adapter’s data label.
Only connect the AC adapter to a compatible grounded electrical outlet.
Do not position the scale such that it is difficult to disconnect the AC adapter from the
power receptacle.
Make sure that the power cord does not pose a potential obstacle or tripping hazard.
This equipment is intended for indoor use and should only be operated in dry locations.
Operate the equipment only under ambient conditions specified in the user instructions.
Do not operate the equipment in hazardous or unstable environments.
Do not drop loads on the pan.
Only use approved accessories and peripherals.
Disconnect power from the equipment before cleaning or servicing.
Service should only be performed by authorized personnel.

Battery Installation
Install the four “AA” batteries with polarity as shown in the battery compartment.
When the Balance is first installed, and when it is moved to another location, it must be
calibrated to ensure accurate weighing results. Have the appropriate calibration masses
available before beginning calibration. Refer to the Calibration Section for masses and
calibration procedure.

Initial Calibration
When the balance is operated for the first time, a span calibration is recommended to ensure
accurate weighing results. Before performing the calibration, be sure to have the appropriate
calibration weights. Ensure that the Security switch is set to unlocked position.
Press and hold Menu until [mMeNU] (Menu) is displayed. When the button is released, the display
will show [C.A.L]. Press Yes to accept. [SpaN] will then be shown. Press Yes to begin the span
calibration.
[--C--] will be displayed while zero reading is stored. Next, the display shows the calibration
weight value (press No to toggle value). Place the specified calibration mass on the pan. [--C--]
will be displayed while the reading is stored. The display will show [done] if the calibration was
successful. The balance returns to the previous application mode and is ready for use.

Positive Check
Positive check is used to determine when the material added to the balance is within the target
range. In this case the UNDER and OVER limits must be positive values. (The OVER limit must
be greater than the UNDER limit.)
Add material to the balance until it is within the ACCEPT ( ) range.
Negative Check
Negative check is used to determine when the material removed from the balance is within the
target range. In this case the UNDER and OVER limits are both negative values.
(The UNDER limit must be greater than the OVER limit.)
Place the item to be weighed on the balance and press TARE.
Remove a portion of the item until it is within the ACCEPT range.
Zero Check
Zero check is used when comparing subsequent samples to an initial reference sample. In this
case, the UNDER limit must be a negative value and the OVER limit must be a positive value.
Place the reference item on the balance and press TARE. Remove the reference sample and
place the item to be compared on the balance to determine if it is within the ACCEPT range.
Start
If no weight value is held on the display, press Function key to begin. The [rEAdY] (Ready) will
be displayed until a weight is added on the pan.
When the stable value is being held on the display, the Hold icon (H) will blink and the displayed
weight will not change.
Reset
If the pan is empty and a weight value was held on the display, a single short press of the
Function key will clear the held value and show the new weight on the pan.
4. MENU SETTINGS
The User Menu allows the customizing of balance settings.
