OBH Nordica Electronic Kitchen Scale
Before use
Before the electronic kitchen scale is taken into use for the first time, please read this instruc-
tion manual thoroughly and keep it for future use.
About scales
There are several types of scales:
1. The traditional mechanical scale that estimates the weight on the basis of spring action
- subsequently the weight can be read from a dial.
2. The digital scale which is in fact also a mechanical scale with the exception that weight
measurements are read from a display.
3. The modern electronic scale which performs weighing by means of an electronic sensor
and converts the weight electronically for display reading. The advantage of the electro-
nic scale over the mechanical or digital scales is first and foremost that it performs far
more accurate weight measurements – and will continue to do so. The mechanical and
digital scales become increasingly inaccurate over time, partly due to worn springs in
these types of scales.
Please note that electronic scales are sensitive to major temperature swings. Inaccuracies
may occur if the scale is cold. The scale consequently functions best at normal room tem-
perature.
Replacement and insertion of batteries
The scale requires 1 type CR2032 lithium battery which must be inserted before the scale
can be taken into use. Allow the scale to adapt to room temperature before use.
To insert batteries remove the battery door on the back of scale. The battery can now be
inserted or replaced by placing it in the battery compartment so that the battery is firmly fixed
– make sure that the battery is placed correctly.
Re-attach battery door. When battery replacement is required, appears in the display.
Weighing
The scale reads ‘0’. Place the scale on a completely plain surface and switch it on by pres-
sing ON/TARE/OFF button lightly. The scale is now ready for use. The scale can weigh up to
a maximum of 5 kg.
When the scale is switched on, the top line in the display reads ‘lb, fl. oz, g, ml’. Use the ON/
TARE/OFF button to switch between g, fl. oz, lb oz, and ml inside the first 2 seconds after the
scale has been switched on.
If g, fl. oz, lb oz, or ml is not selected inside the first 2 seconds, the display will automatically
show readings in the previously selected measurement unit, e.g. ‘lb OZ 0: 0.0’, ml 0’, ‘fl. oz
0.0’, or ‘g 0’.
