If the display does not light up, open the battery compartment on the underside of the scale and ensure the battery is correctly inserted with the correct polarity.
4.2 Initial Placement
Place the scale on a hard, flat, and stable surface. Avoid placing it on carpets, rugs, or uneven flooring, as this can affect measurement accuracy. For consistent readings, always use the scale in the same location.
