
With all models of FZ- i /FZ- i WP/FZ-GD series and the 120/200/300 of the FX- i /FX- i WP/FX-GD
series (including 500 for the FX-
i
series), a breeze break is provided as a standard accessory.
Since an anti-static treatment has been applied to the breeze break components, there are
cases where they may be charged with static electricity for a while after they are unpacked or
when the humidity is low. If the weight value is unstable even when there are no drafts in the
measurement environment or repeatability cannot be obtained properly, try removing the
breeze break from the balance. Or wipe the clear plates using a cloth dampened with water to
resolve the problem by discharging them. As another approach, using the optional AD-1683 DC
static eliminator or applying an anti-static spray is also effective.


The balance has a highly airtight case due to it having dustproof and waterproof performance.
Therefore, there are cases when the values displayed with the balance become unstable due to
minute indoor pressure fluctuations such as when opening or closing the room door. Try
measuring after stabilizing the pressure fluctuations.

If water droplets or powder remain on the diagram for achieving waterproof performance or on
the pan support boss, there may be cases where proper performance cannot be obtained from
the balance. Use the balance after cleaning those.

If the diagram for achieving the waterproof performance is deformed for reasons such as
excessive load being applied, there may be cases where the values displayed on the balance is
unstable until the deformation is fixed.
3.3. After Use

Do not apply excessive shock to the balance or allow it to be dropped.

Do not disassemble the balance.

Do not use organic solvents or chemically treated cloth to clean the balance. When cleaning
other than the breeze break, wipe using a lint free soft cloth dampened with water and a mild
detergent.

An anti-static treatment has been applied to the breeze break components. Wipe them with dry
and a lint free soft cloth. Wiping them using a cloth dampened with water or a mild detergent
repeatedly or washing them using water may cause the anti-static treatment performance to
decrease.

When cleaning the weighing pan, handle it carefully so that your fingers are not injured by the
edges.
3.4. Power Supply

When the AC adapter is connected, the balance is in the standby mode if the standby indicator
is on (refer to “4. DISPLAY SYMBOLS AND KEY OPERATION”). This is a normal state and
does not harm the balance. For accurate weighing, warm up the balance for at least 30 minutes
before use.
