Setup
Before first use, please follow these steps to set up your scale:
- Unpacking: Carefully remove the scale from its packaging. Inspect for any damage.
- Battery Installation: The scale requires 3 AAA batteries (not included). Locate the battery compartment on the underside of the scale. Insert the batteries, ensuring correct polarity (+/-).
- Placement: Place the scale on a hard, flat, and stable surface. Avoid carpets or uneven flooring, as this can affect accuracy.
- Initial Calibration: After installing batteries and placing the scale, step on it briefly to turn it on, then step off. The scale will display "0.0" and then turn off. This calibrates the scale for its environment.
Operating Instructions
Using your Terralion Talking Bathroom Scale is straightforward:
- Power On: Gently tap the scale with your foot or step directly onto the platform. The scale will automatically turn on.
- Weighing: Stand still on the center of the scale platform with bare feet for best accuracy. The display will show your weight, and the scale will announce it audibly.
- Language Selection: To change the spoken language (English, French, German, Spanish), locate the language selection button on the underside of the scale. Press it repeatedly to cycle through the available languages until you hear your desired language.
- Volume Adjustment: The volume can be adjusted (low, high, mute) using the volume control button, also typically located on the underside of the scale.
- Unit Conversion: To switch between kilograms (kg), pounds (lb), and stones (st), use the unit conversion button, usually found near the battery compartment.
- Automatic Shut-off: The scale will automatically turn off after a few seconds of inactivity to conserve battery life.
