3. Impostazione
- Disimballaggio: Carefully remove the scale and all components from the packaging. Retain packaging for future storage or transport.
- Posizionamento: Place the scale on a firm, flat, and stable surface to ensure accurate readings. Avoid placing it on soft or uneven surfaces.
- Attach Weighing Bowl: Position the removable weighing bowl securely onto the scale's platform.

4. Istruzioni per l'uso
Pesare gli ingredienti:
- Ensure the scale is placed on a stable surface and the weighing bowl is attached.
- Adjust the zero adjustment knob so the needle points to '0' on the dial.
- Carefully place the item(s) to be weighed into the weighing bowl.
- Read the weight indicated by the needle on the analog dial. The dial typically shows measurements in both grams/kilograms and pounds/ounces.
Using the Tare Function (Zero Adjustment):
The tare function allows you to weigh multiple ingredients in the same bowl without emptying it, or to account for the weight of a container.
- Place your first ingredient or an empty container into the weighing bowl.
- Note its weight, or if you wish to add more ingredients, turn the zero adjustment knob until the needle returns to '0'.
- Add the next ingredient. The scale will now display the weight of only the newly added ingredient.
- Ripetere se necessario.
