serious injury and damage to your property if instructions are not followed.

ment.
When using the balance, following safety precautions should always be fol-
lowed
Use the AC adapter designed by the manufacturer for the balance. Other
adapters may cause damage to the balance.
• Avoid installing the balance in direct sunlight- this may cause poor
performance or malfunctions.
• Do not mix different type of batteries. Replace all the batteries at the
same time.
• If the balance is not to be used for a long period of time, remove all
batteries from the battery compartment to avoid leakage which may
cause damage to the instrument.
• Avoid overloading or dropping material onto the platform as that
could damage the balance.
• Do not spill liquids on the balance as it is not water-resistant. Liquids
may damage the case and if it gets inside the balance it may cause
damage to the electronics.
• Material that has a static electric charge could influence the weigh-
ing. Discharge the static electricity of the samples, if possible. Another
solution to the problem is to wipe both sides of the pan and the top of
the case with an anti-static agent.
