CAUTION AND WARNING

To prevent injury and damage to your scale, please follow these instructions very carefully:

Do not transport the scale while platform is loaded.

For accurate weighing the scale must be placed on a flat, stable surface.

For accurate weighing, verify proper operation according to the procedure described in this manual before each use.

Do not use in the presence of flammable materials.

Operating at other voltages and frequencies than specified could damage the equipment.

If the “LOW BAT” indicator activates, for accurate weighing replace the batteries or connect the scale to an AC power source as soon as possible.

Only manufacturer’s qualified personnel shall service the scale.

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the EMC limits for the Medical Device Directive 93/42/EEC (EN 55011 Class A and EN 60601-1-2). These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a typical medical installation. The equipment generates, uses and may radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with these instructions, may cause harmful interference to other devices in the vicinity. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference with other devices, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to eliminate the interference by one or more of the following measures:

Reorient or relocate the receiving device.

Increase the separation between the equipment.

Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the other device(s) is connected.

Consult the manufacturer or field service technician for help.
