When choosing a location to set up your new balance, observe the following conditions to optimize ease and speed of use:
•Set up the balance on a stable, rigid and level surface.
•Avoid locations subject to extremes in heat or direct exposure to sunlight.
•Room temperatures above 86°F (30°C) or below 50°F (10°C) could affect balance operation and accuracy.
•Protect the balance from direct exposure to drafts.
•Protect the balance from aggressive chemical vapors.
•Avoid strong magnetic fields present from other devices.
•Avoid locations subject to vibration.
•Avoid exposing the balance to excessive moisture for extended periods.
•For best results, allow the balance to adjust to room temperature before connecting to power source, for at least two hours.
•Line voltage to the balance should be reasonably constant and free from fluctuations.
Pan Assembly
Please observe the following precautions when handling the weighing pans:
•Do not apply manual pressure to the weighing pan at any time.
•Do not bump the pan.
•Do not drop objects onto the pan.
•Do not attempt to clean or vigorously wipe the pan while it is installed on the balance.
•When removing the pan, pull the pan straight up (pulling the pan at an angle could result in mechanical breakage).
To avoid damage to your precision balance during shipping, the pan assembly components were packed separately.

The external electronic box is powered by the balance and Note: the box should always be attached to the balance.
Each balance has its own external electronic box. These Note: boxes are not interchangeable.
Leveling your Balance
It is necessary to level the balance whenever the balance is moved. Do not turn the balance over.
The number of feet varies on each model:
Analytical models: 2 adjustable front feet, one fixed rear foot. Toploading models with round pan: 2 front feet, one rear fixed foot.
Toploading models with square pan: 4 adjustable feet, one in each corner.
To level your balance:
1.Turn all leveling feet counterclockwise until the feet are fully retracted into the base of the balance.
2.Note the location of the bubble in relation to the circle. For maximum weighing accuracy, the bubble should be located inside the black ring.
3.Begin with the foot that is opposite of the location of the bubble and turn clockwise until the bubble is moved into the black ring. If necessary, repeat this step with the other leveling feet until the bubble is positioned in the center of the black ring.
4.Make sure that all feet are touching the countertop and no rocking occurs when the corners of the balance are pressed.
The bubble moves TOWARDS a foot when that foot is turned
Note: CLOCKWISE. The bubble moves AWAY from a foot when that foot is turned COUNTERCLOCKWISE.

Warm-up Time
To deliver accurate results, the balance must warm-up (be attached to AC power) for at least 2 hours (6 hours for PI-225D). Only after this time will the balance have reached the required operating temperature. It is advised to leave the unit plugged in at all times so that all components are warm and the balance is ready to weigh.
Taring the Balance
1.Place a container on the weighing pan. The balance will register the weight of the container.
2.Press the TARE key.
3.The “TARING” on the screen indicates that the balance is waiting for a stable reading before taring.
4.The balance will read 0.0000 grams (or selected units to the designated resolution) after successful taring.
5.When the reading is stable, the Denver Instrument icon appears in the top, left of the display. When unstable, a “U” appears.

Fine-Dynamic Dual-Range
Balances
Three of the Pinnacle Series Balances (P/PI-603D, P/PI-4002D and P/PI-8002D) feature fine-dynamic dual range. These balances allow you to tare along the entire weighing spectrum and measure with the highest readability of the balance. For example on a P-603D you can weigh up to 100 grams with a readability of 0.001 grams. When the reading reaches 100 grams the balance readability changes to 0.01 grams up to a total capacity of 600 grams. However if you put a beaker that weighs 153.02 grams, when you tare you get 0.001 grams readability so you can measure a sample at 15.068 grams.

Calibration
Your balance was calibrated at the factory; however, it is necessary to re-calibrate upon setup and on a regular basis thereafter. The factory recommendation for calibration is once per week using a permissible weight standard or the internal calibration (on PI models). Reasons for more frequent calibration include:
•Moving the balance
•Significant temperature changes
•Removing the balance from AC power
•Procedures to meet ISO/GLP procedures

For the PI-225D calibration should be performed in the range most commonly weighed in. If measurements are taken from 0 to 60 grams, calibrate the 0.1mg range with a 50 gram, Class 1 or better weight. If measurements are taken across the entire weighing spectrum calibrate with a 200 gram, Class 1 or better weight.
Other external calibration weights can be used for calibration. You should always calibrate at the maximum weight typically measured.
External Calibration Procedure
1.Remove all items from the balance.
2.Press TARE.
3.Gently place the weight in the center of the pan.
4.Press the Calibration softkey.
5.The unit will display “CAL External” and the calibration weight.
6.When calibration is complete the reading of the weight will be displayed and the unit will return to measurement mode.
Error messages will be displayed if calibration cannot be Note: completed. See Troubleshooting Guide for more
information.
Internal Calibration Procedure (PI Series only)
1.Remove all items from the balance.
2.Press TARE.
3.Press the Calibration softkey.
4.“CAL Internal” will be displayed during calibrtion.
5.When calibration is complete the unit will return to measurement mode.
