The scale features three basic modes of weighing. Press the MODE button to choose between weighing and measuring volume of water and milk.

In these modes, you can change the units of weight and volume between the classic metric system (g > ml) and avoirdupois (lb:oz > fl´oz). Press the UNIT button on the bottom side  of the scale to switch the measuring system.

Press the MODE button repeatedly to change the units of weighing in the following order:
— In the mode of classic metric system g > ml (water) > ml (milk).
— In the mode of the avoirdupois lb:oz > fl‘oz (water) > fl’oz (milk).
