Overview

This document provides the instruction manual for the Well Kitchen Scale, a device designed for weighing food items during meal preparation. The scale is intended exclusively for private domestic use and is not suitable for professional applications or for weighing people or objects exceeding 5 kg (5000 g). Adherence to the instructions ensures proper installation and safe operation of the unit.

Function Description

The Well Kitchen Scale is a precision instrument for measuring the weight of ingredients. It features a stainless steel bowl, a main body, an ON/OFF/TARE button, a display, and a UNIT button for changing weight units. The scale operates on two 1.5V AAA batteries.

To begin weighing, users must first ensure the scale is placed on a stable, even, and dry surface, avoiding soft surfaces like towels or cloths, which could affect accuracy. The scale is turned on by pressing the ON/OFF/TARE button. After a few seconds, the display will show "0," indicating it is ready for use. A circle symbol in the lower left corner of the screen confirms the scale is operational. If the display does not show zero, users should adjust the balance and press ON/OFF/TARE again.

The scale supports multiple units of weight, including grams (g), pounds (lb), ounces (oz), and milliliters (ml). Users can cycle through these units by pressing the UNIT button after the scale has been turned on. The displayed unit symbol will change accordingly.

A key feature of the Well Kitchen Scale is its taring function. This allows users to obtain the net weight of a product by subtracting the weight of its container. To use this feature, after turning the scale on, an empty package or vessel (e.g., a jar) is placed on the scale. The ON/OFF/TARE button is then pressed, and once the display shows "0," the product can be added to the container for an accurate net weight measurement. The scale also includes an automatic reset function, which sets the display to zero regardless of any object placed on it when it is first turned on, which can also be used for taring.

The scale is designed with user safety in mind, emphasizing indoor use only and caution against using it near heat sources or for purposes other than its intended function. It is not a toy and should be kept out of reach of children.

Usage Features

The Well Kitchen Scale is straightforward to operate. Battery installation involves removing the cover from the battery compartment, inserting two new AAA 1.5V batteries according to the polarity markings, and then replacing the cover. It is crucial to use new batteries and dispose of spent ones in a dedicated recycling bin, not with domestic waste. The manual explicitly warns against recharging single-use batteries, short-circuiting battery poles, exposing batteries to heat, disassembling them, or throwing them into flames due to the risk of explosion. Batteries should be removed before prolonged storage to prevent damage from electrolyte leakage. In case of electrolyte exposure, immediate washing of skin and medical attention for eye contact are advised. Swallowing a battery can be fatal, so batteries must be kept away from children and pets.

The scale features an automatic shut-off mechanism that activates after approximately 120 seconds of inactivity, conserving battery life. To manually turn off the scale, users can press and hold the ON/OFF/TARE button for about 3 seconds.

The display provides important indicators for user convenience. "0-ld" appears if the maximum capacity of 5 kg (5000g) is exceeded, indicating an overload. "Lo" signifies low battery power, prompting users to replace the batteries promptly to ensure continued accurate measurements.

Before weighing any food items, it is recommended to wash the stainless steel bowl to maintain hygiene. The scale's design, with its removable bowl, facilitates easy cleaning and preparation for use.

Maintenance Features

Maintaining the Well Kitchen Scale is simple and focuses on ensuring its longevity and accurate performance. Before any cleaning, the batteries must be removed from the device to prevent electrical hazards. The scale should be cleaned using a soft cloth moistened with a solution of water and mild detergent, then wiped dry. It is important to avoid using caustic cleaning agents, as these can damage the device's surfaces or internal components.

Crucially, the scale must be protected from water and other liquids. Users are explicitly warned not to immerse the electric parts of the device in water or other liquids during cleaning or use, nor to hold it under running water. This prevents damage to the electronic components and ensures safe operation.

The manual states that the device does not contain user-serviceable parts, and users should not attempt any repairs themselves. Any repairs should be performed by a qualified professional to maintain the integrity and safety of the scale.

For storage and transportation, the scale should be cleaned as instructed and kept in a dry, well-ventilated location that is inaccessible to children. During transportation, it is essential to protect the device from vibration and shock to prevent damage.

The product complies with applicable European Union directives, indicated by the CE mark. Instructions for the disposal of electric and electronic devices are provided, emphasizing that these items are special waste categories that require proper collection, storage, transport, treatment, and recycling to prevent environmental pollution and harm to health. The packaging material is identified as cardboard, indicating it should be recycled appropriately.
