ZERO AND TARE FUNCTIONS
The zero and tare functions allow you to weigh items consecutively without having to remove the mass already on the plateform. For example, if you are using a bowl, these functions allow you to weigh the content of the bowl without counting the weight of the bowl.
-
A) When sum of all loads on scale ≤ 4% scale’s max capacity (under 200 g), the LCD will show ‘‘0 g’’ each time Z/T is pressed. Icon ‘‘ 0 ’’ will show on left corner of LCD, indicating zero function is active. Max weight capacity is not reduced by tare amount if less than 200 g.
-
B) When total sum of all loads on scale ≥ 4% scale’s max capacity (under 200 g), the LCD will show ‘‘0 g’’ each time Z/T is pressed. Icon ‘‘TARE’’ will show on left corner of LCD, indicating tare function is active. Max weight capacity is reduced by tare amount.
