597KL/597KG HEIGHT MEASUREMENT INSTRUCTIONS
WARNINGS: Use caution when sliding height rod up and down. The rod should move smoothly, do
not move the rod in a jerking motion. Fold headpiece down when not in use.
A patient needs to be a minimum of 23-5/8" (600mm) in height for the height to be accurately measured.
Note:
1. With the headpiece folded down, slide the
headpiece up or down to the estimated height
of the patient. Then raise the headpiece into its
horizontal position.
To lower height rod below 46 3/8", push the tab at
the top of the height rod and gently lower the
headpiece.
2. Position the patient facing the display head.
Ensure that the patient's posture is upright, and
that the patient's head is straight and level.
Slide the headpiece down until it rests on the
patient's head.

value on the measuring strip nearest to the line
on the indicator, as shown on the next page.
