CAUTION:
If you hold the MODE button pressed, the scale enters calibration
mode. Even with the scale platform empty, the LCD display will show “2000.0 g”.
However, the scale is factory calibrated and will not need no calibration, when ope-
rating accurately. If you entered calibration mode by mistake, immediately press the
SCALE button to switch off the scale for leaving calibration mode. Otherwise, the
existing correct calibration data could be altered, producing incorrect readings.
DO
NOT attempt to calibrate the scale without a 2kg calibration weight at hand!
Adhere
to the instructions in section ‘Calibration’ before entering calibration mode.
BATTERY OPERATION
CAUTION:
Ensure to insert the batteries in correct orientation, indicated in the
battery compartment. The positive pole must be orientated to the right side.
Batteries are filled with acids, which could damage the appliance. Thus check the
batteries regularly for leakage. Change empty or damaged batteries immediately to
avoid damage to the appliance. Additionally, remove the batteries, if the appliance
will be stored for an extended period of time.
IMPORTANT:
Only the scale can run on batteries. Battery powered vacuuming
(VAC SEAL) and sealing of foils (SEAL) is not possible. However, there is no need to
remove the batteries, when connecting the appliance to your power supply.
2 Batteries (type: AAA Micro, 1.5 V) are required for operating the scale.
Open the lid of the appliance and remove the battery cover. With the positive pole
facing to the right insert 2 batteries into the battery compartment.
Replace the battery cover and close the lid of the appliance. The scale can now be
operated without any external power supply.
PREPARING THE SCALE FOR OPERATION
CAUTION:
Always switch off the scale before screwing the scale platform on or off
and before moving the appliance. Only screw on the scale platform until you feel a
slight resistance. DO NOT tighten scale platform, to avoid damage to the sensor.
The scale cannot be operated without the scale platform.
TIP:
The scale platform may be fixed at the bottom of the appliance. If required, turn
the scale platform counter-clockwise to remove it from the bottom of the appliance.
