Setup
1. Battery Installation
The scale requires 3 AAA batteries. These are typically included with your purchase. Locate the battery compartment on the underside of the scale. Open the cover and insert the batteries, ensuring the correct polarity (+/-) as indicated inside the compartment. Close the cover securely.
2. Placement
For accurate readings, place the scale on a hard, flat, and stable surface. Avoid carpets, rugs, or uneven flooring, as these can lead to inaccurate measurements.
3. Unit Selection
On the underside of the scale, near the battery compartment, you will find a unit switch. This allows you to select your preferred unit of measurement: pounds (lb), kilograms (kg), or stones (st).

4. Initial Calibration
The Vitafit scale features auto-calibration. After installing batteries and placing it on a flat surface, the scale will automatically calibrate itself. You may see '0.0' or '0.00' on the display, indicating it is ready for use.
Operating Instructions
1. Taking a Measurement
The scale uses a convenient 'step-on' technology. Simply step onto the center of the scale with bare, dry feet. The scale will automatically turn on and display your weight.

Maintenance
Cleaning
Wipe the scale surface with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Do not use abrasive cleaners or immerse the scale in water. Ensure the scale is completely dry before storage or next use.
