7.1 Display
7.2 Handling
The scale is provided with only one key (ON/OFF).
The purpose of this key is to switch on the scale, and switch it off by longer holding
the pressed key when the scale is switched on.
Height of digits on the 4-position LCD display is 15 mm.
8 Using the scale
1. When batteries are inserted and the ON/OFF key is pressed shortly, the test
of all display segments is carried out and then the 0.00 display will be shown.
2. Now a baby is to be laid down gently in the centre of the scale pan. Pay
attention whether baby feet are towards the rise of the scale pan.
3. When the weight is stable on the scale pan (> 1 kg), the display will flash for a
moment and the display value will be held for 12 seconds.
4. If you want to delete the saved value earlier, press the ON/OFF key. Then the
scale is operated in the normal weighing mode and shows the present weigh-
ing value.
5. To switch off the scale, press the ON/OFF key for 3 seconds. If the scale is
not switched off manually, it is switched off automatically after about 2 minutes
without change of the weighing value.
The scale is provided with the automatic taring function:
To weigh a baby without taking into account a weight of a blanket lying on the scale
pan, place a blanket or cushion on the scale pan before the scale is switched on.
When the scale is switched on, 0.00 value will be displayed and the weight, which
was lying on the scale pan before its switching on, will be tared.
