Whenever possible, please allow the scale to warm up for 30 seconds after first turning the power on so that the scale will function properly and accurately.

When power is turned on, all display segments appear on LCD for a few seconds and finally '0' will appear on the display.

2. Select the weighing unit (kg or lb) by pressing UNIT.
Once this has been selected, the unit will be displayed above the weight value.

3. Start weighing.
(a) Verify that the reading is '0'. If not, press to display '0'.
(b) Place the object to be weighed on the weighing strap.
(c) Lift the object from the ground until hearing beep sound, which indicates that the weight has been locked and displayed. Set the object down, and read the weight.

If using a container for weighing:

• When collapsing handle, do not have your fingers or hand between the handle.
• When lifting the object with the scale, please use the same precautions as any other object.
• Use of the weighing scale does not increase your strength or decrease the weight of the object.
• When securing the strap, please keep your fingers outside the clip.
• Do not leave batteries inside the weighing scale for long periods of time without use.
• All the international airlines have different weight limits and different excess costs. It is always a good idea to check their limits and excess costs before you travel.

When to calibrate

Calibration may be required when it is initially installed, if the mini scale is moved to a substantial distance. This is necessary because the weight of a mass in one location is not necessarily the same in another location. Also, with time and use, mechanical deviations may occur.

1. Press and hold UNIT key then turn on the scale (do not release UNIT key now)
2. Display will show HELLO and then CAL, now release UNIT key, display shows AD value.
3. After stable, press RESET key, display shows CAL and then 25.00.
4. Place a 25kg testing weight, and then press RESET key. After stable, display will show PASS and then 25.00kg.
5. Calibration finished.
