When scale is turned on is unit same as when it was turned off or does it always default to particular unit? If defaults, what is the default unit?

Hi Chris. I don't remember what the first measuring unit was when I bought it or if I had to change it. I use it on ounces most of the time and it turns back on to the last unit you used. It is very easy to switch between units, just the push of the button.

It saves the last units you put it in. So if you put it in pounds, turned it off, then turned it back on it'd still be in pounds.

Is your scale on a level, hard surface? If you do, you may have a defective scale. I first step on the scale and quickly step off. I wait until the scale turns off, then step on again to see my current weight.

Scale comes with 4 AAA Batteries. Life of batteries would depend on useage and how many family members use the scale. When batteries are low-LO appears on LCD. I just got my scale and have only used several times so far. When stepping on the scale weight will blink 2 times and final weight will be calculated. The screen onlystays lit for a 2-5 seconds and automatically turns off. Hopefully the batterieswill last for sometime. Hope this answers your question(s)

Using the AC adapter has nothing to do with the Auto Off function. You need to turn the Auto Off function off. With the scale off, hold down the MODE button and press the power button (momentarily) to turn the scale on. The display will show A_ON. Press the MODE button once and the display should show A_OFF. A_OFF means the auto off function is off. Power the scale off then back on and you are good to go.

Yes, this is referred to as the "tare" function on a scale, and you'll notice in the picture for this scale one of the buttons has a "T" on it which stands for tare. Just set the container on there (the cover for this scale works well for small amounts of measuring) then hit the "T" button on the right and you'll see the measurement reset to zero. Once you do this you have zeroed the scale out and can measure whatever you want without having to subtract. No need to power it on with the container already on as the tare function makes this method obsolete.

If no activity is occurring, the scale stays on for 1 minute. Pressing the mode button if not actively weighing will reset the off timer and stay on for another minute.As long as weighing is occurring, i.e., as long as the display is changing, the unit will stay on. It only cycles off if no change in the display occurs after 1 minute.

The display part of the scale is not mounted to the scale itself. It's tethered so to speak.It can be unplugged from the scale if needed.

Items can be weighed to ounces and tenths of ounces...just set on firm table and good to go! You'll love this scale, it automatically turns off...so weigh a puppy, and continue with puppy care, do not have to be bothered with turning unit off, and it just is a press of a button to turn on.

It should turn off. Mine displays my weight after I step on the scale and turns off a few seconds after I step off the scale.

According to the User guide provided with the scale, it turns off after 3 minutes of inactivity.Peter

No it does not. As soon as you remove the box or whatever you're weighing the scale resets back to 0.

tap the scale lightly until it reads 0. let the scale turn off. that should recalibrated it

Debra, you can set it for either. The best part is you can switch it while you are weighing something. It's a great scale and real easy to use especially with large plates or containers that usually cover up the scale reading

There is a one minute idle delay before the scale turns off. In this case, you would have 60 seconds after the tare, but it also resets the timer if the weight changes, so if you're measuring the yield of a pour over - it shouldn't turn off provided the weight is changing.

The scale calibrates when it turns on. Just turn it off, and then turn it back on again and you should be set. Also, contact Ozeri if you still need the instruction manual.

I answered this incorrectly before. It seems when the scale is moved it does need to be re-calibrated so to speak. It won't be accurate at first weigh, but get on it again and it will weigh correctly.

Calibrate, meaning to get it back to 0? I put the item I want to hold the food such as a paper plate or a bowl/cup on the scale, push the "tare" button and it will reset to zero. Then I add the item/food I want to measure the weight of.
