Setup
- Unpacking: Carefully remove the scale from its packaging. Inspect for any damage.
- Battery Installation: The scale operates on one 3-volt lithium battery. Locate the battery compartment on the underside of the scale. Open the compartment, insert the battery according to the polarity indicators (+/-), and close the cover securely.
- Placement: For accurate readings, place the scale on a hard, flat, and stable surface. Avoid placing it on carpets, rugs, or uneven flooring, as this can affect measurement accuracy.
Operating Instructions
- Initial Activation: The scale is designed for instant-on operation. Simply step directly onto the center of the scale platform. There is no need to tap or press any buttons to activate it.
- Taking a Measurement:
- Step onto the scale with bare feet, standing still and centered on the platform.
- Wait for your weight to appear on the LCD display. The display will stabilize and hold the reading for approximately 5 seconds after you step off, allowing for easy viewing.
- Unit Conversion: The scale can display weight in both pounds (lb) and kilograms (kg). A switch or button for unit conversion is typically located on the underside of the scale. Refer to the markings near the switch to select your preferred unit of measurement.
Maintenance
- Cleaning: Wipe the scale surface with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or immerse the scale in water.
- Storage: Store the scale in a dry place at room temperature. Avoid extreme temperatures or high humidity.
