2. Setup

2.1 Unpacking

Carefully remove the scale from its packaging. Inspect the scale for any visible damage. Retain packaging for future storage or transport if needed.

2.2 Battery Installation

Your Taylor 7335 Digital Scale comes with a long-life lithium battery pre-installed. Before first use, ensure any protective plastic tab is removed from the battery compartment, typically located on the underside of the scale. If the display does not activate, check that the battery is correctly seated.

2.3 Placement

For accurate readings, place the scale on a hard, flat, and stable surface. Avoid placing the scale on carpets, rugs, or uneven flooring, as this can affect measurement accuracy.

3. Operating Instructions

3.1 Taking a Measurement

1. Ensure the scale is on a hard, flat surface.
2. Gently tap the scale with your foot to activate it. The display will show "0.0" or "0.00".
3. Once "0.0" or "0.00" is displayed, step onto the scale with bare feet, standing still and centered on the platform.
4. Your weight will be displayed on the large LCD screen. The reading will flash or hold steady when the measurement is complete.
5. Step off the scale. The display will hold your weight for a few seconds before automatically turning off.

3.2 Unit Conversion (Pounds/Kilograms)

The Taylor 7335 Digital Scale can display weight in both pounds (lb) and kilograms (kg). To switch between units, locate the unit switch button, usually on the underside of the scale near the battery compartment. Press this button to toggle between 'lb' and 'kg' modes.

4. Maintenance

4.1 Cleaning

The scale features an easy-to-clean split mat design. To clean the scale, wipe the surface with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Do not use abrasive cleaners or immerse the scale in water. Ensure the scale is completely dry before storage or next use.

4.2 Battery Replacement

While the included lithium battery is designed for long life, it will eventually require replacement. If the display becomes dim or shows an error message related to low battery, replace the battery with a new, equivalent lithium battery. Refer to the battery compartment for the specific battery type.

4.3 Storage

Store the scale in a cool, dry place away from extreme temperatures and humidity. Avoid placing heavy objects on the scale when not in use.

5. Troubleshooting

• Inaccurate or Inconsistent Readings:
  • Ensure the scale is placed on a hard, flat, and stable surface. Carpets or uneven floors can cause inaccuracies.
  • Step onto the scale gently and stand still. Shifting weight can affect the reading.
  • Perform a re-calibration: Step on the scale, let it display a reading, then step off. Wait for it to turn off, then step on again.
  • Check battery level. A low battery can lead to inconsistent performance.
• Display Shows "Lo" or is Dim:

  This indicates a low battery. Replace the lithium battery with a new one.

• Display Shows "Err" or Overload Indicator:

  This typically means the scale's maximum capacity (350 lb / 160 kg) has been exceeded. Remove weight immediately to prevent damage.

• Scale Does Not Turn On:

  Check if the battery is correctly installed and if any protective tab has been removed. Replace the battery if necessary.
