Before transportation take off the pan (move it slightly and lift it up) and the pan base and preserve from any damages. 1. -
Page 11: Testing And Calibration
USER MANUAL ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 10. Testing and calibration To ensure reliable results it is advised to check balance accuracy with an object of precisely known weight before and after each measuring session. To check a balance with EC verification use a weight standard as stated in Technical Data table for specific balance type (or of better accuracy) with valid calibration certificates. - Page 12 USER MANUAL ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Operations sequence: Press MENU to call functions and press 0.0000g MENU → ← to choose calibration "CAL ..".
