American Weigh AMW-810 User’s Manual 5000 x 1g
Thank you for purchasing the AMW-810 Bowl Scale. With normal care and proper treatment, it will provide you with years of reliable service. Please read all operating instructions carefully before using the scale. It may be necessary to calibrate the scale before its first use .
Avoid any exposure to extreme heat or cold. Your scale will work better when operating in normal room temperature. Always allow the scale to acclimate to normal room temperature for at least an hour before use.
Give the scale sufficient warm up time before use. Usually 30 to 60 seconds to give the internal components time to stablize.
Keep your scale in a clean environment. Dust, dirt, moisture, vibration, air currents, or a close proximity to other electronic equipment can cause an adverse effect on the reliability and accuracy of your scale.
Handle with care. Gently apply all items to be weighed onto the weighing surface. Although this scale is designed to be quite durable, avoid rough treatment as this may permanently damage the internal sensor.
Do not shake, drop, or otherwise shock the scale. This is a precision instrument and must be handled with extreme care.
Only operate the scale on a stable, vibration free surface.Always store in a dry place to avoid moisture accumulation on internal components.
