English 1. Congratulations!
In the seca 665 electronic wheelchair
scale, you have purchased a high-preci-
sion yet sturdy piece of equipment.
seca has been putting its experience at
the service of health for over 150 years
now, and as market leader in many coun-
tries of the world, is always setting new
standards with its innovative develop-
ments for weighing and measuring.
In accordance with national regulations, the
seca 665 electronic wheelchair scale is
used primarily in hospitals, doctors’ surger-
ies and in-patient nursing facilities. The
scale is approved to CE class III.
The seca 665 has two weighing ranges
which can be selected. Weighing range 1
has a reduced maximum capacity but
greater display resolution, whilst weighing
range 2 allows you to use the maximum
load capacity of the scale. Weight is deter-
mined within a few seconds.
Using the Pre-Tare function, you can store
the weight of a wheelchair. This weight is
automatically deducted in the weighing
operation.
The two fold-away ramps allow the wheel-
chair-user to get on and off in comfort.
The fold-away column allows the scale to
be stored upright to save space.
The scale is of a very sturdy construction
and will give you long and loyal service. It
is easy to operate and the large display is
easy to read.
The seca 665 can be moved on castors
and its low power consumption combined
with its rechargeable batterie mean it will
provide long, mobile service.
2. Safety
Before using the new scale, please take a little time to read the following safety
instructions.
• Follow the instructions in the instruc-
tions for use.
• Keep the operating instructions and the
declaration of conformity in a safe
place.
• Do not drop the scale or subject it to
violent shocks.
• Lay the scale carefully in its position for
use.
• Secure the scale so that it does not fall
over when stored in the upright posi-
tion.
• When moving the scale in the upright
position, ensure that it does not fall
over.
• Be sure to use only the seca mains unit
supplied. Before plugging the mains
unit into a socket, check that the mains
voltage indicated on the mains unit
matches local mains voltage.
• When using the scale with a mains unit,
ensure that the supply cable is routed in
such a way as to exclude any type of
tripping hazard.
• Have scale serviced and re-calibrated
on a regular basis (see chapter entitled
“Maintenance” on page 28).
• Have repairs carried out only by author-
ised persons.
