Introduction
Thank you for choosing a Kilotech Scale. We appreciate your business and hope that you will enjoy using your
scale. Should you require Technical Support, please contact your local dealer from whom you have purchased.
General Precautions
Avoid lengthy exposure to heat or cold
Allow the scale to acclimate to normal room temperature
before use
Allow sufficient warm up time
Turn the scale on and wait for a few minutes to allow the
internal components a chance to stabilize before weighing
Do not leave a load or weight on a scale for a prolonged
period of time.
Might damage load cell
Do not tamper with the scale yourself
This will void the warranty. Contact your local distributor or
Kilotech directly to properly repair your scale
Do not overload beyond the maximum weight limit
Do not pull the plug by its cord when unplugging
Do not use the scale near fire or corrosive gas
Unless the scale is waterproof do not spill water or immerse in
water
Avoid placing the scale near a heater
It could cause a fluctuation to the indicator reading
Always make sure to use a Kilotech approved adapter
Do not drop the scale or apply a sudden shock
Do not drag the scale
Avoid exposing to other electromagnetic devices
These devices emit RF and can cause unstable readings. If
your scale should perform poorly, try moving the scale to a
different room or location
Level the scale or make sure it is on an even surface
A scale used on an uneven surface may provide an unstable
reading
Scale should be used within stated temperature
& humidity limits
