How to turn on the scale?

How to change the scale language?

Press the language selection button (mark 4) several times until the desired language appears on the left side of the screen. The change is only made during first use.

Use the volume adjustment (mark 3). To disable the voice, turn the wheel completely to the right until it audibly clicks.

What is the maximum capacity of the scale?

The maximum capacity is 180 kg (396 lb). Do not exceed this limit to avoid damaging the scale.

What does '0-Ld' display on the screen mean?

The '0-Ld' display indicates an overload: the weight exceeds the maximum capacity of 180 kg. Step off the scale immediately to avoid damage.

What does 'LO' display mean?

The 'LO' display indicates that the batteries are low. Replace the three AAA batteries with new ones respecting the polarity indicated in the compartment.

How to replace the scale batteries?

Open the battery compartment (mark 1), remove the old batteries and insert three new AAA/Micro/LR03 batteries respecting the polarity (+/-). Close the compartment until it clicks.

Why doesn't the scale announce the weight?

Check that the volume is not disabled: turn the volume wheel to the left. Also ensure that the language is correctly set. If the problem persists, check the batteries.

How to clean the scale?

Clean the scale only with a soft cloth and a mild detergent. Avoid any liquid entering the scale, screen, or speaker. Do not use abrasive products.

What to do if 'Err' is displayed?

The 'Err' display indicates a measurement error. Step off the scale, wait a few seconds, then try again while staying still and without interrupting the weighing process. If the error persists, check the batteries or contact customer service.
