Zero & Tare Functions

3. Depending on the weight of the item(s), you will see the Zero indicator”O” or the Tare indicator “T” on the display.
4. With the first item(s) still in place, add the next item to the surface of the scale. The display will now show the weight of that item.
5. Press the ZERO ON/OFF button again to reset the display to 0.
6. Repeat steps (4 & 5) until all items have been added.
7. Remove all items from the weighing area to view the combined weight of all items.
   Note: Adhere to the maximum weight capacity of the scale.

Minus Function

If you add multiple items to the scale at one time to get a total weight, you can identify the value of a single item or ingredient by using the Minus Function:

1. Place the item(s) on the weighing area of the scale to take the measurement of the items.
2. Press the ZERO ON/OFF button to reset the display to 0.
3. Remove an item.
4. The display shows the weight of the removed item with the Minus Function Indicator (negative value is shown on the display).
5. Repeat steps as needed.
