Notice
Certified balances and balances used for legal applications have the EU type approval. The year of the initial verification is
shown next to the CE mark. Such balances are verified in the factory and carry the „M“ mark on the actual balance. The
year of initial verification is shown next to the CE mark. The GEO value of verified balances explains for which location of
use the balance has been verified. This GEO value is shown on the balance itself and on the packing. Further details see
GEO value table.
Hinweise
Für geeichte/eichpflichtige Waagen liegt eine EU Bauartzulassung vor. Das Jahr der ersten Eichung ist neben dem CE
Zeichen aufgeführt. Solche Waagen sind ab Werk geeicht und tragen die Kennzeichnung „M“ auf dem Gerät. Der GEO-
Wert gibt bei vom Hersteller geeichten Waagen an, für welchen Aufstellungsort die Waage geeicht ist. Dieser GEO-Wert
befindet sich auf der Waage sowie der Verpackung. Genaueres ist der GEO-Wert-Tabelle zu entnehmen.
Remarques
Il existe une homologation UE pour les balances étalonnées/soumises à l´obligation d´étalonnage. L’année du premier
étalonnage est indiquée à côté de la marque CE. Ces balances sont vérifiées à la sortie d´usine et portent la marque „M“
sur l’appareil lui-même. Dans le cas des balances étalonnées par le fabricant, la valeur GEO indique le lieu d’utilisation
pour lequel la balance été étalonnée. Cette valeur GEO se trouve sur la balance ainsi que sur l’emballage. Vous trouverez
plus de détails dans le tableau de valeurs GEO.
Notas
Las balanzas verificadas/verificables cuentan con una aprobación de modelo UE. El año de la primera verificación está
indicado al lado del distintivo CE. Estas balanzas están verificadas en fábrica y llevan la designación „M“ sobre el propio
aparato. El valor GEO indica el lugar de ubicación por lo cual la balanza está verificado. El valor se encuentra sobre la
balanza así como sobre el embalaje. Por favor toman demás detalles de la tabla GEO.
Avvertenza
Per le bilance sottoposte/sottoponibili a verifica esiste un’approvazione CE del tipo. L’anno della verifica prima è riportato a
fianco del contrassegno CE. Queste bilance sono sottoposte a verifica in fabbrica e sono marcate con contrassegno ”M“. Il
valore GEO nelle bilance verificate in fabbrica indica il luogo d’impiego per il quale la bilancia è stata verificata. Questo
valore GEO è riportato sulla bilancia e sull’imballo. Ulteriori dettagli si possono ricavare dalla tabella “valori GEO”.

Any claim to warranty is forfeited if faults/damages are caused due to intervention
by unauthorised persons, especially due to not using original KERN spare parts
or operating material.
All wear parts are excluded from warranty.
No warranty is offered for faults caused by the equipment being operated outside
its prescribed protective system. Damages caused due to environmental
influences such as sea water and unsuitable cleaning material are also excluded
from warranty.

FIS-BA-def-0411 67
When installing the equipment or changing equipment settings, always
carry out a test run with the known test weight at cyclic intervals. This avoids
incorrect results and evaluations.
Ensure that only trained personnel operate and take care of the equipment.
Please check that our products are handled appropriately.
Our products are regularly subjected to further development and are governed by
various regulations specific to the country. Illustrations and graphics used in the
operating instructions may differ from the model supplied.
3.3 Safety information
The equipment may only be opened by trained service engineers in compliance
with KERN directives.
Please disconnect the equipment from the mains before opening.
Warranty is forfeited if the equipment is opened.
The FIS weighing system may not be used in hazardous areas.
3.4 Important information
The measured values are stabilised by a short warm-up period lasting a few
minutes after switching on. Apply the items to be weighed carefully. Do not place
a permanent load on the weighing plate. Be sure to avoid knocks and
overloading in excess of the maximum load (max.), as this can cause damage to
the balance.
Switch the balance off for a short period of time following a disturbance in
programme sequence. The weighing process must now be repeated.
Check the balance regularly using external test weights.
Guarantee/warranty are forfeited if the balance is opened and following use
of the balance outside the prescribed directives.
Keep the packaging in case if should be necessary to return the equipment. Only
use the original packaging to return the equipment.
