A 9-volt battery powers the Hoyer Electronic Digital Scale. A new battery should provide
approximately 3000 readings before needing replacement. When it needs to be replaced, a “B” will
appear on the display.
To Replace Battery
1.
Push black pad on bottom of unit to left.
2.
Battery holder will slide out.
3.
Remove old battery and replace with a new one.
4.
Push holder back into scale.
Operation Features
• All functions are accessible to the user without opening the case.
• Starting or zeroing the scale is done through a single touchpad located on the front of the case.
• Stable readings are achieved through digital averaging. The HOLD message is activated
when weight fluctuations decrease to a predetermined range. The scale becomes active again
when that range is exceeded. The held weight is stored in a non-volatile memory for later recall
if required.
• Display turns off after 60 seconds of inactivity to conserve battery life.
• Recall of the last held weight is available via a touchpad on the front of the case. This allows a
reading of the last patient’s weight, after the patient has been removed from the scale.
• Battery change is made easy with external access to the battery holder.
