Safety Information

- Any treatment or diet for people who are underweight or overweight requires the qualified advice of a professional (doctor, dietician). The values determined with the scales may be source of useful support.

- Risk of tipping over!

Do not place the scale on an uneven surface.

Never step onto a corner of the scales.

When weighing yourself, do not stand on one side or the edge of the scales.

- Risk of slipping!

Do not stand on the scale with wet feet.

Do not stand on the scale wearing socks.

• Use the device only according to its intended purpose as specified in the instruction manual.
• The warranty will be invalidated if the device is used for purposes other than those for which it is intended.
• The scale has been manufactured for domestic use. It is not suitable for commercial use in hospitals or other medical institutions.
• Do not use the device if it is not working correctly, if it has been dropped or has fallen into water or has been damaged.
• The scales have a measuring range up to 180 kg, 396 lb/28.8 st. Do not overload the scales.

• Place the scales on a firm, level base. Soft, uneven surfaces are unsuitable for the measuring process and lead to incorrect results.
• Do not use the scale in a location where extremely high temperatures or humidity may occur.

- Keep the scale away from water.

- Handle the scale with care. The scale must not be subjected to impacts or vibration. Do not drop the scale.

• Do not attempt to dismantle the scale, otherwise the warranty will be invalidated. This unit contains no user-maintainable or user-replaceable parts apart from the battery.
• Do not attempt to repair the device yourself in the event of a malfunction since this will invalidate the warranty. Repairs should only be carried out by authorised service centres.
• If the scale is not going to be used for a long period, please remove the batteries.

Replace the batterie if the battery change symbol "Lo" appears in the display 3 or if nothing appears in the display when the device is switched on. To do this, open the battery compartment beneath the device and insert one cell batterie (type CR2032). Place the battery in the empty compartment (not the compartment with the red sticker)! Please note polarity (positive pole upwards; facing towards the lid). Close the battery compartment again.

• Do not throw used batteries into the household refuse; put them in a hazardous waste container or take them to a battery collection point, at the shop where they were purchased!

3.2 Weighing

Place the scales on a hard, level base. This ensures accurate measuring results and is the requirement for safe weighing without risk of injury.

1. If you have moved the scales, this may cause the display to be activated. If anything other than "0.0 kg" is displayed, wait approx. 30 seconds until the scales switch off automatically.
2. Switch the scales on by briefly tapping the standing area ④ with a foot.
3. "8" will appear briefly on the display ③ followed by "0.0 kg". The personal scales are ready to measure. Do not step onto the scales before "0.0 kg" is displayed!
4. Stand on the scales and remain still. The display moves while your weight is being calculated. When the measurement has stabilised, the display stands still. Your measured body weight, e.g. 65.1 (65 kg 100 g), will be displayed for several seconds. The scales then switch off automatically. Step down from the scales.

NOTE

The scales will switch off automatically to save batteries if you do not step onto the scales within 10 seconds.

3.3 Change the Unit of Weight

The measuring unit of the MEDISANA personal scales PSL may be changed over. Turn the scales over and select the desired measuring unit KG, LB or ST using the black changeover switch ②.

3.4 Error messages

The following error messages may appear in the display:

Lo Replace the battery.

Err The scale is overloaded.

If your personal scales do not function to your satisfaction, check the following before contacting a service centre.

• Check whether the batteries have been inserted correctly.
• Check whether the correct unit of weight has been selected.
• Check whether the scales are freestanding on a solid and even surface. They must not be touching a wall or any other object.
• Weigh yourself again and make sure that you only step on the scales when "0.0 kg" has appeared in the display.

4.1
