3. Interesting facts
3.1 Weighing correctly
• Place the scale on a hard, plane level floor (no carpet); a firm floor covering is required for correct
measurement.
• If possible, always weigh yourself at the same time of day (preferably in the morning) striving for comparable
conditions, on an empty stomach and unclothed, in order to achieve comparable results.
• Stand still and upright during measurement.
3.2 General notes
• The capacity of the scale is 400 lb (181.4 kg/28.57 st).
• The results are shown in 0.2 lb increments (100 g / 0.02 st).
• On delivery the scale is set to the unit “lb”. A switch located on the back of the scale enables you to change
to “kg” or “st”.
