(ii)A multi-interval instrument shall not be fitted with an auxiliary indicating device.

(iii)Verification scale interval

The verification scale interval e shall be determined by the expressionD<e≤10d(***)such that e = 1x 10k kgk being a positive or negative whole number, or zero. This condition shall not apply to an instrument of class I with d < 1 mg. In that case e shall uniformly be 1 mg.(***) The value of e, calculated following this rule, are, for example,-TABLE 42

d =	0.1g	0.2 g	0.5 g
e=	1g	1g	1g

(a)Example of a complementary indicating device

(iv)Minimum capacity

The minimum capacity of the instrument is determined in conformity with the requirements in Table 40.

(v)Minimum number of verification scale intervals
