7 GB/IE
Avoid extreme environmental
conditions and temperatures as
they may affect batteries e.g.
above radiators. Otherwise the
batteries are more likely to leak.
Exhausted or damaged
batteries can cause caus-
tic burns upon contact with the
skin. To avoid this, always wear
suitable protective gloves in these
circumstances!
Avoid contact with the skin, eyes
and mucous membranes if fluid
is leaking from a battery. If you
come into contact with corrosive
battery fluids, flush the affected
area thoroughly with clean
water and contact a doctor
immediately.
Remove the battery if you are
not going to use the device for
an extended period.
When inserting the battery, en-
sure the correct polarity! This is
shown in the battery compartment.
Remove a spent battery immedi-
ately from the device. There is
an increased danger of leaks!
Batteries must not be disposed
of in the normal domestic waste!
Every consumer is legally obliged
to dispose of batteries in the
proper manner!
Keep batteries away from children;
do not throw batteries in the fire,
short-circuit them or take them
apart.
If the above instructions are not
complied with, the battery may
discharge itself beyond its end
voltage. There is then a danger
of leaking. If the battery has
leaked inside your device, you
should remove it immediately in
order to prevent damage to the
device!
Before first use
Removing the insulation strips
Note: The product is supplied with the battery
already in place. Before first use pull the insulation
strip out from between the battery and the battery
compartment.
Preparing for use
Inserting the battery
See Fig. A 4 and 5 .
If the scales do not appear to work, check that
the battery has been inserted correctly and
reinsert it if necessary.
Note: The display indicates when it is time to
replace the battery. When you step on to the
scales and the battery is too weak, the LC display
shows “Lo” (see Fig. D) and the scales switch
off automatically.
If you see this message, replace the exhausted
battery with a new battery of the same type.
When you insert the battery, make sure that the
contacts do not get bent.
