5. WEIGHING

5-1 Basic Operation (Kilogram Mode)

1 Place a container on the weighing pan, if necessary.

Press the RE-ZERO key to cancel the weight (tare). The

balance displays 0.0000 kg . (The decimal point position

depends on the balance model.)

2 Place a sample on the pan or in the container.

3 Wait for the stabilization indicator to be displayed. Read

the value.

4 Remove the sample and container from the pan.

Notes

To use another unit, press the MODE key and select an

appropriate unit.

Press the SAMPLE key to turn on or off the minimum

weighing value.

The weighing data can be stored in memory. For details,

refer to “11. DATA MEMORY”.
