  • Page 49: Important Information

    Important information These electronic scales are a precision instrument. Electromagnetic fields can cause major display discrepancies. The scales must then be repositioned away from electromagnetic fields. All sources of environmental interference, such as drafts and vibrations, should be avoided. Sudden changes of temperature should be avoided. The scales must be reset to match changes in temperature.
