Operating Instructions

1. Power On: Press the ON/OFF button to turn on the scale. The display will show "0.0" or "0 lb 0.0 oz" when ready.
2. Select Units (if applicable): If your scale supports multiple units, press the UNIT button (or similar) to toggle between pounds (lb) and kilograms (kg).
3. Tare Function: If using a blanket or towel, place it on the tray before turning on the scale or after it displays "0.0". Press the TARE button to zero out the weight of the blanket. The display will return to "0.0".
4. Weighing: Gently place the baby or item in the center of the weighing tray. Keep the baby still until the weight stabilizes.
5. Weight Lock-in: The scale features a weight lock-in function. Once the weight stabilizes, it will lock the reading on the display, even if the baby moves slightly.
6. Power Off: The scale has an auto power-off function to conserve battery life. To manually turn it off, press and hold the ON/OFF button.

Care and Maintenance

• Cleaning: Wipe the scale and tray with a soft, damp cloth. A mild soap solution can be used for stubborn stains. Ensure the scale is completely dry before storage or next use. Do not use abrasive cleaners or immerse the unit in water.
• Storage: Store the scale in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
• Battery Replacement: Replace batteries when the low battery indicator appears on the display. Remove batteries if the scale will not be used for an extended period.
