3.4 Choice of a suitable location
The environment in which your weighing machine is used is 
very important. Air movement, temperature changes, 
vibrations, direct sunlight, etc. all influence the performance of 
high precision weighing machines. Therefore, place your 
weighing machine on a solid, sturdy surface that is free of air 
currents, vibration and not in direct sunlight. The surface 
should not be magnetic and should be located away from 
doors, windows, heaters, air conditioners and fans. 
To summarize:
Put the weighing machine on a solid, firm and
preferably vibration-proof, horizontal base.
Make sure that the weighing machine cannot be
shaken, bumped or knocked over.
Protect from direct solar radiation at all times.
Avoid drafts and excessive temperature fluctuations.
3.5 Checking the mains voltage 
 
The following Safety recommendations must be observed 
when connecting the balance to the mains: 
 
 
The weighing machine may only be operated with the power 
adapter supplied. 
 
Check before connecting the power adapter to the mains 
supply, that the operating voltage stated on the power adapter 
agrees with the local mains voltage. 
 
If the operating voltage is not the same as the mains voltage, 
the power adapter must, on no account, be connected to the 
mains supply. Contact customer service.
