6 Unpacking, setup and start-up
6.1 Site of installation, location of use
The scales are designed in such a way that reliable weighing results are ensured in
normal conditions of use.
The scales will operate accurately and fast if you choose the right location.
Therefore, observe the following rules when choosing the installation site:
Place the scales on a stable and flat surface.
Avoid extreme temperatures and temperature fluctuations that exist e.g. if the
scales are located by a heater or in a place exposed to direct sunlight.
Protect the scales against direct draughts due to open windows and doors.
Avoid shocks during weighing.
Protect the scales against high humidity, vapours and dust.
Do not expose the device to long periods of extreme humidity. Undesired dew
(condensation of air moisture on the appliance) may occur if the cold appli-
ance is placed in a considerably warmer environment. In this case, acclimatize
the device for approx. 2 h at the ambient temperature.
Avoid static charge of the scales and persons to be weighed.
Avoid contact with water.
Major indication deviations (incorrect weighing results) may occur in case of electro-
magnetic fields, static charges or unstable power supply. In such a case, change the
location.
6.2 Unpacking
Carefully remove the complete scales or individual parts thereof from the packaging
and place it in the intended location. If the power unit is used, the power cable may
not pose a tripping hazard.
6.2.1 Scales setup
The weighing pan must be in a perfectly horizontal position.
