V.  Scale Operation

1. 

Place the scale on a flat, level surface. 

2. Tap the 

 key to turn the scale on.

3. Once the scale displays zero, you are ready to weigh.
4. Place items to be weighed on the center of the scale 

platform.

5. 

When you are finished weighing, you can turn the scale off 

by holding the 

 key for 2 seconds.

VI. Using the Tare Feature

You can use this scale’s tare feature to subtract the weight of an 

empty container or vessel to weigh only the contents. NOTE: The 

weight of the container will subtract from the available capacity. 

1. Place the empty container or vessel on the weighing 

platform.

2. Press the 

 key once. The display will then reset 

to zero. If the container is removed, its weight will be 
displayed as a negative number.

3. 

You may now fill the container with the quantity to be 

weighed. The display will show just the weight of the 
contents.

4. To return to normal weight display (gross weight), remove 

any items from the weighing platform and press the

 

  

key again to re-zero the scale.
