Frequently Asked Questions - PB 2228 Orbegozo

How to turn on the Orbegozo PB 2228 scale?

Tap lightly on the lower right corner of the glass platform. Wait a few seconds until the screen displays 0.0 before stepping onto the scale.

What to do if the scale displays 'Err'?

This means you stepped on the scale before it showed 0.0. Step off and repeat the second step: tap the corner to turn on, wait for 0.0, then step on.

How to change the unit of measurement (kg/lb/st)?

The unit switch is located either inside the battery compartment or on the back of the scale. Open the cover or find the switch, then slide or push to toggle between kg, lb, and st.

How to replace the scale battery?

Remove the battery compartment cover on the back. Depending on the model, bend the small black latch (image 1) or use a pointed object to remove the old battery (image 2). Insert a new CR2032 battery respecting polarity.

What does the overload indicator mean?

If the maximum capacity of 200 kg is exceeded, the screen shows 'Err' to indicate overload. Never exceed this limit to avoid damaging the device.

Why does my weight vary between two weighings?

The scale rounds up or down to the nearest 100 g / 0.2 lb. If you get two different weights, your actual weight is between the two displayed numbers. For consistent measurement, always weigh under the same conditions (barefoot, scale on hard floor, same time of day).

How to clean the scale?

Use a damp cloth to clean the glass platform. Never use chemicals or abrasives, and avoid water seeping inside the device.

The scale does not turn on, what should I do?

Check that the battery is properly installed and not depleted. If the problem persists, remove the battery for about 3 seconds and reinsert it to reset the device.

Can the scale be used on carpet?

No, place the scale on a firm, flat surface such as tile or hardwood. Carpets or soft surfaces may give inaccurate measurements.

How to turn off the scale?

No manual off button is needed. The scale turns off automatically about 6 seconds after you step off, or if no weighing is done when '0' is displayed.
