Warming up
Before performing calibration on the balance or measuring its accuracy it is necessary
to ensure that the balance is in a stable state.
For balance stabilization it is important that environmental temperature is stable.
Leave the balance on and in weighing mode for at least half an hour before
performing calibration; this is called "warming up".
Calibration
Perform balance calibration each time after moving it. Weights are required for
external calibration balances.
Necessary calibration weight depending on maximum capacity of the balance

Before performing calibration, warm up the balance in advance.
1. Remove any substance or object from the pan and press TARE key to change
displayed value to 0.0g or 0.00g.
2. Keep pressed CAL key for 3 seconds until "---CAL---" is displayed.
3. Then the value of calibration weight will flash on display.
4. Put the calibration weight on the pan; after a few seconds "------" will be displayed,
wait until the value of calibration weight is shown on display.
5. Remove the weight; for a few seconds "------" will be displayed until the balance
enters stable weighing mode showing 0.0g or 0.00g.
6. It is recommended to make this operation twice to achieve the best calibration
result.
7. Lineal calibration: keep pressed CAL key for a 3 seconds until "---CAL---" is
displayed and then the value of calibration weight. Keep pressed PCS key to
enter in Lineal calibration mode and follow the instructions on display.
Note: for lineal calibration is necessary the use of several calibration weights. It is
recommended to perform lineal calibration only when big tolerance (error) is detected
in repeatability or linearity of the balance. It is not recommended to make lineal
calibration frequently.
