Thank you for deciding to purchase this high-quality product from the ADE Company.
You have purchased a set of scales of the highest technical standard and proven quality.
Please read through this operating manual carefully before starting-up the scales for the
first time, and keep it in a safe place so that this information is available to you when you
need it.
1. Start-up
Inserting the batteries:
Open the battery compartment cover on the underside of the scales and insert the
provided batteries (2 x 1.5V AA). Please be mindful of the correct polarity of the batteries
(+/-).
Safety information:
Please take care not to let any objects fall onto the scales,
otherwise the scales could be damaged.
Only clean the scales with a damp cloth. Do not use any solvents or
abrasive cleaning products. Do not immerse in water. All plastic
parts of the scales should be cleaned immediately after contact
with fat, spices, vinegar and other strongly seasoned and coloured
foodstuffs. Avoid contact with citric acid.
2. Operation
Activating the scales:
Place the scales on an even and firm surface. The scales are operated using highly
sensitive sensor buttons. To activate the scales, briefly touch the -button to the right of
the display. “HI” will first appear on the display. After the scales have stabilised, “0 g” or
“0: 00 lb: oz” will appear depending on the settings. The scales are now ready for
weighing.
Please note: If, after activating the scales, a weight-value is displayed, touch the TARE
button to set the scales to zero.
Units of weight:
To change the unit of weight (g <->lb: oz) activate the scales by touching the -button.
As soon as “HI” appears on the display, touch the
-button again. The unit of weight
has now been changed. Please make sure that the scales are set to the unit of weight
relevant to you.
Zeroing-(Tare)-func tion:
By touching the TARE button you can set the scales to “0 g”. Place, for example, a bowl
on the weighing platform, press the TARE button and thus set the scales to “0 g” again.
This process can be repeated as often as you like until the total capacity of the scales
(5 kg) is reached. After removing the weighed item the total weight will be displayed as a
negative value.
Automatic / manua l deactivation of the scales:
If the displayed weight does not change within approx. 20 seconds, the scales
automatically deactivate. In order to conserve battery power, you can deactivate the
scales manually by holding down the -button for approx. 2 seconds.
3. Error messages
