Precautions for the weighing operation
Press the RE-ZERO key each time, before placing a sample on the weighing pan, to
prevent possible errors.
Place a sample in the center of the weighing pan gently.
Temperature changes during measurement may cause weighing error.
Shorten the operation time as much as possible. ( Opening and closing door, putting and
removing sample)
Use a pair of tweezers to avoid a temperature change due to having your hand in the
weighing chamber.
Material with an electrostatic charge or that is magnetic may cause a weighing error.
Do not press keys with a sharp instrument (such as a pencil or ball point pen).
Do not drop things on the pan, or place a weight on the pan that is beyond the weighing
range of the balance.
Calibrate your balance periodically to maintain weighing accuracy. Refer to section "8.
