Important information
These electronic scales are a precision instrument. Electromagnetic fields can cause ma-
jor display discrepancies. The scales must then be repositioned away from electromag-
netic fields. All sources of environmental interference, such as drafts and vibrations,
should be avoided. Sudden changes of temperature should be avoided. The scales must
be reset to match changes in temperature.
The scales are not hermetically sealed, therefore avoid high humidity, steam and dust. Do
not bring liquids into direct contact with the scales, as these can penetrate into the meas-
uring mechanism. Cleaning material should only be dry or barely damp. Do not use sol-
vents as these can damage paintwork or other plastic parts. Remove damaged items im-
mediately from the scales.
The measuring mechanism will be stabilised by allowing the scales to warm up for a few
minutes after switching them on. Place items to be weighed carefully on the scales. Do not
place objects on the weighing platform for any period of time, apart from normal use. Sud-
den shocks or overloading the scales beyond the maximum permitted weight should abso-
lutely be avoided, balance could be damaged.
In case of problems operating the weighing program, switch the scales briefly off and on.
The weighing set-up must then be restarted right from the beginning.
Never operate the scales in areas where there is a danger of explosion, the models in this
series are not protected against explosion.
Check the scales regularly against, known, external test weights.
Opening the scales or failing to use them in accordance with the written instruc-
tions will invalidate the warranty.
Please keep all packaging material for possible return of the scales. Scales must only be
returned in their original packaging.
