Volume Measurement
1) Select between the different ingredients (water, milk, oil, sugar or flour) by pressing the [m] button
repeatedly
2) Press [u] to change to the desired unit, if needed
3) Place the ingredient into the cup
4) Place the cup on a flat table to display the reading. Once the reading is shown, you may also hold the cup
in your hand for easy reading
NOTE: The volume measurement is converted from the weight and the pre-set density of the ingredient by
the processor in the cup. There are different types of milk, oil, sugar or flour on the market. Different types,
brands & origins of the same ingredient have different density. For this reason, some variation of the volume
measurement will occur depending on the type of ingredients you are using. The volume reading provided by
the cup can only be used as an approximate value.
The density and type of ingredients being used in the cup are shown below.
Density

The display resolution of “FL OZ” and “CUPS” is 1/8. If finer resolution and higher accuracy is required, please
select mL (or gram) for the measurement and convert back to FL OZ or CUPS if needed.
Tare (set zero) Function
It is easy and convenient to build up and mix different ingredients together all in the same cup. After the first
ingredient is added and measured, you may add another ingredient after performing the tare function as
described below.
-
Place the cup with first ingredient on a flat table
-
Press the [0] button once. The reading will reset to zero and the “TARE” icon will remain on the upper
display
Now you can add your additional ingredient. Only the weight or volume of the last ingredient added is
measured. Continue the above procedure to build up different ingredients for your recipe.
NOTE: The tare function only functions correctly if the cup is placed on a flat surface
Reversing the Tare Function
Right after the tare function has been performed and the display is showing “0” with the “TARE” icon displayed,
you can press the [0] button to resume to the original weight or volume reading just as before the tare function
and the “TARE” icon will disappear.
NOTE: The reverse tare only functions if the cup is placed on a flat surface
IMPORTANT NOTE
: It is easy and convenient to mix different ingredients in the cup. However, when mixing
your ingredients, you should avoid pressing down the bottom of the base where the sensitive weight scale
components are located. Excessive force applied to the base of the cup may permanently damage the scale
inside and result in inaccurate readings.
FAULT MESSAGE DISPLAY
UnSt:
Unstable
The scale is unstable and the unit will turn off automatically. Place the cup on a flat table and turn on the unit
again by pressing the [0] button once.
Err:
Error
The scale is overloaded. The weight or volume in the cup exceeds the maximum display range (refer
“Specification” section).
