Installation Instructions
Your balance/scale is designed to provide reliable weighing results under normal ambient conditions. When choosing a location to set up your balance/scale, observe the following so that you will be able to work with added speed and accuracy:
– Set up the balance/scale on a stable, even surface
– Avoid placing the balance/scale in close proximity to a heater or otherwise exposing the balance/scale to heat or direct sunlight
– Protect the balance/scale from drafts that come from open windows or doors
– Avoid exposing the balance/scale to extreme vibrations during weighing
– Protect the balance/scale from aggressive chemical vapors
– Do not expose the balance/scale to extreme moisture over long periods
Conditioning the Balance/Scale:
Moisture in the air can condense on the surfaces of a cold balance/ scale whenever it is brought into a substantially warmer place. If you transfer the balance/scale to a warmer area, make sure to condition it for about 2 hours at room temperature, leaving it unplugged from AC power.
Information on Radio Frequency Interference
Warning!
This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause interference to radio communications.
It has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A computing device pursuant to Subpart J of Part 15 of FCC Rules, which are designed to provide reasonable protection against such interference, when operated in a commercial environment. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause interference, in which case the user, at his own expense, will be required to take whatever measures may be required to correct the interference.

!When using a rechargeable battery, always use an external charger to recharge the battery
§ Lay the balance/scale on its side
§ Open the battery compartment:
Lift the compartment cover
§ Insert the 9-volt (rechargeable) battery in the compartment
$ Make sure to connect the positive and negative poles correctly
!All used batteries are classified as waste that requires special handling (not “household” waste). Dispose of rechargeable batteries in accordance with the applicable special waste disposal regulations.
§ Close the battery compartment:
Press down on the cover until it clicks into place
Selecting the Line Voltage (Mains Voltage)
Use the following original AC adapters for selecting the line voltage:
– AC adapter TNG8, order no. 6971951 (universal) or
– AC adapter TNG8, order no. 6971952 (for the U.K.)
● Use the switch to toggle between 230 V and 115 V

Level the balance/scale any time you set it up in a new location. Use only the 2 front feet of the balance/scale for leveling.
§ Turn the 2 rear feet until they are in position
(only on models BL1500S and GM1502, GM2202 and GM1202)
§ Turn the 2 front feet as shown here in the illustration until the air bubble is centered in the level indicator
> In most cases, this will require several adjustment steps
Anti-theft Locking Device

Weigh Averaging
Purpose
Use this program to determine weights under unstable ambient conditions. In this program, the balance/scale calculates the weight as the average value from a defined number of individual weighing operations. These weighing operations are also known as “subweighing operations” or “subweighs.”
Available Features
– The measured result displayed is the arithmetic mean shown in the selected weight unit; a triangle indicates that this is a calculated value
– You can set the number of subweighing operations performed in the operating menu:
See “Configuring the Balance/Scale”
– Press v for at least 2 sec. to display the preset number of subweighing operations
– Press v to toggle the display between the calculated result and the weight
Factory Settings
Number of subweighs for averaging: 10 (3. 3. 2)

Care and Maintenance
Service
Regular servicing by a Sartorius technician will extend the service life of your balance/scale and ensure its continued weighing accuracy. Sartorius can offer you service contracts, with your choice of regular maintenance intervals ranging from 1 month to 2 years. The frequency of the maintenance intervals depends on the user’s operating conditions and the tolerance limits.
Repairs
Repair work must be performed by trained service technicians. Any attempt by untrained persons to perform repairs may lead to hazards for the user.
Cleaning
!Disconnect the balance/scale from the AC adapter and unplug any interface cables that are connected to the balance/scale
!Make sure that no liquid enters the balance/scale housing
!Do not use any aggressive cleaning agents (solvents or similar agents)
§ Clean the balance/scale using a piece of cloth which has been wet with a mild detergent (soap)
§ After cleaning, wipe down the balance/scale with a soft, dry cloth
Removing and Cleaning the Weighing Pan:
● Lift up and remove the weighing pan together with the pan support by gripping them from under the shield ring. Make sure that you do not damage the weighing system in doing so.

Safety Inspection
If there is any indication that safe operation of the balance/scale with the AC adapter is no longer warranted:
§ Turn off the power and disconnect the equipment from AC power immediately
> Lock the equipment in a secure place to ensure that it cannot be used for the time being
Safe operation of the balance/scale with the AC adapter is no longer ensured when:
– there is visible damage to the AC adapter
– the AC adapter no longer functions properly
– The AC adapter has been stored for a relatively long period under unfavorable conditions
In this case, notify your nearest Sartorius Service
Center or the International Technical Support Unit based in Goettingen, Germany. Maintenance and repair work may only be performed by service technicians who are authorized by Sartorius and who
– have access to the required maintenance manuals
– have attended the relevant service training courses
Instructions for Recycling the Packaging
To ensure adequate protection for safe shipment, your balance/scale has been packaged to the extent necessary using environmentally friendly materials.
After successful installation of the balance/scale, you should return this packaging for recycling because it is a valuable source of secondary raw material.
For information on recycling options, including recycling of old weighing equipment, contact your municipal waste disposal center or local recycling depot.
