Thank you for purchasing an
 
Escali
 
Digital Scale.
   
 
Please read the following operation information to ensure the 
proper function of your new scale. 
 
 
Before use 
Your scale is equipped with one easy to use all feature operating 
button. This button is located on the front of the scale, just below the 
display. With this button, you control all features; On, Off, Tare and 
Weighing Mode (g / kg / lb oz / oz). 
 
How to weigh: 
1) Turn the scale on. All display segments will appear for 
approximately 2 seconds before resetting to zero.  
2) Your scale will keep the last used weighing mode in memory, and 
will return automatically to this mode when you turn the scale on. 
3) Place item slowly on the platform. 
 
How to use the “Tare” feature:
 
This feature allows the display to be reset to zero after you weigh an 
item in the bowl. It shows the weight of additional items as if you were 
to weigh them separately. 
1) Turn the scale on with the bowl on the platform. 
2) Put an item in the bowl. The display will show its weight.  
3) Press the Operating button again. Wait 2 seconds, the weight of 
the bowl with item will be removed and the display will reset to “0.0”.  
4) Slowly add another item to the bowl. The display will show the 
weight of the new item only. 
5) Repeat step 3 and 4 when adding more items to the bowl.
 
 
How to clear the “Tare” feature:
 
1) Remove all items from the platform.   
2) Press the Operating button once. Wait 2 seconds.  
Now the scale is reset to “0.0” and the weight of all items on the 
platform will be displayed. 
 
Additional Information
 
1) Make sure your scale is at room temperature and on a stable 
horizontal surface free of vibration. 
2) This scale is not waterproof.  Do not expose to moisture. 
3) As this scale is a precision instrument, it must be handled with

5) The display value may be affected by electromagnetic 
disturbances such as operating near a radio.  If this occurs, move the 
device that is causing the disturbance and turn the scale off and 
restart.

Changing the Weighing Mode:
 
Your scale can weigh in grams, ounces, Pounds/Ounces or 
Kilograms/grams. The factory default is set to grams. You can simply 
change the weighing mode before you operate the scale.  
1) Turn the scale on. 
2) Immediately press the Operating button once, or multiple times, 
until the desired weighing mode is displayed. 
3) Your scale will keep the last used weighing mode in memory, and 
will return automatically to this mode when you turn the scale on. 
 
Do not place overweight items on the scale 
Weighing items over the maximum weight capacity will cause an 
overload “O-L.d” error to display.  Immediately remove overweight 
items to avoid causing damage to your scale.
