2. Low Battery
When the battery voltage falls below 5.7v, the low battery
annunciator
will be turned on.
The battery must be recharged. Continued use (approximately 15
minutes later), the display will show
in the weight
field. If the battery voltage drops too low for accurate weighing,
the scale will automatically shut off and you will be unable to turn
it back on. When the low battery indicator is displayed, the
operator should plug the power supply into the scale and then
into the proper electrical wall outlet. The scale will begin charging
the battery.
Notice
The battery should be recharged at least every 5 months
regardless if it is used or not.
After a long time storage, e.g. over 3 months, it is desired to cycle
(charge/discharge) the battery 3 times to let it restore to full
capacity.
When replacing the battery, pay much attention to the poles. The
positive (+) terminal must be connected to the red connector and
the negative (-) terminal must be connected to the black
connector. If connected wrongly, the battery will be damaged.
NOTE: The battery cover can be removed by loosening a
single captive screw. This screw remains attached to the cover
which prevents it from falling out of the cover or being dropped
and lost.
