Troubleshooting

Inaccurate readings

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Ensure the scale is placed on a flat, stable surface before use. Insert the included batteries, paying attention to polarity. Select your desired unit of measurement (grams, ounces, pounds, milliliters, fluid ounces) by pressing the 'Unit' button.

Compatibility: This scale is designed for general kitchen use and is compatible with most common ingredients, both solid and liquid. It operates on standard batteries (e.g., AAA or CR2032, check product packaging for exact type).

Care: Clean the bamboo platform with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid submerging the scale in water or using abrasive cleaners, as this can damage the bamboo and electronic components.
