OBH Nordica Personal scale
Before use
Before you use the scale for the fi rst time you should read the instructions carefully and save
them for future use.
Since the scale is electronic you should be aware that the function can be affected by changes
in temperature or if you move the scale. The function can also be affected by other electronic
appliances as cell phones, heating coils, microwaves etc. Place the scale in a room with
normal temperature and let it acclimatize for 24 hours before you use it for the fi rst time.
Before the fi rst use or if the scale has been moved always do this procedure, otherwise it
may lead to wrongfull weighing. Start to reset the scale by tapping in the middle of the scale,
the display fl icker 4 lines for about 3 seconds, after that it shows “0.0”, let it automatically
turn off.
The tolerance of the scale is 1%, it means that if you weigh 70 kg it may vary between 69,3
and 70,7 kg. The scale has an interval of 100 g, so if you weigh 70,75 the display will show
either 70,7 or 70,8 kg (with 1% tolerance).
Helpful hints
To ensure reliable readings, always stand completely still on the scale, otherwise the result
may be misleading. Clothing or just eaten meals can have effect on the readings. If you
want to monitor your weight during a long period of time you should consider weighing
your self approximately the same time of the day each time, preferable without clothes
and without moving the scales in between.
Use
1. Place the scale on an even fl at surface and reset it as described before. Activate the scale by
lightly tapping the centre of the scale. When the display shows “0.0” it is ready to be used.
2. Step on the scale, place your feet at the same position each time and divide the weight
between both legs and between toe and heel. Remember to stand completely still. The
display fl inker“---“ for 3 seconds and your measurement will appear on the display.
3. When you have stepped off the scale your weight can be seen for a few seconds and
after that the display will show “0.0”. The display will automatically shut off after 5 seconds
which prolongs the lifetime of the battery.
If you overload the scale (max 150 kg) the display will show ”Err”.
