Thank you for purchasing a PRO-JECT AUDIO stylus balance.

Important notice.

Calibration

1 Make sure the surface is level.
2 Turn on the meter with the ON/OFF button. The display will show 0.000 after a few seconds. Give your

stylus balance sufficient warm up time. Usually 30 seconds to give the internal components time to stabilise
before calibrating.
3 Press and hold the MODE button until the display shows CAL and 5.000 (flashing).
4 Gently place the 5g weight on the centre of the platform. After approximately 5 seconds the display will
read 5.000, PASS and 5.000.

Occasionally the display will show for example 5.002 or 5.004 instead of 5.000. This is no defect.
It will not affect the calibration.
