• Do not use the scale system reading as a reference for medical treatment. The scale system assists only in the
monitoring of the patient's weight variation.
• Do not set the scale to zero or weigh the patient when a support surface therapy is active. Motion from the support
surface functions may adversely affect the scale system performance.
• Always follow patient monitoring protocol to avoid patient injury. Power save mode is active after one hour on battery
power and no motion release switch activation. Bed exit, scale, and motion functions will not operate while the product is
in power save mode.
C C A A U U T T I I O O N N - - Always raise the siderails when the litter is in its full down position. This prevents the scale system from
weighing a patient inaccurately.
To weigh a patient:
1. Press and hold the S S c c a a l l e e button (A) (see Footboard control panel - Scale (page 37)) until R R e e l l e e a a s s e e B B u u t t t t o o n n appears
(Figure 28).
2. Release the S S c c a a l l e e button.
N N o o t t e e - - Do not touch the product when you weigh the patient (Figure 29).
