BEWARE of material damage Place the scale on a stable, even surface. Do not overload the scale. Pay attention to the “Technical Data”. Place yourself on the scale exclusively for weighing purposes. Protect the scale from sharp jolts and vibrations. Remove the battery from the scale once it has been used or when you are no longer using the scale. You will thus avoid damage that may result from the leakage of battery acid. When inserting and changing batteries, pay attention to the correct polarity (+/-). Do not subject the battery to any extreme conditions, by – for example – storing it on radiators or under direct sunlight. Increased risk of leakage! Clean the battery and device contacts, as needed, before inserting the battery. Do not make any modications to the item. Only allow repairs to be carried out at a specialist workshop. Repairs carried out incorrectly can considerably endanger the user. Do not place the scale 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 scale. Since 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 scale. Koerperwaage BE 1723.indb 15 15.01.2018 10:17:10At a glance
