OPERATION Weighing 1. Make sure that nothing is on the scale platform. 2. Press and hold the Time/Weight key for 3 seconds to change to the Weighing mode. 3. First “---“ will appear on the display, followed by “0.00kg” if the weighing unit switch is set to kg, or “0.0 lb.oz” if it is set to the lb.oz position. 4. Place the baby on the tray. 5. The display will show the baby’s weight. 6. Note that if there is no change in weight for 2 minutes, the scale will return to the Clock mode.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE 1. Pull the tray sideways. Never pull it upwards, as this could damage the scale. 2. Replace the CR2032 memory battery at least once a year in order to ensure that the memory does not lose its data. IMPORTANT! Never remove both the CR2032 memory battery and the 9V operation battery at the same time. This will cause the scale to lose all its data. 3. Remove the 9v battery if the scale is not used for a prolonged period of time. 4.
