Page 7: Introduction
INTRODUCTION This manual was created to help you install and learn all about the functional possibilities of the purchased indicator. The instrument is suitable for use in various weighing environments. Not only does it have all the normal features of high-precision scales, but it also gives you the possibility to work in specific environments due to the functioning modes contained in the software implemented in the FLASH MEMORY on the internal board. - Page 8 INTRODUCTION Do not install in any area where there is a risk of explosion. The crossed-out wheeled bin on the product means that at the product end of life, it must be taken to separate collection or to the reseller when a new equivalent type of equipment is purchased.
