American Weigh Scales (AWS) ONYX - Manual (Page 2)

ONYX Manual
Thank you for purchasing the American Weigh ONYX
Digital Kitchen Scale. Please read all operating instructions
carefully before use. Scales are precision instruments and
should always be handled with proper care. To ensure years
of reliable service, keep these simple tips in mind:
• Do not exceed the scales maximum capacity. Overloading
your scale can permanently damage it!
• Avoid exposure to extreme heat or cold. Scales perform
best at normal room temperature. If temperatures have
changed dramatically, recalibration may be necessary.
• Allow your scale to warm up for 30-60 seconds before
performing calibration (if available).
• Store your scale in a clean, dry location. Dust, dirt, and
moisture can accumulate on the weighing sensors and
electronics causing innacuracy or malfunction.
• Avoid using your scale in close proximity to strong radio
wave emitting devices such as computers, cash registers,
and cordless phones.
• Always weigh on a flat and level surface, free from
vibrations and drafts. The corner of a room is usually the
most stable.
• Gently apply all items to be weighed. Do not drop items
onto the weighing platform.
• Avoid dropping your scale. The warranty does not cover
damage due to rough treatment or overload.
