MyWeigh Flipscale F2 User Manual

Flipscale F2 Owner's Manual
Low Batteries & bad battery connections are the #1 cause of scale malfunction and inaccuracy! We test all of our scale returns from consumers. Fully 60% of consumer returns are battery related problems. This sounds silly but it's true! A scale will perform slowly, or read inaccurately when it has low batteries. Please replace the batteries often (and only use good quality batteries). We include good quality batteries with all of our scales but batteries can run low in storage. If your scale simply won't turn on while on Battery power, this is often caused by loose battery connections. Battery prongs (terminals) are made of metal. They must be making good contact with your batteries in order for the scale to power on. You can use a paperclip to slightly bend the battery prongs to make them have a better connection. Also some poorly designed batteries have recessed or partially obstructed battery terminals. This may cause your prongs to be touching the plastic housing of the battery instead of the metal battery terminal.
FLIPSCALE TROUBLESHOOTING & OPERATION NOTES:
1) If the Display ever becomes locked showing "Out2", please recalibrate the scale as outlined in the manual
2) If the Display ever becomes locked on LLLLL, or EEEEE, this indicates that the scale was shocked, dropped or otherwise damaged and the delicate weighing sensors have been damaged. You can try recalibrating the scale (If the sensor has not been hurt too badly it will work again after recalibration). Otherwise you will have to follow the warranty instructions that came with your scale.
3) If the display becomes locked on 8888, this often indicates low batteries. However sometimes it also may indicate a serious zero mark error. This means when you turn the scale on, it can't determine what zero is (a slight zero mark error will cause situation #2 above) Thus, if new batteries do not fix this error the scale will have to be sent to us for replacement under our warranty program.
4) If the display shows UNST, this means the scale is not stable. Please try operating the scale on a more stable surface and be sure nothing is on the tray or stuck under the tray when you turn it on. If this situation persists, it may be an indication of fatal load cell damage. Try calibrating the scale - if this does not work please follow the warranty instructions.
5) If the display appears “fuzzy” or unclear, try viewing the display from a different angle. We set the
LCD display for maximum viewability, but from odd angles it may appear a bit unclear due to the positioning angle.
Although the Flipscale is designed to be extremely durable, It’s important that you never overload or
drop/shock the scale. Scales are delicate instruments and unlike Cellular phones, scales have delicate sensors that determine how much an item weighs. If you drop or shock your scale, these sensors "feel" the shock and are sometimes destroyed. This happens with all digital scales. We design our scales to be as resistant to shock or drops as possible, however there is no way for us to protect 100% against load cell or sensor damage. A well-treated scale will provide years of reliable and accurate weighing. However an abused scale will only work until it’s sensors are damaged.

MANUAL & OPERATION GUIDE
PLEASE READ COMPLETE INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USE
Thank you for purchasing the Flipscale F2. With normal care and proper treatment it will provide years of reliable service. Please read all operating instructions carefully.
.KEEP THE FOLLOWING POINTS IN MIND:
* If the display becomes locked on Out2 please recalibrate the scale.
* Do not Overload (exceed the capacity) of the scale including the weight of any trays or bowls combined with objects you may be weighing. Overload or Dropping/shocking the scale will damage the sensor and void your warranty.
* Allow sufficient warm up time. Turn the scale On and wait several seconds to give the internal components a chance to stabilize before weighing.
* The cleaner the environment the better. Dust, dirt, moisture, vibration, air currents and proximity to other electronic equipment can all cause an adverse effect on the reliability and accuracy of your scale.
