ECO-5K
Thank you for purchasing the American Weigh ECO-
5K digital kitchen scale. Please read all operating instructions
carefully before use. Scales are precision measuring devices
and should always be handled with proper care. To ensure
years of reliable service, keep these simple tips in mind:
•
Do not exceed the scale’s maximum capacity. This scale
has integrated overload protection, but any overload
protection has its limits.
•
Avoid weighing in extreme heat or cold. Scales perform
best at normal room temperature.
•
This scale has been calibrated at the factory. Only
advanced users should attempt recalibration using the
specified calibration masses.
•
Store your scale in a clean, dry location. Dust, dirt, and
moisture can accumulate on the weighing sensors and
electronics causing inaccuracy or malfunction.
•
Keep the area around and under the scale clean. Loose
debris under the scale can push against the base causing
inaccuracy.
•
Avoid using your scale in close proximity to strong radio
wave emitting devices such as cordless phones.
• Always weigh on a flat and level surface, free from
vibrations and drafts. The corner of a room is usually the
most stable.
•
Gently apply all items to be weighed. Do not drop items
onto the weighing platform. Overload protection does not
protect the sensor from shock loading.
•
Avoid dropping your scale. The warranty does not cover
damage due to rough treatment or overload.
• Check the batteries first if you are having any trouble with
your scale. This simple step can remedy most scale issues.
