2.  Important notes – 
    keep for later use!

2.1 Safety notes:
•  The scales must not be used by persons with medical implants (e.g. heart pace-

makers). Otherwise their function could be impaired.

•  Do not use during pregnancy. Inaccurate measurements may be caused by the amni-

otic fluid.

•  Caution! Do not stand on the scale with wet feet and do not step on the scale when its 

surface is wet – danger of slipping!

•  Batteries are highly dangerous if swallowed. Keep batteries and scale out of reach of small children. If 

batteries are swallowed, get medical help immediately.

•  Keep children away from packing materials (danger of suffocation).
•  Batteries must not be charged or reactivated by other means, taken apart, thrown into a fire or short-

circuited.

2.2 General notes:

•  The unit is for personal use only and is not intended for medical or commercial applications.
•  Please note that technically related measuring tolerances are possible, as the scale is not calibrated 

for professional medical applications. 

•  The diagnostic scale can be preset for an age range of 10 –100 years and heights of 100 –220 cm 

(3’ 03”–7’ 03”). The scale can accept a maximum load of 150 kg (330 lb, 24 St). The weight measure-
ment is displayed in increments of 100 g (0.2 lb, 1/4 St) angezeigt. The measuring results for the body 
fat, body water and muscle percentages are displayed in 0.1% increments.

•  On delivery, the scale is set to “cm” and “kg”. At the back of the scales is a switch with which you can 

switch between “inches”, “pounds” and “stones” (lb, st.).

•  Place the scale on a firm level floor; a firm floor covering is required for correct measurement.
•  The scale should be cleaned occasionally with a damp cloth. Do not use abrasive detergents and 

never immerse the scale in water.

•  Protect the scale against hard knocks, moisture, dust, chemicals, major temperature fluctuations and 

heat sources which are too close (stove, heating radiators).

•  Repairs may only be carried out by customer service or authorized dealers. Before submitting any 

complaint, first check the batteries and replace them if necessary.

•  All scales comply with EC Directive 2004/108/EC + supplements. Should you have any questions con-

cerning the use of our scale, please contact your dealer or customer service.

•  Please dispose of the blanket in accordance with the directive 2002/96/EG – WEEE (Waste 

Electrical and Electronic Equipment). If you have any queries, please refer to the local authori-
ties responsible for waste disposal.

3. Operation

3.1 Batteries

If present, pull the battery insulating strip off the battery compartment cover or re-
move the battery’s protective film and insert the battery according to the polarity. If 
the scale fails to operate, remove the battery completely and insert it again. Your scale 
is equipped with a “replace battery” indicator. When the scale is operated with a bat-
tery which is too weak, “LO” appears in the display field and the scale automatically 
switches off. The battery must be replaced in this case (2 x 3 V lithium battery CR2032). 
The used, completely drained standard and rechargeable batteries must be disposed of 
in specially marked collection containers, at toxic waste collection points or electrical 
product retailers. You are legally obligated to dispose of the batteries.
Note: Batteries containing pollutants are marked with the following symbols: Pb = Battery 
contains lead, Cd = Battery contains cadmium, Hg = Battery contains mercury.
Place the scale on a firm, flat surface; a firm floor covering is a basic requirement for cor-
rect weight measurement.
