American Weigh BT-500

Thank you for purchasing the American Weigh BT-

500 backlit touchscreen digital scale. Please read 

all operating instructions carefully before use. This 

electronic scale is a precision instrument. With normal 

care and proper treatment, it will provide years of 

reliable service.

Never load the scale with more than the maximum

capacity. Overloading will permanently damage it!

Avoid any exposure to extreme heat or cold. Your 

scale works better when operated at normal room 

temperature. Always allow the scale to acclimatize to 

normal room temperature for at least one hour before 

use. 

Give your scale sufficient warm up time. Usually 

30-60 seconds before calibration to give the internal 

components a chance to stabilize.

Keep your scale in a clean environment. Dust, dirt, 

moisture, vibration, air currents and a close distance to 

other electronic equipment can all cause an adverse 

effect on the reliability and accuracy of your scale. 

Handle with care. Gently apply all items to be weighed 

onto tray top. Although this scale is designed to be 

quite durable, try to avoid rough treatment as this may 

permanently damage the internal sensor. 

Avoid shaking, dropping or otherwise shocking the 

scale. This is a precision instrument and must be 

handled with extreme care. 

Only operate the scale on a stable, vibration free
