7.6.1 Battery charging
The rechargeable battery is charged using the supplied power cord.
Before first use, charge the battery for at least 5 hours using the power cord.
The battery symbol
displayed on the screen means that the battery capacity will
soon run down. The device may operate ca. 30 minutes longer and then it will be
switched off automatically. When the scale operates further without charging, a blink-
ing <LO-BAT> symbol will be displayed.
Charge the battery using the provided power supply.
When charging, LED informs of the battery status.
red:
The battery is being charged
green:
The battery is fully charged
7.7 Connecting peripherals
Before you connect or disconnect any extra devices (printer, computer) to/from the
data interface, the scale should always be disconnected from the mains.
Use solely accessories and peripherals supplied by KERN with the scale, being per-
fectly compatible with it.
7.8 First start
To get accurate weighing results using electronic scales, ensure the scales achieves
the appropriate operating temperature (see “Heating time”, chapter 1). During the
heating time, the scale must be connected to the power source (the socket, recharge-
able battery or batteries).
The scale accuracy depends on the local standard gravity.
Always follow the guidelines in the “Adjustment” chapter.
7.9 Adjustment
As the standard gravity value is not the same in every spot on Earth, every display
with the scale plate connected should be adjusted, in line with the weighing rules re-
sulting from the laws of physics, to the standard gravity in the scale location (provided
the scale system has not already been subject to factory adjustment in its location).
Such an adjustment process should be carried out during the first start, following every
location change and also in the case of any ambient temperature fluctuations. To en-
sure achieving accurate measurement date, it is also recommended to carry out regu-
lar display adjustment also in the weighing mode.
