I have a Producx digital scale and I can set the person, age, and heights but cannot change to pounds.

Taylor digital scale, Model # 5721F
Taylor electronic scales are designed to measure your personal weight, as well as your body fat and water weight. Your scale will measure in either pounds or kilograms, indicating your weight to the nearest ounce or gram. You can use the scale as a weight only device or you can take advantage of its bells and whistles by completing the programming process. The scale will store data for up to 10 users. Setup takes only a few minutes.
Set the scale to your choice of kilograms or pounds. The default measurement for the scale is pounds/inches. To change this setting, change the switch on the underside of the scale to kilograms.

Are you using the giant packs of cheap batteries from Amazon or some similar place? Try using a set of high-quality batteries from a trusted source.

For resetting it would be similar to the initial setting process. FOLLOW these steps:

Lift display cover. Push "SET" button at bottom of pad. User "1" and "2" will appear.
User "1" will start blinking. Press the "USER" button to choose user "1" or "2". Once selected, press "SET" button to lock in information.
Both "HEIGHT" and "AGE" will appear on the screen. The "HEIGHT" will start blinking. Press the "UP" or "DOWN" arrows to find the correct height.

After entering height, press the "AGE" button. Use the "UP" and "DOWN" arrows to enter correct age and press "SET".

Both "MALE" and "FEMALE" images will be displayed. Press the "GENDER" button until the correct MALE/FEMALE image blinks and then press "SET". This will lock in the information.
Your correct information including User, Height, Age, and Gender will be displayed. Now you are ready to calculate weight.

Tap your person "USER" number (1 or 2) in center of scale with your toe. Your personal profile will appear. Wait until "000" appears. Stand on scale so bare feet are positioned over silver pad surface. "000" will blink your weight for approximately 3 seconds. "BF" will flash and body fat percentage will appear. The scale will turn off automatically in a few seconds.

Since your problem started with a battery change, I am going to assume that method 1 is most likely going to fix your problem...Good luck!

Hold down the button for the person you want to setup (1 or 2) until the displays shows the height and the number of feet start blinking. Use the up and down arrows to change the numbers and the Set button to move to inches, age and gender.

To change the height/weight/age, hold the user # you want to change it for and the set/save button at the same time for a few seconds.

I am #2, so I hold the 2 button and set/save. Then you can use scroll to change the numbers/options, and set when you have properly set the digit.

First it does height, then age, then gender, then if you want a goal, and then what that goal is.

Q: Why does "st-lb" or "kg" appear when taking a measurement?
A: The unit's "Weight Mode" has been set to measure your weight in units of stone-pounds (st-lb) or kilograms (kg). Tanita's Body Fat Monitors and the UltimateScales can measure weight in three different modes: lb (pounds), kg (kilograms) or st-lb (British stone-pounds). To change the setting, first find out which model you have (it should be written just above or below the display screen of the unit).

I have a WW36DG digital scale and most of the instructions are the same, so far as I can see. When you tap on the scale, 888.888 appears. It is just seting itself. If you step on the scale before it reads 00.0 it wil give you a Err signal. If you stepped on the scale after it read 00.0, and an Err signal appears, either your battery is very low or it is malfunctioning. it does have a 10 year warranty on it. For the person wanting to set the scale, here are the directions. Good luck.
