Weighing Using the Recalculation Mode
Let’s suppose that you poured in too much of one color component for a given formula (in
this example, a 4-component recipe)�
This example further assumes that you previously poured in all of the other amounts exactly
according to each of the values you entered and saved by pressing the
L
key [MEM] (9)�
To correct for the overpour, press the
S
key (16) to start the recalculation program;
C
flashes
on the display� Use the
R
key (18; up) or
S
key (16; down) to correct the value so that it
matches the amount called for in the formula� Then press
L
[MEM] (8) to have the scale
calculate the amount to be added for each of the components that were already poured�
The display shows the amounts required to correct the formula up to the point at which the
overpour occurred� After the correction has been completed, you can continue filling the
remaining components�
Note:
You can correct overpours as often as needed�
Keep in mind that the total quantity of paint at the conclusion of filling increases each time
you correct a component� Press the
c
key (7) to check how much the total quantity will be�
The
C
stands for “Correction factor�”
A flashing arrow
n
on the display indicates that the weight value displayed is not valid in
legal metrology (i�e�, not legal for trade)�

5� Pour in the second component until »

6� Pour in the last component until »

This concludes the recalculation example�
According to the display, exactly 1000 g was poured
in, but the paint can actually contains 3 kg by weight
in accordance with the factor you selected (3)�
The procedure is the same for any other conversion
