PLEASE READ AND KEEP
Thank you for choosing this TOWER
kitchen scale. Please read these
instructions carefully before first use to
ensure consistent operation and maintain
the lifespan and accuracy of the kitchen
scale.
OPERATION
Turn the scale upside down and remove
the battery cover. Insert 2 x AAA type
batteries. Ensure the correct polarity
when inserting batteries. For best results,
use alkaline batteries. Replace the battery
cover. Place the kitchen scales on a firm,
even and flat surface and place the bowl
onto the weighing base.
Note: These images are for reference
only. The contents of the box may
differ from the illustrations, but the
functionality is the same.
Press the On/Zero button to switch the
scales on. They will be ready for use
when the LCD screen shows ‘0’, and,
the selected unit of measurement and
working mode indicators are lit up. Long-
press this button when the unit is in
operation to turn it off. Alternatively, the
unit will automatically go into standby
mode after about 30 seconds of inactivity,
and turn itself off after about 2 minutes of
inactivity.
NOTE: To maximise battery life, it is
recommended to turn the scales off
manually before storing or when they are
no longer in use.

Press the ‘Unit’ button to choose between
weight or liquid units. Long-press this
button to switch between metric (g/ml)
and imperial measurements (lb oz / fl oz.)
Press the On/Zero button at any time
to clear the weight of the items on the
weighing base. The weight of the items
on the LCD display will be cleared and
the ‘O’ (zero weight) or ‘T’ (Tare) indicators
will light up, depending on the total
weight load of the scales, as follows:
• If the total load represents 4% or less
of the scales’ maximum load (approx.
200g for a 5kg scale) the Zero
function will activate. The displayed
weight will be reduced to 0 and the
weight of the currently loaded items
will not be accounted for, and up to
5kg can be loaded from that point
on. For instance, if 150g are loaded
and the Zero function is activated,
up to a total of 5.150g can be loaded
onto the scales.
• If the total load represents 5% or
more of the scales’ maximum load
(over 200g for a 5kg scale) the Tare
function will activate. The displayed
weight will be reduced to 0 and
the total weight of the items on
the scale will be subtracted from
the maximum weight capacity; the
scales can only be loaded with as
much weight as applicable to add
up to 5kg. For instance, if 250g are
loaded and the Tare function is
activated, only a further 4,850g may
be loaded onto the scales (as 5,000g
– 250g = 4,850g.)

Care And Use Instructions
CAUTION
Replace the battery when ‘Lo’ appears on
the screen.
If ‘Err’ appears on the screen, the items
on the weighing bowl are too heavy.
Remove some of the items from the
weighing base and try weighing the
ingredients again.
MAINTENANCE AND STORAGE
1. Ensure the kitchen scales are placed
on a firm, even and flat surface and
that they are steady before use. DO
NOT use the scales on carpet or
other soft surfaces.
2. The maximum capacity of the scales
is 5kg, which is the weight before
tare.
3. Clean the unit using a soft cloth
dampened with a suitable cleaner.
DO NOT immerse the scales in water.
Do not use abrasive cleaning liquids
or detergents on the unit.
4. Clean all plastic parts immediately
after contact with fats, spices,
vinegars or strongly flavoured or
coloured ingredients, to prevent
staining. Avoid contact with citrus
juices if possible.
5. DO NOT allow water to enter any
part of the unit, as it may damage
the internal components.
6. Keep the scales away from excessive
heat and extreme cold.
7. The kitchen scales are a high
precision measuring device. Handle
them with care. Do not shake, hit or
drop them and try to avoid knocks
and bumps.
8. The kitchen scale is for household
use only and not suitable for
professional use.
9. If the kitchen scale malfunctions,
first check the batteries and replace
them if necessary. If the problem
persists, please contact the seller or
