TIPS:
1. If while using the keypad to search for a food and a curser line ( _ ) appears
next to the letter, the scale is prompting for the next letter of the food
name. Press the “DELETE” key to back-up to the first letter if it needs to be
changed.
2. A space can be entered between words by using the “ZERO” key.
3. If you cannot locate a food, refer to data reference page. You may have to
enter the food type first. (i.e. “CHEESE”)
4. If a typed food is not in the data base, (i.e. there is no food that starts with
“PW”) the scale will beep and back up to a cursor; continue to type in a
correct letter.
5. Pressing “CANCEL” will take you back one step (i.e. return to basic
weighing mode rather than food analyzing mode). Continue to press
“CANCEL” until the scale returns to the screen you wish to view.
6. When you need to enter numerical data (such as nutritional values) the
keypad will automatically switch to “NUMBERS ONLY”.
7. Once the scale beeps and the calories are locked in, you need to back out
by hitting “cancel” and start again.
