Instruccions de funcionament

1. Encendre/apagar

Premeu el botó ON/OFF key to turn the scale on or off. The display will perform a self-test upon startup.

2. Zeroing the Scale

If the display does not show zero when the platform is empty, press the ZERO key. This will reset the display to zero, ensuring accurate measurements for subsequent items.

3. Taring Function

To weigh an item in a container, place the empty container on the platform and press the TARA key. The display will show zero, effectively subtracting the container's weight. You can then add the item to the container, and the scale will display only the net weight of the item.

This scale features a secondary counting function. To use it, place a known quantity of items (e.g., 10 pieces) on the platform, then follow the specific steps outlined in the full product manual (not provided here, but generally involves pressing the UNITS/COUNTING key and entering the sample quantity). Note: The counting feature is not legal for trade.

Manteniment

1. Neteja

The stainless steel platform is removable for easy cleaning. Wipe the platform and the scale's ABS enclosure with a damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or immerse the scale in water. The scale is designed to be water and dust resistant (IP66), meaning it is protected against strong water jets and is dust-tight.

2. Càrrega de la bateria

When the low battery indicator appears on the display, connect the A/C adapter to charge the internal rechargeable battery. It is recommended to fully charge the battery before its first use and periodically thereafter to maintain battery life.
