General Safety Instructions
•
Read the operating instructions carefully before putting the appliance into ope-
ration and keep the instructions including the warranty, the receipt and, if possi-
ble, the box with the internal packing.
•
The appliance is designed exclusively for private use and for the envisaged pur-
pose. This appliance is not fit for commercial use. Do not use it outdoors (except
if it is designed to be used outdoors). Keep it away from sources of heat, direct
sunlight, humidity (never dip it into any liquid) and sharp edges. Do not use the
appliance with wet hands. If the appliance is humid or wet, unplug it immediate-
ly. Do not put it in water.
•
When cleaning or putting it away, switch off the appliance and always pull out
the plug from the socket (pull on the plug, not the cable) if the appliance is not
being used and remove the attached accessories.
•
Never leave the appliance unsupervised. To protect children from the dangers
posed by electrical appliances, make sure that the cable is hanging low and that
children do not have access to the appliance.
•
Check the appliance and the cable for damage on a regular basis. Do not use
the appliance if it is damaged.
•
Do not try to repair the appliance on your own. Always contact an authorized
technician. To avoid the exposure to danger, always have a faulty cable be
replaced only by the manufacturer, by our customer service or by a qualified
person and with a cable of the same type.
•
Use only original spare parts.
•
Pay careful attention to the following “Special Safety Instructions“.
Special Safety Instructions for this Machine
•
Please do not immerse your scales in water.
•
The scales are designed for a maximum weight of 120 kg.
Use
• The balance was designed to indicate precisely the increase in or the loss of
weight.
• Position the balance on a hard, flat surface (avoid carpets). Uneven floors lead to
imprecise readings.
• Check the 0 position: when at rest the 0 mark must be located directly in corre-
spondence of the cursor. If this is not the case, correct the position of the dial
scale by turning the regulator on the bottom of the balance.
• Step on the balance. Distribute your weight equally on the balance and stand still
while the dial is still moving. Your weight will soon be displayed on the large,
easy-to-read dial scale.
