BATTERY OPERATION
The scales can be operated from the battery if desired. The battery life is approximately 70 hours.
When the battery needs charging the arrow above the low battery symbol under the weight display will turn
on. The battery should be charged as soon as the arrow above the symbol is on. The scale will still operate
for about 10 hours after which it will automatically switch off to protect the battery.
To charge the battery simply plug into the mains power. The scale does not need to be turned on.
The battery should be charged for 12 hours for full capacity.
Just under the TOTAL PRICE display is an LED to indicate the status of battery charging. When the scale is
plugged into the mains power the internal battery will be charged. If the LED is green the battery has a full
charge. If it is Red the battery is nearly discharged and yellow indicates the battery is being charged.
As the battery is used it may fail to hold a full charge. If the battery life becomes unacceptable then contact
your distributor or Adam Equipment.
Note:
new batteries are shipped partially charged. Before you can use your scale, you need to install and
charge the battery, as indicated by the following instructions.
Some batteries perform best after several full charge/discharge cycles.
Battery performance depends on many factors, including your backlight setting and operate.
Never use any charger or battery which is damaged.
Do not short-circuit the battery. Accidental short-circuiting can occur
when a metallic object (coin, clip or pen) causes direct connection of the
+ and - terminals of the battery (metal strips on the battery) for example
when you carry a spare battery in your pocket. Short-circuiting the
terminals may damage the battery or the connecting object.
Do not dispose of batteries in a fire.
Dispose of batteries according to local regulations (e.g. recycling). Do
not dispose as household waste.
Avoid charging under airless conditions.
To maximize your battery’s performance:
• Always use Original batteries and AC adapter. The scale warranty does not cover damage caused from
using non-original batteries and/or battery chargers.
• The rating of AC adapter output is 9V, but normal output range will be 11V~15V
• New batteries or batteries that have been stored for long periods of time may require a longer charge time.
• Maintain the battery at or near room temperature when charging.
• Do not expose batteries to temperatures below -10°C (14°F) or above 45°C (113°F).
• Over extended periods of time, batteries gradually wear down and require longer charging times.
This is normal. If you charge your battery regularly and notice a decrease in operate time or an increase in
charging time, then it is probably time to purchase a new battery.
