Maintenance Tips
-
Clean the weighing surface daily: Wipe the platform with a damp cloth and mild, food‑safe cleaner to remove flour, dough residue, and prevent buildup.
-
Prevent overload: Do not exceed the 16 lb capacity — overloading can damage the internal load‑cell and affect accuracy.
-
Store in a dry environment: Moisture and humidity can affect internal components or cause corrosion; keep the scale dry when not in use.
-
Check for trapped debris: Regularly inspect under the platform and around buttons or feet for trapped dough or flour, which can interfere with performance.
-
Calibrate regularly: Use a known reference weight periodically to verify accuracy, especially after heavy use or if the scale has been moved.
-
Handle with care: Avoid abrupt impacts or drops — even small shocks can damage internal sensors or skew measurements.
