8.3 HOLD function
The scale is provided with the integrated hold function (determination of average
value). It enables people to be weighed accurately although they are not still on the
scale plate.
Note: Determination of average value is not possible when a person moves too
much.
Switch on the scale with the
[ON/OFF]
key. The diagnostic scale self-check is
performed. The scale is ready for weighing when the „
0,00 kg
” weight display
is shown.
Place a person in the centre of the scale plate.
Press the
[HOLD]
key. When the triangle is flashing on the display, the scale
takes some measuring values and then the calculated average value is dis-
played.
Press the
[HOLD]
key again to return the scale to the normal weighing mode.
Pressing the
[HOLD]
key makes it possible to activate the function at any
time.

A body height entered as the last one is flashing on the display. Now you can enter a
different value with the numerical keypad. Confirm the entered value with the

When the BMI index value is displayed, it is presented with the arrow pointing the
BMI
symbol. To return to the weighing mode, press the
