front of the Scale. The indicator lights on

either side of the Weight Window display

information about the Scale’s settings.

Turning on the Scale

Turn the Power Switch (11) to its “ON” position.

The Scale will do a self-check, during which

you can determine whether the Weight Window

and Zero functions are working normally.

Reset Weight to Zero

1.

The “ZERO” Indicator Light is located at the

bottom/left of the Weight Window (See Figure

B). Once the Scale is turned on, it will illuminate

to indicate the Scale is at the ZERO position.

2.

If the Weight Window does not display

“0.000” before you weigh an object, and

the zero range is less than 60g, press

the “ZERO” key. Begin weighing when

the Weight Window displays “0.000”.

Change Units of Measure

1.

Press the “UNIT” button to switch between

the measurement unit settings. The Kg

(Kilogram) and LB (Pound) indicator lights

are located to the right of the Weight

Window, indicate which setting is current.

Set Container to Zero before Weighing

The Tare button is used to reset the scale to

zero when an empty container is set on the

scale, and the container is not included in

the weight of the objects to be weighed.

1.

The “TARE” Indicator Light is located at the

top/left of the Weight Window (See Figure B).

Once the Scale is turned on, it will illuminate

to indicate the TARE weight is cleared.

2.

To weigh objects in a container, but not include

the container weight, place an empty container on

the Platform (1) of the Scale. Press the “TARE”

button and wait for the Weight Window to display

“0.000”, indicating the Scale is ready for weighing.

Place the objects into the container, and the Weight

Window will display the weight of the objects.

Turning off the Scale

1.

To turn off the Scale, simply turn the Power

Switch (11) to its “OFF” position.

2.

Always make sure to store the Scale in

a clean, dry, safe location out of reach of

children and other unauthorized persons.

Note: Disconnect charger. Do not store the

scale with anything on top of it.
