Caring for the Scale

following in mind when using your scale:
• Your scale works best when operated and stored at normal room temperature. Avoid
lengthy exposure to extreme heat or cold.
• Only operate the scale on a stable, vibration free surface.
• Exposure to dust, dirt, moisture, vibration, and air currents can affect the reliability and
accuracy of your scale.
• Although this scale is designed to be quite durable, gently place items to be weighed
on the platform. Avoid rough treatment, as this may permanently damage the scale
and void your warranty.
• You can permanently damage the scale by placing significantly overweight items on
the scale platform.
• Avoid shaking, dropping, or otherwise shocking the scale. This is a precision
instrument and MUST BE HANDLED WITH EXTREME CARE.
