Trouble Shooting
In Case of Difficulty...
1. Place your feet in the same position every time you weigh yourself. Stand still during
measurement.
2. Weigh yourself without clothing whenever possible. Clothes can vary in weight.
3. Move the scale to a location where it won't be bumped. If your scale is bumped while being
activated or while in use, an inaccurate reading may occur.
4. For the most consistent readings, weigh yourself at the same time of day. Allow for weight
fluctuations due to food or drink in your system.
5. The maximum capacity of this scale is 396
lb / 180 kg. Should “OL” appear on the display
during a weighing, this indicates that the maximum weighing capacity of the scale has been
exceeded. Remove the weight immediately; otherwise, permanent damage may occur.
6. If the message
“CAL” or a blank screen displays: Instability or Initialization error. To correct,
step off the platform and allow the display to turn off. Then step on the scale again and remain
still while the scale computes.
7. If the pointer does not return to zero, reset the scale by removing all the batteries and reinstall
them.
Precautions
1. Clean exposed parts with a soft, slightly damp cloth. To remove stains, use a mild soap.
Never use detergents, excess water, treated cloths, harsh cleaning agents, or sprays. Do not
attempt to lubricate or open scale casing as this will void your warranty.
2. Although your scale is designed to be maintenance-free, it contains sensitive electronic parts.
Avoid rough treatment. Do not drop, kick, or jump on it. Treat it with care to ensure the best
performance.
3. This scale is designed to read weights between 11 and 396 lb / 5 and 180 kg. To prevent
damage do not place more than 396 lb / 180 kg on it.
4. Do not store scale where you store cleaning chemicals. The vapors from some household
products may affect the electronic components of your scale. Do not store scale on its side.
5. This scale is an extremely sensitive weighing device. In order to prevent run down of the
battery, do not store anything on the scale.
6. Do not dispose of batteries in fire. Batteries may explode or leak. Always replace all batteries
at the same time; do not mix old and new batteries. Do not mix alkaline, standard (carbon-zinc)
or rechargeable (ni-cad, ni-mh, etc.) batteries. Remove the batteries if the scale will not be used
for a long period of time.
