Operating Instructions

1. Initializing the Scale

Before first use or if the scale has been moved, gently tap the center of the scale with your foot. The display will show "0.0" or a similar indication, then turn off. This calibrates the scale for accurate measurement.

2. The invisible LED display will illuminate and show your weight.
3. Remain on the scale until the weight reading stabilizes.
4. The scale will automatically turn off after a few seconds to conserve battery life.

• Storage: Store the scale in a dry place at room temperature. Avoid storing it vertically for extended periods, as this may affect accuracy.
• Battery Replacement: When the display shows a low battery indicator (e.g., "Lo"), replace all four AA batteries simultaneously. Do not mix old and new batteries or different battery types.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your scale, please refer to the following common problems and solutions:

1. Inaccurate or Inconsistent Readings

• Is the scale correctly calibrated? If the scale is moved or lifted before use, the zero setting may be incorrect. This can lead to inaccurate readings, potentially distorting the result by 1-2 kg.
  Tip: Avoid moving the scale before weighing. Wait until the display shows "0" after switching on.
• Is the surface suitable? Uneven surfaces, such as carpets, can distort measurement results and cause weighing errors.
  Tip: Place the scale on a firm, even, and non-slip surface, such as tiles or parquet flooring, to ensure accurate results.
• Are weighing conditions consistent? Body weight can fluctuate by 1-2 kilograms throughout the day.
  Tip: For consistent results, weigh yourself under similar conditions each time (e.g., at the same time, unclothed, on an empty stomach, in the morning after using the restroom).

2. Display Not Working or Showing "Lo"

• Check if the batteries are correctly inserted with the correct polarity.
• Replace all four AA batteries with new ones.

3. Display Shows "Err"

• This usually indicates an overload. The maximum capacity of the scale is 180 kg. Remove weight from the scale.
• Step off the scale, wait for it to turn off, and then step on again.
