 Securethesampletobeweighedinthehookofthescale.Ensurethatthesprung
SafetyLeverreturnstoitsrestingpositionwhichpreventsthesamplefromslipping
outofthehook.
 DonotexceedthemaximumcapacityoftheScale.
 Cleanandprotectyourscaleafteruse.

 Chargingtimeforacompletelydischargedbatteryisapproximately16hours.Afull
batterypackisrecommendedtokeepthescalecontinuouslyoperational.
 Onlyusethechargerassuppliedwiththeunit.
 The scale will automatically power down after 30 minutes of nonusetofurther
protectthebattery.
 To replace the battery, turn the locking screw on the battery cover 90 degrees
