5. Operating Instructions

5.1 Basic Weighing

1. Ensure the scale is on and displays "0.000kg". If not, press the TARE/ZERO button to zero the scale.
2. Gently place the infant on the center of the weighing tray.
3. Wait for the weight reading to stabilize on the display.
4. Record the weight.
5. Remove the infant from the tray.

5.2 Hold Function

The Hold function is useful for obtaining an accurate weight reading even if the infant is moving. Once activated, the scale will lock the stable weight value on the display.

1. Place the infant on the weighing tray.
2. Press the HOLD button (if available, or the programmable function key if configured for this).
3. The display will show a stable weight, often indicated by a "HOLD" icon. This value will remain displayed even if the infant moves or is removed.
4. To clear the held value and return to normal weighing, press the HOLD button again or the TARE/ZERO button.

5.3 Differential Weighing (BMIF - Breast Milk Intake Function)

This function allows for the calculation of breast milk intake by measuring the infant's weight before and after feeding.

1. Pre-feeding Weight: Place the infant on the scale before feeding and record their weight.
2. Activate BMIF: Press the dedicated BMIF button or the programmable function key configured for this purpose. The scale will store the pre-feeding weight.
3. Remove the infant for feeding.
4. Post-feeding Weight: After feeding, place the infant back on the scale.
5. The display will show the difference in weight, indicating the amount of milk consumed.
6. To exit BMIF mode, press the BMIF button again or the TARE/ZERO button.

5.4 5-Button Operation

The scale features a 5-button control panel. While specific button labels may vary, common functions include:

• ON/OFF: Powers the scale on or off.
• TARE/ZERO: Zeros the scale or tares the weight of a blanket/diaper.
• HOLD: Activates/deactivates the weight hold function.
• UNIT: Switches between weighing units (e.g., kg, lb, oz), if available.
• FUNCTION (Programmable Key): This button can be programmed for specific functions like BMIF, or other advanced features depending on the scale's configuration. Refer to the scale's advanced settings menu for programming options.
