Basic Information (General)

2.1 Proper use

These balance is used to calculate the weight of people in the private sphere.
Utilisation of this balance in the medical field is not permissible.
A person must stand on the weighing plate for the weighing procedure. As soon as a
stable weighing value is reached the weighing value can be read.
When using balance with height measurement, ensure that the top flap is turned
downwards immediately after use in order to avoid risk of injury.
The balance should be checked for correct condition prior to each utilisation by a
person familiar with proper operation of the balance.

2.2 Improper Use

Do not use balance for dynamic weighings. In the event that small quantities are re-
moved or added to the material to be weighed, incorrect weighing results can be dis-
played due to the "stability compensation" in the balance. (Example: Slowly draining
fluids from a container on the balance. )
Do not leave permanent load on the weighing plate. This may damage the measur-
ing system.
Impacts and overloading exceeding the stated maximum load (max) of the balance,
minus a possibly existing tare load, must be strictly avoided. This could cause dam-
age to the balance.
Never operate balance in explosive environment. The serial version is not explosion
protected.
The structure of the balance may not be modified. This may lead to incorrect weigh-
ing results, safety-related faults and destruction of the balance.
The balance may only be used according to the described conditions. Other areas of
use must be released by KERN in writing.
