2.3 Selección del emplazamiento
Opere la báscula sobre una superficie firme y nivelada. Evite ubicaciones donde
haya cambios rápidos de temperatura, corrientes de aire excesivas, vibraciones,
campos electromagnéticos, calor o luz solar directa.
2.4 Nivelación de la báscula
Ajuste la pata de nivelación* hasta que la burbuja esté centrada en el círculo del
indicador de nivel (ubicado en el panel frontal). Asegúrese de que la báscula esté
nivelada cada vez que cambie su ubicación.
* IMPORTANTE: Para permitir un flujo de aire apropiado y minimizar la
condensación dentro de la báscula, desatornille ligeramente las dos patas traseras
de nivelación y luego nivele la báscula de acuerdo con una operación normal. Sin
embargo, cuando limpie la báscula, las cuatro patas de nivelación deben ser
atornilladas firmemente para evitar que el agua entre en ella.
