How to obtain nutrition data
Note : The booklet lists 958 foods.
If your food has not been specifically coded,
please find the food that is closest in content
and use its 3 digit number.
1. Weigh the food first. Refer to Page 3.
2. Then search for the corresponding 3 digit
food code from the list at the back of this
booklet.
3. Enter the food code using the numerical keypad.
For example, the code for Sugar Banana is ‘026’ (Banana, lady finger or sugar,
peeled, raw)
4. The scale will instantly and simultaneously display the nutrition values
of the food weighed. It will identify the Calorie, Salt, Protein, Fat,
Carbohydrate, Cholesterol and Fibre content.
5. If a nutrient value exceeds the scale’s display limit, ‘ ----’ will appear on the screen.
Simply reduce the portion of food weighed.
