5. Operating Instructions

5.1 Power On/Off & Tare

• Power On: The scale features a pressure-sensitive wake-up. Apply approximately 1N pressure or place an object weighing at least 100g on the platform for 2 seconds to turn it on.
• Tare Function: Short press the power/tare key (usually the rightmost button) to zero out the weight of a container.
• Power Off: Long press the power/tare key to turn off the scale.

5.2 Changing Units

Triple-click the Boot key/tare key to cycle through the available units: grams (g), ounces (oz), and milliliters (ml).

5.3 Operating Modes

The Tiny2s offers three distinct modes for various coffee brewing methods. Long press the timing button (usually the leftmost button) to switch between modes.

• ESP (Espresso Auto Timing): Ideal for espresso preparation. In this mode, the scale automatically starts the timer when it detects the first drop of espresso and stops when the cup is removed. This mode simplifies the espresso-making process.
• NOM (Brewing Manual Timing): For manual brewing methods where you prefer to control the timer yourself. The timer can be started and stopped manually.
• A (Brewing Auto Timing): Recommended for intermittent drip or pre-immersion brewing methods. In this mode, the timer and weight will not be locked due to interruptions in brewing, allowing for flexible timing.

5.4 Silent Mode

The scale can be adjusted to silent mode to eliminate beeping sounds during operation. Refer to the detailed instructions in the included manual for specific steps to activate/deactivate silent mode.

6. Maintenance

• Cleaning: Wipe the scale with a soft, damp cloth. Do not immerse the scale in water or use abrasive cleaners. The silicone pad is slightly waterproof and can be rinsed.
• Storage: Store the scale in a dry place away from extreme temperatures. For extended storage, ensure the battery is partially charged.
• Battery Care: Recharge the battery when the low battery indicator appears. Avoid completely draining the battery frequently to prolong its lifespan.

7. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your SearchPean Tiny2s scale, please refer to the following common problems and solutions:

• Scale not turning on: Ensure the battery is charged. Apply sufficient pressure (1N or 100g) for 2 seconds to activate the pressure-sensitive wake-up.
• Inaccurate readings: Ensure the scale is on a flat, stable surface. Avoid placing it near vibrating equipment or in drafty areas. Recalibrate if necessary (refer to the full manual for calibration steps, if available).
• Timer not functioning correctly: Check that you are in the appropriate mode (ESP, NOM, or A) for your brewing method. For ESP mode, ensure the cup is placed and removed correctly to trigger auto-timing.
• Display errors: Try turning the scale off and on again. If the issue persists, contact customer support.

9. User Tips

• For pour-over coffee, consider using 'A' mode if you pause your pouring, as it prevents the timer from locking.
• Always use the silicone pad to protect the scale from heat and spills, especially during hot brewing.
• Keep the charging port dry to ensure longevity and proper function.
