A.1 CALIBRATION
Standard calibration should be performed prior to using a scale, and after service.
CAUTION:
Be careful not to touch the scale or the table while calibration is in progress,
as it will cause the process to fail.
Preliminary Steps:
1. Be sure the scale is level and stable during the entire calibration process.
2. Allow the scale to warm up for approximately five minutes after stabilizing to room
temperature.
3. To abort calibration, press Exit key or turn the scale off anytime during the calibration
process.
4. Before performing the calibration, be sure to have the appropriate calibration weights as
listed in table A-1(Valor 4000) and table A-2(Valor 2000).
5. Ensure that the LFT PINs lock is set to unlocked positions.
6. Or adjust the GEO setting according to your location (see instruction manual).
