Valor 5000 Series
Before using the scale for the first time, the internal rechargeable battery
should be fully charged for up to 15 hours. The scale can be operated
during the charging process. The battery is protected against over
charging and the scale can remain connected to the AC power line.
Plug the AC Adapter into the receptacle marked "Power In" located on the underside of the scale
and allow it to charge. While the battery is charging, the segments in the battery symbol will
alternately light. When the battery is fully charged, the battery symbol will disappear.

Battery Power
The scale can be operated on the internal rechargeable battery when AC power is not available. The
scale will automatically switch to battery operation if there is a power failure or the power cord is
removed. A fully charged battery can operate the scale for up to 120 hours (with the backlight off)
independent of the AC power line.
During battery operation, the battery symbol will light to show the current discharge status of the
battery (1 segment = 25% capacity). A flashing symbol indicates that the battery requires recharging.
The scale will automatically turn off when the battery is fully discharged.
BATTERY IS TO BE REPLACED ONLY BY AN AUTHORIZED OHAUS SERVICE DEALER.

2.5 Initial Calibration
