How long before the scale times out and turns itself off?

I don't know exactly, but Ive had mi scale for a couple of years and I don't recall ever being annoyed because it timed out too soon. I think it is a great little scale, especially the pull-out feature which I use often,, like when I am measuring food on a plate.

Several minutes at least...my old scale was too quick but this one is great.I love this scale!

The manual says Auto Shutoff occurs 6 minutes after no activity. I always shut it off after using so I've never tested that feature.

The first two reviewers are wrong, and MeasuRite is correct: you tare with the on/off button, as with many other digital scales. To actually turn it off, you HOLD the button for 3 seconds.

Just press the power button once firmly but not long enough to turn it off. That will zero the scale.

Sounds like you have a faulty scale...I suggest returning it for replacement. This has never happened with mine.

It stays on until you shut it off. However, it has a sleep mode if not used for a while. All you have to do is touch the scale to wake it up. If not used for awhile (15 minutes or so), and it has not switched to sleep mode, the scale will show .03 (or some other number). We just touch the scale, wait one or two seconds, and then place the next package on it. There may be a setting that will prevent this, but we haven't taken the time to check for it. It doesn't bother us as it is.

The digital numbers stay lit for at least five seconds after stepping off of the scale. I hope this helps.

Yes, it auto shuts down after about 30 secs of inactivity... it's kind of a pain to keep poking the scale when I'm measuring stuff.

It should turn off. Mine displays the weight for a few seconds and then turns off. You may have a defective product. Sorry! I would get in touch with the seller,depending on when you purchased theItem.

The scale calibrates when it turns on. Just turn it off, and then turn it back on again and you should be set. Also, contact Ozeri if you still need the instruction manual.

Yes it does have an auto shut-off feature. I'm not so sure exactly how long before it turns of, but I'dguess at around a minute or so. I really do love this scale, by the way. Sometimes if I'm weighing something that isn't finished yet and I need to get additional ingredients, I just press down on the bowl (or whatever it is containing what I'm weighing) for a second which lengthens the time it will stay on.

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 had that problem with one of our first scales. I called service had to eave a message. They called me back several times but we kept missing each other. In the mean time we stopped storing the scale on its side and the scales stopped displaying the error message. I have not had this probelm with the other 11 we have purchased. I hope that helps. If not call service, they are helpful.

It will shut off after a minute or so... but more importantly than that the dish it comes with will scrub the sides of the opening of the case causing inaccurate readings near is 20 gram limit and must be centered well before measurements can be made. All and all its a good scale and is very accurate. If needed I would buy this on again. Works great for weighing gold flake!

No, when you step off the scale and back on, it should turn on. The phone is only able to receive data from the scale and save it.

What do you mean by shut off? How long the weight is displayed? It comes off seconds after you have taken the item off the scales

Hi, I just checked it as because I never switched it off by hand until now. The gauge comes with auto-power-off after ~5min it switches off automatically.

My only complaint about this scale: it does shut off automatically after 2min without a significant change to the mass on the platform. I prefer no automatic shutoff but if you do prefer it this balance could not be more perfect
