The empty battery is indicated on the display by “LO“. Press ON/OFF-key and
replace the battery immediately.
If the balance is not used for a longer time, take out the batteries and store them
separately. Leaking battery liquid could damage the balance.
If there exists an optional rechargeable battery, it has to be connected in the battery
compartment via a separate plug-in socket. Now the mains adapter delivered with
the rechargeable battery must be applied.
5.5 Connection of peripheral devices
Before connecting or disconnecting of additional devices (printer, PC) to the data
interface, always disconnect the balance from the power supply.
With your balance, only use accessories and peripheral devices by KERN, as they
are ideally tuned to your balance.
5.6 Initial Commissioning
In order to obtain exact results with the electronic balances, the balance must have
reached the operating temperature (see warming up time chap. 1. During this
warming up time the balance must be connected to the power supply (mains,
accumulator or battery).
The accuracy of the balance depends on the local acceleration of gravity.
Strictly observe hints in chapter Adjustment.
5.7 Adjustment
As the acceleration value due to gravity is not the same at every location on earth,
each balance must be coordinated - in compliance with the underlying physical
weighing principle - to the existing acceleration due to gravity at its place of location
(only if the balance has not already been adjusted to the location in the factory).
This adjustment process must be carried out for the first commissioning, after each
change of location as well as in case of fluctuating environment temperature. To
receive accurate measuring values it is also recommended to adjust the balance
periodically in weighing operation.
