8. Battery operation
The weighing indicator can be operated from the battery if desired. The battery life is
approsimately 50 hours.
When the battery needs charging a symbol on the weight display will turn on. The
battery should be charged when the symbol is on. The scale will still operate for
about 10 hours after which it will automatically switch off to protect the battery.
To charge the battery simply plug into the mains power. The scale does not need to
be turned on.
The battery should be charged for 12 hours for full capacity.
Just under the quantity display is an LED to indicate the status of battery charging.
When the scale is plugged into the mains power the internal battery will be charged.
If the LED is green the battery has a full charge. If it is Red the battery is nearly
discharged and yellow indicates the battery is being charged.
As the battery is used it may fail to hold a full charge. If the battery life becomes
unacceptable then contact your distributor.
