Product Care Information Battery Charge The Charging indicator will display when the battery is charging and will turn off when the charger is removed. If the USB cable is not working, the indicator does not appear. *Please note that the Orion ONLY charges on the AC-DC adapter included in the package. It does NOT charge with any other USB-C charger.
* Note: Calibration weights of 100 g, 1000 g, 1500 g, 2000 g, and 3000 g can also be used. For highest accuracy use Acaia calibration weights or F1 or F2 Class calibration weights. Inexpensive lower-class calibration weights have a higher deviation from a true accurate weight.
