2.2. Unit Conversion

The scale supports two units of measurement: pounds (lb) and kilograms (kg). To switch between units, locate the 'UNIT' button on the underside of the scale. Press this button to toggle between lb and kg as desired.

2.3. Initial Calibration

For accurate readings, it is recommended to clear or calibrate the scale before its first use or if it has been moved. To do this, step on the scale until the display lights up, then step off. Wait for the display to show "0.0" before proceeding with your measurement. This process should be repeated each time you measure your weight to ensure optimal accuracy.
