Check battery installation. Ensure batteries are inserted with correct polarity and are fully charged. Replace batteries if necessary. Ensure battery contacts are clean and free from corrosion.

This indicates an overload condition. Remove the load immediately to prevent damage to the scale. Do not exceed the 300 kg / 600 lbs capacity.
