Introduction
Thank you for choosing a Kilotech Scale. We appreciate your business and hope that you will enjoy using your
scale. Should you require support, please contact your local dealer from whom you have purchased. Happy
Weighing!
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.
Do not tamper with the scale
yourself.
This will void the warranty. Contact your local distributor to
properly repair your scale.
Do not disassemble the scale yourself. This will void the warranty. Contact your local distributor to
properly repair your scale.
Do not load beyond max cap the
maximum weight limit.
Do not pull the plug by its cord
when unplugging.
Do not use the scale near fire or
corrosive gas.
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.
Always disconnect the device from
the power supply.
Disconnect before installing, servicing, cleaning or
performing maintenance.
Check the power cable regularly for
damage.
If it is damaged, immediately disconnect the device from the
power supply.
