to complete the entry. If you make a mistake during the entry, press the
CLEAR key to start over.

sage with three dash marks. Use the numeric keys to enter the requested

make a mistake during the entry, press the CLEAR key to start over.
3.3.2 MAILING OR SHIPPING AN ITEM
There are three basic steps to shipping a letter or package. Refer to the next sec-
tion for detailed examples.
1. Weigh the item you wish to mail
Remove all items from the platter, press the ZERO SCALE key and then
place the item on the weighing platter.
2. Select the desired mailing service by using the soft keys.
Use the soft keys to select a class of mail, making additional selections as
necessary. If the method of shipment and/or the weight of the item require a
ZIP Code or Country Code, the scale prompts for a three-digit code. Use the
numeric keys to enter the destination Zip Code or Country Code.
3. If desired, use the soft keys to select a special service (i.e. Insurance,
C.O.D., etc.).
When a value must be entered to determine the special service fee (e.g.
COD, Registered, and Insurance), the scale prompts for a numeric entry. Af-
ter the amount is entered, press the ENTER key to accept the input.

1. List All – This selection lists all countries on the screen in alphabetical order.
Press the SCREEN UP or SCREEN DOWN key to page up or down thru the
list. Press and Hold the SCREEN UP or SCREEN DOWN key to quickly scroll
through the entire list. Press a soft key to select the desired country.
