5. Preparation and Configuration
• This instrument is equipped with an integrated weighing scale. For optimal results, this instrument should
be placed on a horizontal surface and used in locations where the wind is not strong and the instrument isn’t
subject to vibration.
• Do not hit the instrument during operation and do not leave the instrument upside down.
• Although this instrument performs automatic temperature correction, for optimal measurement, leave this
instrument at ambient temperature for 2 hours or more before use.
• The temperature sensor embedded in the main unit measures the ambient temperature around the measuring
unit and automatically performs temperature correction. If the temperature difference between the main unit
and a sample is ±10 °C or more, a measurement error may be generated and, therefore, the displayed measured
value blinks (warning indication) (see “8. Error Display” on page
22 and 23
).
5-1. Battery Installation
The unit is powered by four 1.5 V batteries (AA,
alkaline). Remove the bottom battery cover, place the
batteries into the compartment, ensuring to correctly
orient the positive (+) and negative (–) terminals. Then
replace the battery cover.
