Before Using the Scale

For accurate measurements:

  • Place the scale on a flat, stable surface
  • Avoid vibration or movement
  • Make sure the weighing platform is clean
  • Ensure the battery is charged

Precision scales are very sensitive and small movements can affect the reading.

Selecting Measurement Units

Press the UNIT (M) button to switch between units.

The scale supports several units including:

  • grams (g)
  • kilograms (kg)
  • ounces (oz)
  • grains (gn)
  • carats (ct)
  • milliliters (ml)
  • pounds (lb)

For DIY skincare recipes, grams or milliliters are recommended for the best accuracy.

Using the Tare Function

The TARE / CLEAR function resets the display to zero.

To use it:

  1. Place your container (beaker, bowl, or tray) on the scale
  2. Press TARE
  3. The display will return to 0.00

You can now measure only the ingredient being added.

Counting Function (PCS Mode)

The scale also includes a counting function that estimates the number of identical items.

To use the counting feature:

  1. Press and hold the PCS / P key
  2. The screen will display sample options such as: 25 / 50 / 60 / 75 / 100
  3. Select the sample size using the UNIT button
  4. Place the selected number of identical items on the scale
  5. Confirm by pressing PCS

The scale will then estimate the total number of items placed on the platform.

This feature works best when all items have the same weight.
