CAUTION! DANGER OF IN-

JURY! Do not step on to the scales with wet feet and do not use the scales if the platform is moist. You might slip. Protect your scales from impact, moisture, dust, chemicals and sudden changes in temperature and keep them away from sources of heat (ovens, heating radiators). Do not expose the device to: - extreme temperatures, - strong vibrations, - high mechanical loads, - direct solar radiation, - moisture. Failure to observe this advice may result in damage to the device. Check the device for damage before bringing it into use. If the device is damaged do not use it. Remove the battery if the device breaks down or is defective. Otherwise the battery is more likely to leak. Never open the device housing. This could result in personal in- jury or damage to the device. Always have any repairs carried out at the service centre or by an electrical equipment repair specialist. CAUTION! The scale bears a danger of stumbling and hence it should be stored in a way which prevents this danger. Dangers arising from the use of batteries DANGER TO LIFE! Batteries are not intended to be in the hands of children. Do not leave batteries lying around. They could be swallowed by children or pets. In the event of swallowing a battery, contact a doctor immediately! CAUTION! DANGER OF EXPLOSION! Never recharge single-use batter- ies. Do not short-circuit or open them. Overheating, fire or destruc- tion of the batteries might result. Never throw batteries into fire or water. The batteries might explode. 102611_silv_Personenwaage_content_GB_IE_FI_SE_DK_BE_NL.indd 6 28.10.14 11:367 GB/IE Avoid extreme environmental conditions and temperatures as they may affect batteries e.g. above radiators. Otherwise the batteries are more likely to leak. Exhausted or damaged batteries can cause caus- tic burns upon contact with the skin. To avoid this, always wear suitable protective gloves in these circumstances! Avoid contact with the skin, eyes and mucous membranes if fluid is leaking from a battery. If you come into contact with corrosive battery fluids, flush the affected area thoroughly with clean water and contact a doctor immediately. Remove the battery if you are not going to use the device for an extended period. When inserting the battery, en- sure the correct polarity! This is shown in the battery compartment. Remove a spent battery immedi- ately from the device. There is an increased danger of leaks! Batteries must not be disposed of in the normal domestic waste! Every consumer is legally obliged to dispose of batteries in the proper manner!

eep batteries away from childr en; do not throw batteries in the fire, short-circuit them or take them apart. If the above instructions are not complied with, the battery may discharge itself beyond its end voltage. There is then a danger of leaking. If the battery has leaked inside your device, you should remove it immediately in order to prevent damage to the device! Before first use Removing the insulation strips Note: The product is supplied with the battery already in place. Before first use pull the insulation strip out from between the battery and the battery compartment. Preparing for use Inserting the battery See Fig. A

If the scales do not appear to work, check that the battery has been inserted correctly and reinsert it if necessary. Note: The display indicates when it is time to replace the battery. When you step on to the scales and the battery is too weak, the LC display shows “Lo” (see Fig. D) and the scales switch off automatically. If you see this message, replace the exhausted battery with a new battery of the same type. When you insert the battery, make sure that the contacts do not get bent. 102611_silv_Personenwaage_content_GB_IE_FI_SE_DK_BE_NL.indd 7 28.10.14 11:368 GB/IE Setting the units of weight Note: The standard unit of weight is kilogram (kg). The factory default setting for the scales as supplied is “kg”. Press the kg / lb switch to select the unit of w eight. The units will be displayed in the LC display as follows: Kilogram (kg): see Figure B Pound (lb): see Figure F Switching on your scales / measuring your weight Tip: Weigh yourself at the same time of day (preferably in the morning) after visiting the toilet, with an empty stomach and without clothing to ensure that your results are compatible. Place the scales down on a solid, flat horizontal surface. Step on to the scales. Place even weight on each leg. If at all possible stand on the same areas of the platform each time and do not move. Moving during the weighing process can lead to discrepancies in the results. The scales will start to measure immediately. After blinking 3 times, the weight display will display the result, as shown in, for example, Fig. C. Note: If the scale shows „C“ after you step off the platform

(see Fig. G), there has been an error weighing. Repeat the process. Note: If the scales show “OL” (see Fig. E), it signals that the scales are overloaded. Observe the maximum capacity of 180 kg (396 lb). Step off the platform. The scales switch off automatically after about 10 seconds. Until then the weight measurement remains visible. Note: After a change of location and follow- ing every battery change, the scales must be re-calibrated. To do this, proceed as follows: Step onto the scales. The scales will show you an incorrect measuring result. Step off the plat- form. The scales will calibrate automatically. Wait until the scales switch off automatically. Step onto the scales once again. The scales will show you the correct measuring result. Troubleshooting This appliance has delicate electronic compo- nents. This means that if it is placed near an object that transmits radio signals, it could cause interference. If the display indicates a problem, move such objects away from it. Electrostatic charge can lead to the appliance failing. In cases of the appliance failing to work remove the batteries for a short while and then replace them. Cleaning Do not use chemical cleaners or scouring agents for cleaning the device. Clean the device using a slightly moist cloth. For more stubborn dirt you can also apply a weak soap solution to the cloth. Never immerse the device in water or other liquids. Ignoring this advice may damage the device. Ensure that no water enters the device. If this does occur, then wait until the device has dried out fully before you use it again.
