For Accurate Measurements
Always…
Ensure the weighing platform is placed on a level and stable surface.
Avoid measuring in multiple locations with greatly differing temperatures.
This may cause inaccurate measurements. Allow the equipment to stand for at least
2 hours before using if it is moved to a new location with a temperature difference
of 36˚F / 20°C or more.
Avoid subjecting the equipment to excessive shocks or vibrations.
Use in a stable location.
Errors in measurements may occur if the device is used in an unstable location.
Scheduled Maintenance
Always…
Update settings, replace items, or call for service as necessary according to the results of the
visual inspections. Do not use the unit if you see any signs of damage. Equipment that has been
damaged must be checked for proper operation by qualified personnel before using again.
TANITA recommends that each facility conduct periodic checks of each unit.
1. Check the following at least daily:
• The unit is on a stable and level surface ie on a firm flooring, not on a thick carpet
2. Visually inspect the following at least weekly:
• The display for any damage or contamination
• All cables, cords, and connector ends for damage or contamination
• All safety-related labeling for legibility
• All accessories (sensors, electrodes, etc.) for wear or damage
3. Visually inspect the following at least monthly:
• Screws on equipment
