4. Carefully place the included 200g calibration weight onto the smaller weighing platform.
5. Wait for the display to stabilize and show "PASS". This indicates successful calibration.
6. Remove the calibration weight. The scale is now calibrated and ready for use.

Note: If calibration fails or the display shows an error, repeat the steps. Ensure no vibrations or air currents affect the scale during calibration.
