empty mixing bowl in the centre of the
weighing platform, then press the ZERO
button. The weight will display 0g and
the word “TARE” will be displayed on the

To remove the word “TARE” and set the
Kitchen scale back to 0g/0.0oz at any time,
ensure the item is removed from the Kitchen

NOTE
The Kitchen Scale’s maximum
capacity is 5kg/11lbs. Each time an
item is added using the ZERO button,
