Safety Instructions
1. Do not install the unit in places subject to excessive dust,
high humidity, direct exposure to sunlight or in places subject to
temperatures below 32 F or above 104 F (0 to 40 C).
2. The exterior of the unit should only be cleaned by wiping with a
damp cloth. Do not spray clean surfaces directly nor immerse the
unit in any liquid.
3. Operate and store the unit on a level and stable surface.
4. Avoid overloading the scale with weight exceeding the 10 lb.
capacity. Doing so may result in ruining the calibration of the scale
and ability for accuracy.

Power Requirements
The JQ-210 is powered by either a AC/AC 9V 100mA adapter (included)
or a 9V battery. The AC adapter must be used when updating
data to the scale from a PC. A low battery indicator appears in the LCD
window when battery power runs low. Replace the batteries as soon
as possible or switch to the 9V adapter. Rate information is locked in
memory regardless of power source withdrawal.
The Infra-Red Remote Control operates on two AAA batteries (alkaline
batteries are recommended for best operation). If a response from the
scale using the remote appears stubborn, replace the batteries in the
remote for a consistent response. Be sure the Remote window points
at the front of the Scale unit and is not more than 3 feet apart from the
Scale for best operation.
