Before weighing it is necessary to check if the scale is unloaded and indicating zero weight in
the desired unit of measure, for example lb for pounds.
If the indicator is not displaying the desired unit of measure, press the UNITS key repeatedly
until it is indicated, e.g. lb for pounds, kg for kilograms, etc.
The indicator features an automatic zero correction meaning that small deviations will be zeroed
automatically. If the indicator does not automatically determine the zero point, please press the
ZERO/OFF key once briefly.
