Batteries can be life-threatening. Therefore, keep batteries out of reach of small children. If a battery has been swallowed or has entered the body in any other way, seek medical help immediately.

Also beware that children do not pull the packaging material over their heads. RISK of fire/burning and/or explosion There is a risk of explosion if batteries are replaced incorrectly. Replace the battery using only the same or an equivalent type of battery. Pay attention to the “Technical Data”. Batteries must not be recharged, reactivated by other means, dismantled, thrown into fire, or short-circuited. Otherwise there is an increased risk of explosion and of leakage; furthermore, gases may escape. Avoid contact with skin, eyes, and mucosa.

Do not overload the scales. Pay attention to the “Technical Data”. Place yourself on the scales exclusively for weighing purposes. Protect the scales from sharp jolts and vibrations. Remove the battery from the item once it has been used up or if you are no longer using the scales. You will thus avoid damage that may result from the leakage of battery acid.

Increased risk of leakage! Clean the battery and device contacts, as needed, before inserting the battery. Do not make any modifications to the scales. Only allow repairs to be carried out at a specialist workshop. Repairs carried out incorrectly can considerably endanger the user. Do not place the scales in the vicinity of devices which may emit electromagnetic radiation, such as mobile phones, wireless devices, or the like. Doing so may lead to incorrect display indicators or malfunctions. There are feet on the underside of the scales. Since floor surfaces are made from various materials and are treated with diverse care products, the possibility cannot be completely excluded that some of these substances contain constituents that attack and soften the feet of the device. If necessary, place an anti-slip underlay beneath the scales. Intended Use The bathroom scales are designed for the weighing of people in the home.
