the display (HOLD)
NOTE
If the patient is not steady on his or her legs,
offer use of the folding seat. Support the patient
as he or she sits down if necessary.
4. Read off the measurement result.
Using the TARE function, you can prevent any extra
weight (e.g. a towel or a support on the weighing plat-
form) from affecting the weighing result.
ATTENTION!
Incorrect measurement due to force shunts
If an extra weight, e.g. a large towel, contacts
the surface on which the scale is placed, weight
will not be measured correctly.
– Make sure that extra weights are only placed
on the scale's weighing surface.
1. Switch on the scale.
2. Place the extra weight on the scale.
3. Hold the (hold/tare) arrow key down until the

4. Wait until the display stops flashing and 0.00

5. Weigh the patient as described in the section
entitled "Starting the weighing procedure".
6. Read off the measurement result.
The additional weight is automatically deducted.
7. To deactivate the TARE function, press the (hold/
tare) arrow key until the message "NET" is no long-

er displayed or turn off the scale.
NOTE
The maximum weight which can be displayed is
reduced by the weight of the objects already
placed on the scale.
When you activate the HOLD function, the weight value
continues to be displayed after the weight has been
removed from the scale. As a result, you can attend to
the patient before recording the weight.
1. Ensure that the scale has no load.
2. Switch on the scale.
