Zero & Tare Functions

To measure items as they are added, use the Zero and Tare Functions. If the weight of the items being measured is below 4% of the scale’s capacity (less than 0.2kg/0.4lb), the Zero function is used. If the weight of the items exceeds 4% of the scale’s capacity, the Tare function is used.

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 still in place, add the next item to the scale. The display will now show the weight of that item.

5.Press "ON/OFF ZERO" to view the combined weight of the two items.

6.Press "ON/OFF ZERO" again to reset the display to "0".

7.Repeat these steps (4-6) until all items have been added.
