INACCURACY / ERROR___________________________________

overload or operating on an unstable surface. Please keep this in mind and maintain and operate your scale
properly. The scale is a precise instrument and must be handled with the utmost care and caution.

from the unit. Press tare to re-Zero the unit.

An adjustable auto shut off feature is provided to conserve battery power. To program the auto-off time please
follow these instructions:
1)
Starting with the scale powered off, press and hold both the ‘ON/OFF’ and ‘PCS’ keys until ‘A.OFF.x’ is
shown, (x=1,2,or 3,) , this means the auto-off time is 1,2 or 3 minutes).
2)
Press ‘PCS’ , the value for ‘x’ will change and flash.
3)
When you have set the desired value for the auto-off time, press ‘TARE’ to save the setting and then press

* DISPLAY DATA HOLD (LOCK) FUNCTION SET
This advanced scale is equipped with a display lock setting to be used when you wish to keep a displayed
value on the display. This works well when counting or reloading. The hold system works by not allowing the
scale to register small weight changes when the hold is switched on.
1) Starting with the scale powered off, press and hold both the ‘ON/OFF’ and ‘UNIT’ keys until ‘Hld.on’ (display
data hold function is on), or ‘Hld.oF’ (display data hold function is off) appears on the display. When the display
data hold function is on, and the changing of the weight on the pan is /-2d, the display data will not
change—it will remain held (locked) for 20 seconds after the displayed weight was stable for 5 seconds;
2) Press ‘UNIT’ to change ‘Hld.on’ to ‘Hld.oF’ or ‘Hld.oF’ to ‘Hld.on’
3) When you have set the desired value for the data lock, press ‘TARE’ to save the setting and then press ‘ON/
OFF’ to exit the lock programming mode
