2.3.1 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.
Before using the scale for the first time, the battery should be fully charged
for up to 12 hours. During charging, the battery Indicator displays the
charge level (see table 1-1), and the scale can be operated during
charging. The battery is protected against over charging and the scale can
remain connected to the AC power line.
NOTE:
• Charging the scale must only be performed in a dry environment
CAUTION: Battery is to be replaced only by an authorized Ohaus service
dealer
Risk of explosion can occur if replaced with the wrong type or connected
improperly
