OPERATING NOTES
INTERNAL BATTERY
Do not leave the Indicator or loadbars in or exposed to water. Store the Indicator in a cool dry place.
The Indicator automatically turns off after 15 minutes of no activity, to limit discharge of the internal battery.
The internal battery charger operates from either the recommended Tru-Test power adaptor or a 12 volt vehicle battery. Damage to the Indicator
caused by other charging supplies, including automotive battery chargers, is not covered by the warranty.
The Indicator displays about 10 minutes before flat, if the battery was fully charged within the last 2 weeks.
To maximise battery life, observe the following simple guidelines:
 Preferably recharge the battery overnight.
 Never charge the Indicator in direct sunlight.
 Store the Indicator in a cool dry place.
The internal battery charger ensures maximum life of the battery, while giving the fastest charging rate possible. The battery is protected from
overcharging. Charging a flat battery takes 6 hours at temperatures of 10 °C to 35 °C (50 °F to 95 °F).
You can safely leave the Indicator on charge all the time. The scale can be used while charging. You do not need to charge before storage.
Charging at low or high temperatures could extend the charging time to 12 hours. At extreme temperatures the Indicator will not charge.
Fully charge the Indicator after storage.
