6.2

Unpacking

Carefully remove the balance from its packaging, remove the plastic wrapping and position the balance in its
intended working location.

6.2.1 Installation

Install the balance in such a fashion that the weighing plate is absolutely horizontally.
6.3

Mains supply

Electric power supply is by means of the external mains supply circuit. The printed voltage level must comply
with the local voltage.
Only use original KERN mains supply circuits. The use of other makes is subject to approval by Kern.

6.4 Battery operation FKB

To insert the batteries (6 x 1.5 V) remove the battery compartment cover. Remove it with the help of a
coin.
In the each battery tube insert three batteries in the same polarity sense.
Screw down again the battery cover.
To save the battery, the background illumination can be switched off (see chap. 7.3).
Moreover the AUTO-OFF function can be activated (see chap. 7.2.10).
If the battery voltage drops below a critical value for operational safety, this will be indicated in the display
with the "BATT LOW" information.
6.5

Connecting peripheral equipment

The balance must be disconnected from the mains before connecting or disconnecting additional equipment
(printer, PC) to or from the data interface.
Only use KERN accessories and peripheral equipment with your balance. These have been ideally coordina-
ted to your balance.
6.6

Initial start-up

A warm-up time of 2 hours stabilises the measured values after switching on.
The accuracy of the balance depends on the local acceleration of the fall.
Please be sure to observe the information in the chapter on adjusting.
