Introduction
This document provides operating instructions for the MAUL scale.
Batteries
The scale comes with two standard AAA batteries. Insert them into the battery compartment on the base plate, observing polarity markings.
Positioning the Scales
Ensure the scales are placed on a horizontal and stable surface.
Weighing (ON)
After switching on with the "ON/OFF/TARE" key, "8888" appears in the display. Wait until zero appears. Then place the weight on the scales and read the weight.
Net Weighing (TARE)
Place an empty container (or the first weight) on the scales and subtract this weight by pressing the "ON/OFF/TARE" key until zero appears. Fill the container (or add the second weight). Only the additional weight will be indicated.
Switch Off (OFF)
Press and hold the "ON/OFF/TARE" key until the display disappears. Automatic switch-off occurs after approximately 2 minutes if no weight change occurs.
Switching Weight Units (g or oz)
The scales can show weight in grams (g) or ounces (oz). With the scales turned on, press the "g/oz" key. Pressing again cycles through the units.
User Calibration
If necessary, the scale can be recalibrated. With the scale off and unloaded, press the "ON/OFF/TARE" key five times consecutively, holding it on the last press. A number appears. Press "ON/OFF/TARE" again. "CAL" appears, followed by the calibration weight size. Place the appropriate calibration weight (e.g., 200g for a 500g scale). "PASS" appears, followed by the normal weight indication. The scale is now recalibrated. Important: Do not expose the scale to shocks or air currents during calibration.
Explanation of Special Symbols
- Switching on: Pressing "ON/OFF/TARE" shows all symbols. Zero indicates readiness.
- Negative Value: Press "ON/OFF/TARE" again.
- Overload: If weight exceeds capacity, "O-Ld" appears.
- Energy Supply: If [low battery] appears, batteries need changing.
