1. Environmental Conditions
a. Place the balance on a stable platform, away from vibration, air
currents, direct sunlight and strong electromagnetic waves.
b. Ensure the balance is level by using the adjustable feet and
bubble level.
c. Operating temperature: 41 °F to 95 °F / 5 °C to 35 °C
Temperature fluctuation
≤ 5 °C / hour.
Humidity 50% to 85% RH.
2. Operation

the temperature is below 60 °F).
3. Calibration
Note! Balances are calibrated before leaving the USA factory.
Do not attempt to calibrate the unit unless you =have a
calibration weight of 1000 g, 2000, or 3000g. (Depending on the

a.
Single range calibration (recommended). Press “CAL” for 3
sec
onds. The display will show “Cal-dA”, then display the
weight to be applied (in grams). Apply the weight, the display
will show CAL, followed by the weight value. The balance may
now be used. If the weight reading is not correct (due to
environmental conditions), repeat the process.
4. Weighing
a. When the black dot at the bottom left of the display has
disappeared, the balance is stable and ready to begin
weighing.
Please always
press the “TARE” key before
