Information regarding the handling of batteries

This scale is intended solely

• for use as a bathroom scale • in a domestic environment. This appliance is not intended for commercial or industrial use.

This appliance utilises batteries. When interacting with batteries, please observe the following:

• Never open batteries, never solder or weld batteries. The risk of explosions and injuries exists!

• Regularly check the condition of the batteries. Leaking batteries can cause damage to the appliance. • If you do not intend to use the appliance for an extended period, remove the batteries. • In the event of the batteries leaking acids, put on a pair of protective gloves. Then clean the battery compartment and the battery contacts with a dry cloth. • Keep batteries away from children. Children can put batteries into their mouths and swallow them. If a battery is swallowed, medical assistance must be sought immediately.

Do not throw batteries into a fire. Do not recharge the batteries.

• Ensure that no liquids permeate into the scale, the display or the speaker. There is a risk of receiving an electric shock! • This appliance is not intended for use by individuals (including children) with restricted physical, physiological or intellectual abilities or deficiences in experience and/or knowledge unless they are supervised by a person responsible for their safety or receive from this person instruction in how the appliance is to be used. Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.

• Do not place the scale in the immediate vicinity of sources of heat. The scale and the display may only be operated at temperatures between 10° and 40°C. Higher or lower temperatures can lead to malfunctions or to permanent damage. • Never burden these bathroom scales with a weight of more than 150 kg / 330 lb! This could irreparably damage the scales.

Avoid electrostatic charging and discharging. These can cause erroneous displays and/or the sudden deactivation of the scales.

For damage caused by... • opening of the scales housing • repairs attempted by non-qualified personnel and • improper usage of the scales • no liability/warranty will be accepted by the manufacturer!

Usage and safe-keeping

Should your weight exceed the maximum weighing capacity of 150 kg / 300 lb, "0 - Ld" is shown in the display 2. You should IMMEDIATELY step down from the scale, otherwise it could be damaged.

If the display 2 shows "L0" and "battery weak" sounds, you must replace the batteries.

If the display 2 shows "Err" and "Error" sounds, the scale cannot measure. In this case, step down from the scale, wait a few seconds and then try again.

Take note that you need to both stand still and not interrupt the weighing procedure.

• Avoid unnecessary battery discharge.

Accordingly, do not place objects on the glass scale when it is not being used. Remove the batteries if you do not intend to use the scale for an extended period. • Keep the scale at a clean and dry location. • Avoid electrostatic charging. • Your scale is a sensitive electronic device. As such, it can occasionally be disturbed by other highfrequency appliances that are being operated in the immediate vicinity (e.g. mobile telephones, CB radio stations, radio remote controls and microwave ovens). Should irregular or inaccurate errors be indicated in the display 2, either remove the scale from the source of the disturbance or switch the source of the disturbance off whilst you are using the appliance.

Clean your scale exclusively with a neutral detergent and a soft cloth.
