stabilize. For more information on weighing an item, see Section 3.3.3.
2. Press a rate key to select the mailing or shipping method. Refer to Section 3.3.4
for more information on selecting the desired class of mail.
3. If the method of shipment and/or the weight of the item requires a ZIP Code or

3.3.3 WEIGHING A LETTER OR PACKAGE
Before weighing an item, make sure the scale shows a zero weight indication. If it does
not, remove all items from the platter and press the ZERO SCALE key.
To weigh an item, place it on the center of the weighing platter. Once the weight
stabilizes, the scale’s display also stabilizes. If the item weight exceeds the scale’s weight
capacity, it displays “OVERWT”.

To select a mailing or shipping rate, simply press the appropriate rate key. The available
classes are listed in Section 3.2.1.
