well on your way to achieving consistently
outstanding cooking results every time.

bowl or container used.
CLEANING THE SCALE
ADD ’N WEIGH (TARE FEATURE)
This feature allows you to weigh multiple
ingredients in a single container or to weigh
substances, such as liquids, that need to be
confined. TARE means to deduct the weight of a
container from the total weight of an ingredient
and the container in which it is placed.
NOTE: The total weight of all objects on the
scale may exceed the maximum capacity of the
scale (11 lbs or 5 kgs). ‘Err’ will appear on the
L.C.D. digital readout if this occurs.
Wipe with a soft, damp cloth using a small amount
of soap or detergent. Rinse with another soft,
damp cloth. The scale should be thoroughly dried
after washing. The scale should be cleaned
immediately after contact with fats, spices,
vinegar or strongly flavoured/coloured foods.
Avoid contact with acids such as citrus fruit juices.
EXAMPLE: In baking, recipes frequently call for
specific weights of ingredients such as sugar and
butter. To weigh these items using your
Cuisinart® Precision Electronic Scale,
do the following:
