This scale is an instrument of precision. Do not submit the scale to
shaking, excessive vibration, or other rough treatment; use on a flat,
and stable surface.
The display may be affected by electromagnetic disturbances such as
radios, microwaves, or cell phones. If such disturbances occur, remove
the source of the disturbance, and restart the scale.
Disassembling, or tampering with the scale voids the warranty.
Clean the scale with a damp cloth; do not submerge in liquid; scale is
not waterproof.
For best results, use alkaline batteries.
Failure to insert batteries in the correct polarity, as indicated in the bat-
tery compartment, may shorten the life of the batteries or cause batter-
ies to leak.
Do not mix Alkaline, Standard (Carbon-Zinc) or Rechargeable (Nickel
Cadmium) or (Nickel Metal Hydride) batteries. Do not mix old and new
batteries.
Batteries should be recycled or disposed of as per state and local
guidelines. Do not dispose of batteries in fire!
