- You can also identify status of battery charging by the colour of the LED control light placed in the right hand corner above the display.
- When the scale is plugged into mains the power pack will be recharged automatically.
- LED is illuminated green the batteries have full charge. If it is red the battery is nearly discharged and yellow indicates the battery is under charge.
- Battery life becomes weaker if lifetime after charging becomes shorter. In this case contact your local dealer or service partner.
- Please make sure the local voltage supply corresponds to the indication printed on the adapter.
Positioning of the scale
Make sure all four feet of the platform have direct contact to the surface.
The spirit level of the scale is an additional tool to make sure the scale is carefully positioned and offers best results when the air bubble is centred.
The alignment of the scale must be checked and corrected every time the location of the scale is changed.
