* Calibration technically means to determine the difference between the balance/ scale readout and the
actual weight on the pan to determine the accuracy.
Adjustment means to bring a balance/ scale into the state of accuracy required for its use.
Therefore, calibration, as used in this manual, actually means adjustment.
