Thank you for deciding to purchase this high-quality product from the ADE Company.
You have purchased a set of scales of the highest technical standard and proven quality.
Please read through this operating manual carefully before starting-up the scales for the

1.
Start-up
Inserting the battery:
Open the battery compartment cover on the underside of the scales and insert the
provided batteries (2 x 1.5V AAA). Please be mindful of the correct polarity of the
batteries (+/-).
Safety information:
Please take care not to let any objects fall onto the scales,
otherwise the scales could be damaged.
Only clean the scales with a damp cloth. Do not use any solvents or
abrasive cleaning products. Do not immerse in water. All plastic
parts of the scales should be cleaned immediately after contact with
fat, spices, vinegar and other strongly seasoned and coloured
foodstuffs. Avoid contact with citric acid.

Operation
Activating the scales:
Place the scales on an even and firm surface. The scales make use of highly sensitive
sensor buttons (Sensor Touch). To activate the scales, press the ON/T button located to
the right of the display. The backlight will turn on and “88888” will initially appear on the
display. After the scales have stabilised (Indicator: Stability symbol
▲
), either “0 g” /
“0.000 lb” / “0.00 oz” or “0.000 kg” will appear, depending on the settings. The scales
are now ready for weighing.
Please note: If a weight-value is shown on the display after activation, press the ON/T
button to set the scales to zero.
Units of weight:
By pressing the UNIT button located to the left of the display, you can change the
country-specific unit of weight (g = gram / lb = pound / oz = ounce / kg = kilogram).
Please make sure that the scales are set to the weight-unit relevant to you.
Zeroing (tare) func tion:
By pressing the ON/T button you can set the scales to “0 g” (Indicator: Tare symbol
"
0
). Place, for example, a bowl on the weighing platform, press the ON/T button and
thus set the scales to “0 g” again. This process can be repeated as often as you like until
the total capacity of the scales (5 kg) is reached. After removing the weighed item the total
weight will be displayed as a negative value (Indicator: Minus symbol
–
).
Automatic deactivation of scales:
If the displayed weight does not change within approx. two minutes, the scales
automatically deactivate. In order to conserve battery power, you can deactivate the
scales manually by holding down the ON/T button for approx. 2 seconds.
