Tare Operation
You may wish to weigh ingredients in a bowl or other container (not included). In this case, you will need to tare, or offset, the
weight of the bowl so that only the weight of the ingredients is displayed.
1. Choose a container that will safely balance on the platform without tipping or falling. Do not use a heavy container, as this might
reduce the maximum capacity of the scale.
2. While the scale is off, place the empty container on the scale platform. Turn the scale on. The display will turn on and then show
zero. The weight of the container has been zeroed out.
3. Add the ingredient to be weighed. The weight of the ingredient alone will display.
4. The weight of additional ingredients may be tared out as well. For example, if a recipe calls for ½ lb rice and ½ lb beans, place the
rice into the bowl. Once the correct amount of rice is weighed, wave your hand within 3 inches over the “TOUCHLESS TARE” symbol
on the scale platform. The scale beeps and then resets to zero. Add the ½ lb of beans. Both ingredients have been accurately
weighed in the same bowl.
5. When weights have been tared out, the display will show a negative number when the items are removed from the scale. To reset
the scale back to zero for a new measurement, wave your hand within 3 inches over the “TOUCHLESS TARE” symbol on the scale
platform. The scale beeps and then resets to zero.

Precautions
1. Clean exposed parts with a soft, slightly damp cloth. To remove stains, use a mild soap. Never use detergents, excess water,
treated cloths, harsh cleaning agents, or sprays. Avoid contact with acids, such as citrus juices. DO NOT immerse the electronic scale
in water or wash in a dishwasher.
2. Do not tamper with the scale’s internal components. Doing so will invalidate the warranty on this unit and may cause damage.
The scale contains no user-serviceable parts.
3. Although your scale is designed to be maintenance-free, it contains sensitive electronic parts. Avoid rough treatment. Treat it with
care to ensure the best performance.
4. This scale is intended for home/consumer use only. It is not intended for commercial or medical use.
5. This scale is designed to read weights up to 11 lb x 0.1 oz / 5000 g x 1 g / 176 fl.oz x 0.1 fl.oz / 5000 ml x 1 ml. To prevent damage,
do not place more than 11 lb / 5000 g / 176 fl.oz / 5000 ml on it.
6. Do not store scale where you store cleaning chemicals. The vapors from some household products may affect the electronic
components of your scale. Do not store scale on its side.
7. This scale is an extremely sensitive weighing device. In order to prevent run down of the battery, do not store anything on the
scale.
8. Do not dispose of batteries in fire. Batteries may explode or leak. Do not mix old and new batteries. Do not mix alkaline, standard
(carbon-zinc) or rechargeable (ni-cad, ni-mh, etc.) batteries. Remove the batteries if the scale will not be used for a long period of
time.
9. Unstable Warning: Should “unSt” appear on the display, this indicates the scale is unstable. Place the scale on a hard, level surface
during use.
10. Overload Warning: Should “EEEE” appear on the display during a weighing, this indicates that the maximum weighing capacity of
the scale has been exceeded. Remove the weight immediately otherwise permanent damage could occur.
