Use
•
The balance was designed to indicate precisely the increase in or the loss of
weight.
•
Position the balance on a hard, fl at surface (avoid carpets). Uneven fl oors lead
to imprecise readings.
•
Switch on the scales by pressing lightly with your foot or toes on the glass
surface.
•
The scales and the display perform a self-test. Shortly afterwards the value
“0.0” (kg) appears.
•
Step on the balance. Distribute your weight equally on the balance and wait for
the balance to calculate your weight. Your exact weight will then be displayed.
•
When you have got down from the scales they switch off automatically after
6 seconds in order to prolong battery life.
Batteries
The batteries are two long-life lithium cells. If the letters “LO” appear in the display
this means that the batteries need replacing as follows:
•
Open the battery compartment on the back of the scales.
•
Replace the batteries with two cells of type “CR 2032”. Please ensure the cor-
rect polarity (see fl oor of battery compartment or printed symbol on the exterior).
•
Close the lid of the battery compartment.
Note
: Do not dispose of batteries in the domestic waste. Please return used batte-
ries to the relevant collection points or the shop where they were bought.
Never throw batteries into a fi re.
Usage and care tips
•
Weigh yourself without any clothes or shoes on before meals and always at
the same hour of the day. The best time to weigh yourself is when you wake up
in the morning.
•
The balance rounds off weight to the closest 100 g.
•
If you weigh yourself twice and two different values are given, it means that
your weight is comprised between both values.
•
Do not immerse the balance in water: the electronic components can be dama-
ged.
•
Remove the batterie if the balance is not to be used for a long period of time.
•
Handle the balance with care, as it is a precise measuring instrument. Do not
drop it or jump on it.
•
Absolutely no need for maintenance.
•
If the display shows „LO“, change the batteries.
•
Do not load the appliance with more than 150 kg to avoid damaging the device.
•
If the letters „ERR“ (error) appear, the weight is above 150 kg.
