Calibration
1 Make sure the surface is level.
2Turn on the meter with the ON/OFF button. The display will show 0.000 after a few seconds.
Give your stylus balance sufficient warm up time. Usually 30 seconds give the internal
components time to stabilise before calibrating.
3Press and hold the MODE button until the display shows CAL and then press the MODE button
again, the display will show 5.000 (flashing) after CAL (flashing).
4Gently place the 5g weight on the centre of the platform. After approximately 5 seconds the
display will read 5.000, PASS and 5.000.
Occasionally the display will show for example 5.002 or 5.004 instead of 5.000. This is
no defect. It will not affect the calibration.
5Remove the weight and press ON/OFF to turn off the meter.
Choosing the weighting mode
The meter has to be turned on. The display shows 0.000. Pressing the MODE switches between the
different weighting modes.

components time to stabilise.
