Battery Status; Battery Installation/Replacement - Detecto icon Owner's Manual

Battery Status

The battery status will be displayed when batteries are installed. A number will be displayed
in the upper right of the screen indicating the level of charge remaining in the batteries. For
example 100 = 100% charge, 75 = 75% charge, etc.
When the batteries are the point they need to be replaced (Alkaline) or recharged (NiCad or
NiMH) and the battery voltage drops too low for accurate weighing, the scale will
automatically shut off and you will be unable to turn it back on.
Using Alkaline Batteries
When the batteries are low enough that the scale turns off, remove the old batteries and
replace with new ones.
Using NiCad or NiMH Batteries
When the batteries are low enough that the scale turns off, remove the discharged
batteries and replace with fully charged ones. Place the discharged batteries in an
external charger to recharge.
