Important Safety Information
To avoid damage to this scale, please read and follow all instructions and safety guidelines in this manual.
Scale
- Do not exceed the 22 lb / 10 kg weight capacity, as it will damage the scale. An error indicator will appear on the LED display if the limit is exceeded.
- The scale is IPX6 water resistant, which means it can withstand most liquid spills without permanent damage. However, we still recommend wiping the scale dry with a soft cloth after any spills to keep it in optimal condition.
- Handle with care. This scale is not intended for commercial or heavy-duty use.
- Keep the scale in a cool, dry place. Avoid exposure to damp environments or extreme temperatures.
- Household use only.
Battery
When the scale is in use, will flash if the scale is running low on battery. The scale’s display will show “Lo” when the battery needs to be charged immediately. Follow the steps to recharge the battery.
- Insert the USB charging cable into the USB charging socket.
- Plug the USB charging cable into a DC 5V adapter and plug into an outlet. You can also plug the cable into a powered USB outlet.
- When charging, will flash. Once the battery is fully charged, will stop flashing.
Note: The scale can’t be used while charging, so it is recommended to charge the battery when flashes, indicating low battery.
