4.2 Cal Menu
Enter this menu to perform calibrations.
Initial Calibration
When the scale is operated for the first time, a span calibration is recommended to ensure
accurate weighing results. Before performing the calibration, be sure to have the appropriate
calibration weights as listed in table 4-1. Ensure that the LFT switch / calibration lock is set to
unlock position. See figure 5-1.
Or adjust the GEO setting according to your location (see table 4-2).
Procedure:
Press and hold Menu until [mMeNU] (Menu) is displayed. When the button is released, the display
will show [C.A.L]. Press Yes to accept. [SpaN] will then be shown. Press Yes to begin the span
calibration. [ 0 kg ] will be displayed. Press Yes to accept. [--C--] will be displayed while zero
reading is stored. Next, the display shows the calibration weight value. Place the specified
calibration mass on the pan. Press Yes to accept the weight or No to select an alternate weight.
[--C--] will be displayed while the reading is stored. The display will show [done] if the calibration
was successful. The scale returns to the previous application mode and is ready for use.

Geographical Adjustment Factor (GEO) is used to adjust the calibration based on the current
location. Settings from 0 to 31 are available with 12 being the default.
Refer to table 4-2 to determine the GEO factor that corresponds to your location.
