4. MAINTENANCE
4.1 Calibration
Periodically verify calibration by placing an accurate weight on the balance and if calibration is required, refer to section 3.7.2.
4.2 Cleaning
If cleaning is required, use a soft cloth dampened with water and a mild detergent. Do not allow liquids to enter the balance. Do not use harsh
chemicals to clean the balance, as the finish may be damaged.
