2. Setup
- Unpack the Scale: Carefully remove the scale from its packaging.
- Install Batteries: Locate the battery compartment on the underside of the scale. Insert 2 AAA batteries (included), ensuring correct polarity (+/-).
- Placement: Place the scale on a hard, flat, and stable surface. Uneven or soft surfaces (like carpet) can affect accuracy.
- Initial Calibration: For first-time use or if the scale has been moved, gently tap the center of the platform with your foot to activate it. Wait for "0.0" to appear on the display before stepping on.
3. Operating Instructions
- Step On: Once the scale displays "0.0", step onto the platform with bare feet, distributing your weight evenly.
- Read Measurement: Stand still until your weight is displayed and locks on the screen.
- Step Off: Step off the scale. The scale will automatically turn off after a few seconds to conserve battery life.
- Unit Conversion: If your scale supports multiple units (e.g., pounds, kilograms, stones), there is typically a button on the underside of the scale to switch between them. Refer to the label near the button for specific unit options.
4. Maintenance
- Cleaning: The glass platform can be easily cleaned with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals.
- Storage: Store the scale in a dry place at room temperature. Avoid extreme temperatures or high humidity.
- Battery Replacement: Replace batteries when the low battery indicator appears on the display.
- Handle with Care: While durable, the glass platform should be handled with care to prevent damage.
