconds. You can also
switch the scale off anytime by keeping pressing on the “On/Tare”
button for 2 seconds.
6. If scale goes off automatically, press on the “ON/TARE” touch
button to switch on again.
Tare function (auto-zero)
The zero/tare function is extremely useful to calculate the weight of
ingredients that cannot be put directly on the platform. For example,
flour, or liquids, which require a container before weighing.
In order to use this function, place the empty container or object on
the scale, and then press the “On/Tare” touch button near the LCD
display. The scale will switch on and indicate 0g or 0:0.0 lb:oz.

EKS 42428 - 170120
In case that the scale was already switched on, simply press “On/Tare”
with the object or empty container on it, so that the display will show
“0” or “0:0.0”. The “TARE” symbol is displayed.
Add the ingredient to weigh. The weight indicated on the display is only
the weight of the ingredient added inside the container!
Note: When you remove the container from the platform, the LCD
display will show the weight as negative (“ – ” will appear on the left-
hand side). To reset, simply press “On/Tare” again.
OVERLOADING INDICATOR
If the ”EEEE” symbol appears on the LCD screen, it
means that the maximum weight accepted by your
scale is exceeded. Please remove the object from the
platform in order not to damage your scale.

LOW BATTERY INDICATOR
If the “LO” symbol is displayed on the LCD screen, it means that the
battery of your scale is low in voltage (less than 2.5V), and should be
replaced soon. Please dispose of the old batteries in an
environmentally friendly way. An advance warning indicator is also
supplied, when the symbol is displayed (if battery voltage is lower
than 2.6V).
UNSTABLE WEIGHT INDICATOR
If the “unSt” symbol is displayed on the LCD screen, it
means that the weight on the scale is not stabilized, or
that the scale is not placed on a hard, level and flat
surface. Place the scale on a flat stable surface and try
again.
ERROR INDICATION
If the display shows symbols randomly or if the scale doesn’t turn off
automatically, it means that your scale has a problem (wrong
initialization or weighing error).
Remove any object from the scale and wait for it to turn off. Then start
again. If the problem persists, remove the battery for 10 seconds, and
then put it back in place.

If your appliance does not work properly, it is probably because the

batteries in an environmentally friendly way.
