I've never gotten the Err message. You might want to remove the batteries, wait a few seconds and reinstall them again. Otherwise call customer service.

Check that the batteries are in correctly - my scale seemed a little different than most battery operated gadgets - the second battery doesn't install opposite direction from the first. If they're ok, try putting in fresh batteries.

It is most unusual to install batteries the way this device is wired. You need a magnifying glass to see how the battery polarity should be aligned. The instruction manual is completely worthless and makes for excellent recycling material. Once the batteries are installed in the proper orientation, both facing in the same direction, it should work properly. It is a very nice scale and correlates accurately with an analog scale I also use.

40 pounds is way too much to be a simple error. If you have any weights for weight lifting at home try checking the scale with them. For it to be a pound/kilogram problem this scale would have to be in pounds and the doctor's and your old scale would have to be in kilograms. If you're able to use weight plates for barbells and they don't match then notify the company. If they do match, then take the scale with you to the doctor's next time and check them side by side.

I don't know. I didn't register any weight on my bathroom digital scale... Less than 1 pound.

Its always best to calibrate to a known weight. I did not have any known weights, so I calibrated it to zero (ie no weight). For my purposes, this was sufficient.

There is nothing in the instructions that you have to, I just used a unopened food package based on the listed weight, but it kept giving me error messages.

I discovered after I had the same issue that I needed to press the scale quickly and let it "set". When you see the zero's on the display, you can then step on the scale and it will calibrate your weight. Hope this helps.

It will say an error code, but I press Ok and continues. If not then I suggest send it back. make sure you have the correct model for your printer. :) Good luck!

To weigh yourself, tap the top of scale with your foot, wait until the display reads 00, and then stand on the scale. Be as still as you can, and in a few seconds your weight will register. If you move too much while you're waiting for the reading, you will get an error message. Get off the scale, wait until the message disappears, and try again. If the batteries are almost dead, you will get an error message as soon as you tap the scale.

I don't have my owners manual handy but I believe it has to do with setting the scale to read in pounds vs Kg. I think it only read 2 places when using Kg? You question dosen't indicate which setting you're using.

I have no idea. Stopped using it, too complicated. Any little move of the food scale, it loses the data inputted.

You have to put the scale on a flat surface. If you put it on carpet it will give a ERR message.

I can't help you. I didn't keep the scale. Maybe the brochure will tell you.

I have the same problem. The only way to get around this that I know of, is to first step on the scale, wait for the reading. Then step off and wait for It to reset, or It says ready. Then step on again and It should be correct. For some reason It is off by 4 or 5 pounds, the first time you use It after auto shutoff. I wonder If the manufacturer knows this ?

I have found that the actual weight does show up, if you have set up the app correctly. I also have lbs gained and lost.
