cleaning & maintenance
The scale should be cleaned occasionally. Dirt and dust has
a tendency to collect on the rubber electrodes. Always stand
on the scale barefoot or wearing socks as the rubber surfaces
will quickly become dirty if you wear shoes. Use a damp cloth
to clean the scale. Do not use abrasive detergents and never
immerse the scale in water.
• Do not use aggressive solvents or cleaning agents!
• Never immerse the scale in water or any other liquids.
• Handle the scale with care, protect the scale from impact
with hard object and do not drop it.
Your scale is fitted with a change battery indicator. If the scale is
operating with batteries which are too weak, Lo appears on the
display and the scale will switch off automatically. In this case,
the batteries must be exchanged (4 x 1,5V). If necessary please
use a small screwdriver to remove the batteries.
Batteries can contain toxins that are harmful to health and
the environment. 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 containers mercury.
