OPERATING MODES – the Perfect Portions scale
can be in one of the following three operating modes:
NORMAL, PROGRAM, or TOTAL.
NORMAL mode is the standard operating mode in
which you can enter a food code and weigh items.
When you turn on the scale, it starts in this mode.
PROGRAM mode is used to enter user defined, cus-
tom food codes. This mode is entered by pushing the
CUSTOM key for 3 seconds until you hear the scale
beep twice.
TOTAL mode is entered and exited by pressing the
TOTAL key. Note that "Total" will be shown near the
bottom right corner of the display when in this mode.
This mode is useful for tasks such as displaying
cumulated nutritional information over the course of

the 10 different nutritional values and the weight in
grams or pounds and ounces. The food code number
