What should I do if my BEURER BF 700 scale is not weighing correctly?

Question

Accepted Answer

If your Beurer BF 700 scale is not weighing correctly or is not displaying a measurement, there could be several causes for this issue. Here’s how to diagnose and resolve the situation.

Check and replace the batteries

Start by checking the power supply. Your scale operates with 3 AAA 1.5V batteries (included). If you see "Lo" displayed on the LCD screen, it means the batteries are depleted and the device will automatically turn off. Always replace all 3 batteries simultaneously using the same type and brand. Before any other action, replace the faulty batteries - this is the most common cause of malfunction.

Place the scale on a proper surface

The Beurer BF 700 scale requires an absolutely flat, stable, and firm surface to function correctly. Place it on a hard floor (tile, hardwood, concrete) and not on a carpet, rug, or soft surface that would distort the measurements. Also, ensure that the tempered glass weighing surface is clean and dry. Under no circumstances should you weigh yourself with wet feet or when the surface is wet - this could distort the measurement and present a slipping risk.

Wait for the zero display before weighing

Before each weighing, wait for the screen to clearly display "0.0 kg". This indicates that the zero point of the scale is correctly established. Only step onto the scale when this stable display is visible. Remain still during the entire measurement - any movement or change in position would distort the result.

Reset the scale

If the scale does not display any function despite new batteries, completely remove the 3 batteries for about a minute, then reinsert them while ensuring correct polarity. Then wait for the screen to display "0.0 kg" before testing again. This reset usually resolves temporary issues.

Error messages

If an error message appears during weighing, it means the scale has detected an anomaly in the measurement. Check that you are on a flat and stable surface, and that the device displays "0.0 kg" before weighing yourself. Remember that the Beurer BF 700 has a maximum capacity of 180 kg with an accuracy of 100 g - ensure that your weight does not exceed this limit.

If after all these checks the scale still does not function correctly, there may be an internal technical issue requiring assistance from an authorized Beurer dealer or customer service.
