2.- Place the scale where there is not any movement  
     or vibration, make sure it is leveled adequately  
     checking that the four leveling bases are supporting the scale 
     over the surface were it has been placed and if the level bubble  
     (under the plate) is centered, to adjust, tighten or loosen the leveling  
     bases until the bubble is in the center of the circle. 
      
3.- Connect the AC/DC power supply (if you use it) 
      to  220 V A.C. outlet. 
 
4.- Turn the scale on after the countdown sequence your 
     scale will display zeroes and will be ready to use. 
 

 

 
 
 
IMPORTANT NOTE:

 If your scale displays "HELP" after you followed the previous steps and 

after the initial countdown, it means that it was handled roughly and/or got hit during the

OPERATIONS DESCRIPTION. 

 

HOW TO WEIGHT A PRODUCT

 

   At the end of this countdown sequence, zeroes will appear in the view finder, indicating that 
the scale is ready to use. 

 

   If not, see section reference to zero. Then place the product to be weighed on the plate and 
you will see the weight in the corresponding indicator.   

 

 

HOW TO ENTER PRICES 
 

   The product price per pound or kilogram is entered pressing the numbers of the keyboard to 
indicate the desired value. This value will appear in the "PRICE" indicator and the total amount 
to pay will be calculated automatically being shown in the "TOTAL" indicator. For example, if the 

product price per pound in the previous examples is $8.20, just press 

  

 

0

 

and the 

following display will appear: 

 

HOW TO CLEAR WRONG PRICES   

 

 

   When a mistaken price is entered, you can clear it in two ways: 

a) 

Manually

: Simply press the clear 

 key and enter the correct price.   

b) 

Automatically

: The price is automatically cleared removing the product from the plate, except 

if it's not enabled the fixed price function. 

 
FIXED PRICE FUNCTION

 

   When it is necessary to constantly be weighing the same kind of product, one does not change 
its price, you can use the "FIXED PRICE" function. It is used to keep the price "FIXED" in the 
"PRICE" indicator avoiding it to be automatically cleared when the weight is removed from the  
scale.  
To fix a price, follow these steps: 
 
 

1.-   Place the product on the plate.   

 

 

 

2.-   Enter the product price per pound or kilogram. 

 

 

 

 

3.-   Press 

P-PACK

After these steps, a small arrow will light up in the upper right corner of the "TOTAL" indicator, 
pointing to the label "P-PACK"

 

(fixed price). As an example, suppose that the product is ham, 

the weight is 4 pounds, and the price is $2.70 per pound after entering the fixed price, the view 
finder will look like this: 

 

 

   To clear the fixed price function, just press the 

 key. 

 

USE OF THE "TARE" 

 

   When you wish to weight a product in a container but you do not want to consider the 
containers weight during the operation, you can use the TARE function. To use this function 
follow this steps:
