Setup

Battery Installation

1. Locate the battery compartment on the underside of the scale.
2. Open the easy-access battery compartment cover. No screwdriver is needed.
3. Insert 2 Lithium batteries (included), ensuring correct polarity (+/-).
4. Close the battery compartment cover securely.

Placement

Place the scale on a hard, flat, and stable surface to ensure accurate measurements. Avoid placing it on soft or uneven surfaces, which can affect sensor performance. It is recommended to store the unit flat and without anything on top to prevent sensor interference.

Operating Instructions

Power On/Off

• To Power On: Gently tap the 'TARE' button. The LCD screen will illuminate.
• To Power Off: Press and hold the 'TARE' button for a few seconds until the display turns off. The scale also features an automatic shut-off function after 2 minutes of inactivity to conserve battery life.

Unit Conversion

The scale can display measurements in various units. To switch between units:

1. With the scale powered on, press the 'UNIT' button.
2. Each press will cycle through the available units: grams (g), ounces (oz), pounds and ounces (lb/oz), fluid ounces (fl.oz.), and milliliters (ml).

Tare Function

The Tare function allows you to subtract the weight of a container, ensuring you only measure the weight of the ingredients. To use the Tare function:

1. Place an empty container (bowl, plate, etc.) on the scale. The display will show its weight.
2. Press the 'TARE' button. The display will reset to zero.
3. Add your ingredients to the container. The display will now show only the net weight of the ingredients.
4. You can repeat the Tare function multiple times for adding different ingredients to the same container.

Weighing Items

The Ozeri Touch Digital Kitchen Scale provides accurate measurements from 0.05 oz to 12 lbs and 10.8 ounces (1 gram to 5750 grams). For best results:

• Ensure the scale is on a flat, stable surface and powered on.
• If using a container, utilize the Tare function.
• Place the item(s) to be weighed gently in the center of the scale.
• Read the stable weight displayed on the LCD screen.

Maintenance

Cleaning

The Ozeri Touch scale features a tempered glass surface, which is four times stronger than normal glass and very easy to clean. To clean the scale:

• Wipe the surface with a damp cloth.
• Avoid using abrasive cleaners or submerging the scale in water.
• Ensure the scale is completely dry before storage or next use.

Storage

For optimal performance and longevity, store the scale in a dry, cool place. It is recommended to store the unit flat and avoid placing heavy objects on top of it, as this can potentially affect the precision of the sensors over time.

Troubleshooting

• Low Battery Indicator: If the display shows a 'Lo' or battery icon, replace the Lithium batteries.
• Overload Indicator: If the display shows 'EEEE' or 'O-Ld', the scale is overloaded. Remove items immediately to prevent damage. The maximum capacity is 12 lbs 10.8 oz (5750 grams).
• Inaccurate Readings: Ensure the scale is on a flat, stable surface. Recalibrate if necessary (refer to specific calibration instructions if provided in packaging, as this is not a common user function). For very small weights (under 3 grams), digital scales may sometimes show slight inconsistencies; try weighing slightly larger quantities or using a different method if extreme precision is needed for minute amounts.
• Display Not Responding: Check battery installation. If issues persist, try replacing the batteries.
