Usage Guidelines
• Scales are precision instruments and must be
handled with extreme care.
• Battery technology works best at room temperature.
• Place the scale gently on a hard and at surface and
make sure it is steady before use.
• The maximum capacity of the scale is 11 lb/5 kg,
which is the capacity before using the tare function.
• Do not place overweight items on the scale.
• Store the scale in a position that keeps it free from
any load bearing weight. Storing the scale with
pressure on the load cells can distort the weight
measurements over time.
Care of Your Product
• Do not submerge any part of the scale in water.
• Wipe clean with a damp cloth.
• Store the scale at room temperature between
32 to 104°F/0 to 40°C.
Precautions
• Keep the scale and/or battery away from children.
• Do not clean the scale with abrasive or corrosive
compounds, which may scratch the surface and
corrode the electronic circuits.
• Do not subject the scale to excessive force, shock,
dust, temperature or humidity, which may result in
malfunction, shorter electronic life span, damaged
battery and/or distorted parts.
• Do not tamper with the scale’s internal components.
Doing so will invalidate the warranty and may cause
unnecessary battery damage and/or distorted parts.
• Do not subject the scale to excessive exposure to
direct sunlight.
• The unit is not waterproof — do not immerse it in
any liquid, which will result in faulty measurements.
• To avoid deformation, do not place the unit in
extreme temperatures.
• Always read the users manual thoroughly
before operating.
