and does NOT need to be recalibrated by the end user. However, if you wish to
recalibrate your scale we provide these instructions for calibration: Repeat
calibration if the scale ever shows O

not follow the steps exactly. If your scale does not perform accurately, please
try replacing your batteries before you calibrate. You will need a 500gram weight
or set of weights to calibrate this scale. NOTE: if you do not have access to a
500g weight you can purchase one at your local store or in emergency situations
you can use coins or weights (ie 100 US Nickels
