Important Safety Information
• Do not exceed the 22 lb / 10 kg weight capacity, as it will damage the scale. An
error indicator will appear on the LED display if the limit is exceeded.
• Do not immerse the scale in water or any liquid. If liquid is spilled on the digital
display or buttons, immediately wipe the scale dry with a soft cloth to avoid
internal damage.
• The scale is IPX6 water resistant, which means it can withstand most liquid
spills without permanent damage. However, we still recommend wiping the
scale dry with a soft cloth after any spills to keep it in optimal condition.
• Handle with care. This scale is not intended for commercial or heavy-duty use.
• Keep the scale in a cool, dry place. Avoid exposure to damp environments or
extreme temperatures.
