1.4Battery
1. when you use the internal battery first timeyou should charge the battery
10-12 hours, to prevent low voltage resulted from self leakage of battery.
2. when the red battery light is on and flashesit means low battery You
should charge battery in time.
3. Charge time: 10-12 hours And it works 45 hours
4. When the battery light turns green, it means fully charged
5. If you don’t use the battery long time, take out the battery to protect the
indicator from battery leakage
6. In order to keep the battery in best using condition, it is suggest that you
fully discharge the battery every month, the method is that using the
indicator till it is automatically power off.

Within zero range, press “zero”, indicator weighing is cleared. When
Indicator is not stable, zero is unworkable.
3.4TAR E
At the gross weight mode, if the weight is stable, pls. press ”Tare” key , the
indicator will take the loaded weight as tare, and show net weight,
At this time the gross mode will change to net mode. The “ net” and “tare”
light is on, and the net weight is zero

1. In order to ensure indicator display clearly and prolong use life, the
indicator should not be placed directly on sunlight.
2. Load cell and indicator should be well connected , the system should
have a good ground, away from strong electric field, magnetic field.
3. Do not use indicator outside in rainy, better keep it power off.
4. Power off firstly while plug and unplug
