The standard scope of delivery contains the following items: ● Balance ● Weighing pan and weighing pan support ● Protective cover for load cell cone (mounted) ● Protective cover (mounted) ● Stackable cover ● Universal AC/DC adapter (country specific) ● Operating instructions printed or on CD-Rom depending on the country. ● Quick Guide (English) depending on the country. ● EC declaration of conformity 4.2   Selecting a location The correct location makes an important contribution to the accuracy of the weighing results of preci­ sion balances. Select a stable, vibration-free position that is as horizontal as possible. The surface must be able to safely carry the weight of a fully loaded balance. Observe ambient conditions see Technical Data (page 54). Avoid the following: ● Vibrations ● Excessive temperature fluctuations ● Direct sunlight ● Powerful drafts (e.g. from fans or air conditioners) 4.3   Leveling the balace The balances have a level indicator and two or four adjustable leveling feet to compensate for slight irregularities in the surface of the weighing bench. The balance is exactly horizontal when the air bubble is in the middle of the level glass. Align the balance horizontally by turning the leveling feet of the balance housing until the air bubble is in the inner circle of the level indicator. Note: The balance should be leveled and adjusted each time it is moved to a new location. Installation and Putting Into Operation 13 4.4   Installing the components 1 2 Remove the protective cover for weighing cone (1). Keep it for later use. Place the following components on the bal­ ance in the specified order: • Pan support (2) • Weighing pan (3) 3 2 1 4.5   Installation of the protective cover Install the protective cover according to the illustration on the right, using a screwdriver. 14 Installation and Putting Into Operation 4.6   Using the stackable cover The stackable cover can be placed on the balance. It protects the balance from dust when it is not used and allows you to stack up a maximal number of 5 balances. 4.7   Power supply 4.7.1   AC operation Your balance is supplied with an country-specific AC/DC adapter. The power supply is suitable for all line voltages in the range: 100 - 240 VAC, 50/60 Hz (for detailed specifications, see section "techni­ cal data"). First, check the local line voltage is in the range 100 - 240 VAC, 50/60 Hz and whether the power plug fits your local power supply connection. If this is not the case, on no account connect the balance or the AC adapter to the power supply, but contact the responsible METTLER TOLEDO dealer. Important: ● Before operating, check all cables for damage. ● Guide the cables so that they cannot become damaged or interfere with the weighing process! ● Take care that the AC adapter cannot come into contact with liquids! ● The power plug must be always accessible. Connect the AC adapter to the connection socket on the back of your balance (see figure) and to the power line. 4.7.2   Battery operation The Balance can also operate with batteries. Under normal operation conditions, the balance works independently of the AC power line for about 8 to 15 hours (using alkaline batteries). Immediately after the AC power supply is interrupted e.g. by withdrawing the power plug or if there is a power fail­ Installation and Putting Into Operation 15 ure, the balance switches automatically to battery operation. Once the AC power supply is restored, the balance reverts automatically to AC operation. Note: It is also possible to use rechargeable batteries. Charging batteries inside the balance is not possible. battery full 2/3 full When the balance is operating on its batteries, the battery symbol in the display lights up. The number of segments that are lit is an indicator of battery condition (3 = fully charged, 0 = discharged). When the batteries are almost completely discharged, the battery symbol flashes. 1/3 full battery empty Inserting / Replacing Batteries The balance must be disconnected from the power supply when carrying out all setup and mounting work. ● Make sure that the balance is off before removing or inserting batteries. ● Never put the balance on the weighing cone without mounted cone protection. The load cell could be damaged. ● Battery Warnings: Read and follow all warnings and instructions supplied by the battery manufacturer. ● Do not mix different types or brands of batteries. Performance of batteries can vary very greatly depending on the manufacturer. ● If you don't operate the balance with batteries for an extended period, it is recom­ mended to remove the batteries from the balance. ● Batteries must be disposed of in an environmentally responsible manner. No attempt must be made to incinerate or disassemble item. Your balance uses 4 standard AA (LR6) batteries (alkaline batteries preferred) 16 Installation and Putting Into Operation Insert / replace the batteries with the correct polarity as shown in the battery holder. Insert and close the battery-chamber cover. 5 6 7 Turn the balance carefully to its normal posi­ tion.

To reach operating temperature, the balance must be acclimatized and connected to the power supply for at least 30 minutes. 4.8.2   Adjusting the Balance To obtain accurate weighing results, the balance must be adjusted to match the gravitational accelera­ tion at its location and depending on the ambient conditions. After reaching the operation temperature, adjusting is necessary ● before the balance is used for the first time. ● after a change of the location. ● at regular intervals during weighing service. 4.9   Adjustment 4.9.1   Adjustment with external weight Note: Approved models must be adjusted at the place of operation. Before putting in operation, and depend­ ing on particular country certification legislation, the balance will then have to be checked and sealed by authorized personnel. See the detailed information delivered with this instrument.

WRONG POWER ADAPTOR AC power error: wrong or defec­ DETECTED – PLEASE CORRECT tive AC power adapter. YOUR POWER ADAPTOR Overload - The weight on the pan exceeds the weighing capacity of the balance. Underload Connect the balance to the pow­ er supply for charging the bat­ tery (e.g. during the night) or contact METTLER TOLEDO cus­ tomer service. Use correct power adapter or replace the power adapter. Reduce the weight on the weighing pan. Check that the weighing pan is positioned correctly. Troubleshooting 51 Error Message ABOVE INITIAL ZERO RANGE BELOW INITIAL ZERO RANGE MEM.FULL FACTOR OUT OF RANGE STEP OUT OF RANGE OUT OF RANGE Cause Wrong weighing pan or pan is not empty. Wrong weighing pan or pan is missing. Memory full. Factor is outside the allow range. Step is outside the allowed range. Sample weight is outside the allowed range. Rectification Mount correct weighing pan or unload weighing pan. Mount correct weighing pan. Clear the memory and start a new evaluation. Select a new factor. Select a new step. Unload the pan and load a new sample weight. Attention In some countries, excessive mains voltage fluctuations and strong glitches may occur. This may affect the balance functions or damage the software. If this is the case, we recommend using the Pow­ erPac-M-12V for stabilizing. 9.2   Status messages Status messages are displayed by means of small icons. The status icons indicate the following: Status Icon 52 Troubleshooting Signification Service Reminder Your balance is due for servicing. Contact your dealer's cus­ tomer service department as soon as possible to have a technician service your balance. (See menu topic "SRV.ICON") 10   Maintenance 10.1   Cleaning and Service Every now and then, clean the weighing pan, draft shield element, bottom plate, draft shield (depend­ ing on the model) and housing of your balance. Your balance is made from high-quality, durable materials and can therefore be cleaned using a damp cloth or with a standard, mild cleaning agent. Please observe the following notes: ● The balance must be disconnected from the power supply ● Ensure that no liquid comes into contact with the balance or the AC adapter. ● Never open the balance or AC adapter – they contain no components, which can be cleaned, repaired or replaced by the user. ● On no account use cleaning agents which contain solvents or abrasive ingredi­ ents, as this can result in damage to the operation panel overlay. ● Do not use wet, but only damp cloth for cleaning. Please contact your METTLER TOLEDO dealer for details of the available service options. Regular servicing by an authorized service engineer ensures constant accura­ cy for years to come and prolongs the service life of your balance. 10.2   Disposal In conformance with the European Directive 2002/96/EC on Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) this device may not be disposed of in domestic waste.
