Charging the Battery

A. Plug the battery charger power cord into the 3-prong jack on control panel box. Secure to handrail with clips.

B. Plug the battery charger into a 120 VAC outlet.

C. The battery will fully charge in 8 hours. THE SCALE MAY BE USED WHILE THE BATTERY IS CHARGING.

NOTE: The battery cannot be overcharged by the specially designed charger built into this scale. Do not use any other charger or adapter, otherwise SERIOUS DAMAGE TO THE SCALE OR BATTERY CAN RESULT.

Optimum battery life will be obtained if the scale is operated and stored connected to 120 VAC. Always check plug to see if scale is charging before moving.

STORAGE: When storing the scale for an extended period of time (and the unit is not connected to a

120 VAC), the battery should be fully charged. The battery should then be charged every three months. A discharged battery should be recharged as soon as possible to prevent its useful life from decreasing significantly. A discharged battery left in the scale can leak and cause permanent damage to the battery and scale. Store the unit in a cool, dry place.

NOTE: Adjust platform height so it does not touch floor or carpet. An incorrect weight reading will result if the ramp touches the floor or carpet.

The rechargeable battery in this scale is similar to the no-maintenance lead-acid batteries used in automobiles. Since the battery is sealed, no checking of water level or adding of water to the battery is necessary. However, recharging at proper intervals and proper storage procedures are necessary, similar to an automobile battery. A fully charged battery will provide approximately 250 normal weighings before requiring recharging. When the display flashes “Lo-b,” the battery needs to be recharged.
