INSTALLATION
UNPACKING
Carefully take the scale out of its package, make it sure its not damaged and all accessories are included.
Accessories:
- Scale
- Power Adaptor
- Stainless steel pan
- Product manual
Keep the packaging material for your future use.
LEVEL ADJUSTING
Place the scale on a table.
Check the water mark. If bubble is not centered, adjust the leveling feet until reach centre. Check the level when you change the location.
CONECT ADAPTOR
- To charge the battery insert the adaptor pin to jack. Adaptor simply plug into the mains power.
- The scale no needs to be turned on.
- The battery should be charged for 4 hours for full capacity.
- On the right side of the display there is an LED to indicate the status of battery charging. When the scale is plugged into the mains power he internal battery will be recharged. If the LED is green, the battery has a full charge. If it is red, the battery is nearly
discharged and if yellow, the battery is being charged. - Do not use any other type of power adaptor than the one supplied with the scale.
- Verify that the AC power socket outlet is properly protected
Note: Please charge the battery before using the scale for the first time.
