How to use

Place the scale on a flat, stable surface and ensure the non‑slip feet are in contact with the countertop. Install three AA batteries or connect an AC adapter if available. Press the power button and wait for the LCD to stabilise (about 2 seconds). Select the desired unit of measure, place an empty container on the weighing surface and use the tare function to zero the display before adding the item to be weighed. Avoid overloading the pan and allow the display to stabilise between successive measurements.

Recommendations

Use the scale on a level surface, keep it away from drafts and direct heat sources, and clean the weighing surface with a soft, damp cloth. Remove batteries if the scale will be stored for an extended period. Do not exceed the maximum capacity to preserve accuracy and protect overload circuitry.
