6. General Functions and Description
(1) Operating Method
■ Press the (ON/OFF Key) on the front panel of the scale. The scale will be
ready for weighing when ZERO lamp is on.
(2) ZERO Function
■ If press the (ZERO Key), the ZERO is displayed after correcting zero range
by itself. The Zero range is corrected within 2% of maximum weight.
If weigh is unstable, the ZERO Key doesn’t work.
(3) Setting Function of Tare Weight
■ Place the tare on hook and push the (TARE Key). Then, the TARE is displayed
and the display turns ZERO state.
■ In order to delete the tare weight, remove the tare or a thing to be weighted on the
hook and press the (TARE Key).
The TARE is off and the scale returns in normal mode.
If weight is unstable, (TARE Key) doesn’t work.
The sum of both a tare weight and a weighing weight cannot be exceeded over the
maximum capacity of the scale.
(4) Zero Calibration Function
■ Under the ZERO state (ZERO lamp is on.), if the weight change is below the half of
the scale graduations, the scale turns automatically Zero.

■ After placing a thing on hook, if the weight change is stable, then a display shows
the message and average weight will appear.
■ The weight of a held thing is displayed.
■ In order to escape from the Auto-Hold function, push the HOLD key under the
ZERO state. Then, after the message will be displayed, the is
off and the scale turns into normal mode.
② Manual-Hold Function
(Only when you press a HOLD key, the HOLD function works.)
