FLIPSCALE Fi

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.

This is the Owners Manual and Calibration guide for the Flipscale Interactive The iFlip uses the same
internal program as the Palmscale 5.0. So, for advanced programming information, please view the
