6.2 TARING 
 
•  Zero the scale by pressing [Zero/Enter]. The zero indicator will 
be on. Place a container on the pan and its weight will be 
displayed. 
 
• Press [Tare] to tare the scale. The weight that was displayed is 
stored as the tare value and it is subtracted from the display, 
leaving zero on the display. The "TARE" indicator will be on and 
the “GROSS” indicator will be off. As product is added only the 
weight of the product will be shown. The scale could be tared a 
second time if another type of product was to be added to the first 
one. Again only the weight that is added after taring will be 
displayed. 
 
•  When the container is removed a negative value will be shown. If 
the scale was tared just before removing the container, this value 
is the gross weight of the container plus all products which were 
removed. The “ZERO”- indicator will also be on because the 
platform is back to the same condition it was when [Zero/Enter] 
was last pressed. 
 
6.3  WEIGHING A SAMPLE 
 
To determine the weight of a sample, first tare an empty container if 
used, then place the sample in the container.  The display will show the 
weight and the units of weight currently in use.  
   
 
6.4 PERCENT 
WEIGHING 
 
•  The scale will allow a sample weight to be shown as 100%.  Then 
any other weight placed on the scale will be displayed as a 
percentage of the original sample.  For example is 350g is placed 
on the scale and the [%] key is pressed the display will show 
100.00%. Remove the 350g weight and place a 300g weight on 
the scale. The display will show 85.71% as 300g is 85.71% of 
350g. 
 
NOTE: The scale may jump by large numbers unexpectedly if small weights 
are used to set the 100% level.   For example, if only 23.5g is placed on a scale 
with 0.5g increments and the scale is set to 100%, the display will show 
100.00%, however a small change of weight will cause the display to jump to 
102.13% as one scale division (0.5g) increase to 24.0g will be equivalent to an 
increase of 2.13%.  
 
• Pressing [Func] will return the scale to weighing.
