Incremental weighing

• Touching the button /ZERO 3 with the product on will change the numerical display 7 from the reading to „0“. The „Tare“ symbol 9 will appear.
• Now add another item to weigh onto the product. The numerical display 7 will show the weight of the newly added item.
• If you remove the item added to the product, the numerical display 7 will again read „0“.
• If you remove all items from the product, the LC display 2 will show a negative value indicated by the minus symbol 10.
• Then briefly touch the button /ZERO 3, and the „Tare“ symbol 9 will disappear
• Important! Be sure never to add more than 5kg to the weighing surface 1 . Overloading the product can damage it.

Mode selection

The product has 3 different modes. One mode is used to determine the weight. The other 2 modes are used to determine the volume of water and milk.

• Holding the button MODE 4 to the entry mode selecting function. The current mode indicators 8, 11, and 12 will be flashing 3 times.
• During the mode selecting function, select the desired mode by touching the button MODE 4. After each time it is touched, the mode indicators 8, 11, and 12 will switch to the next mode listed:
