Scale
If the scale and the control unit do not function, remove
the batteries completely and reinsert them.
For instructions on changing the batteries, see p. 23.
Setting up the scale

surface is a prerequisite for a correct measurement.
6. Installing the control unit
Setting up the control unit
You can either hold the control unit in your hand, set it
on a level surface or keep it on the scale.
Slide out the tray (on the rear of the scale) as shown to
place the control unit on the scale. The tray contains a
magnet that fixes the control unit to the scale.
Wall mounting
The control unit can be mounted on the wall using the
mounting kit (wall holder, screws, wall plugs). Use the
mounting kit provided and install the wall holder as
shown. Use wall plugs that are suitable for the surface
onto which it is to be mounted.
• Use the wall holder as a template to mark where the
holes are to be drilled.
• Use a 6 mm drill to drill 2 holes in the wall that are
approximately 40 mm deep and 36 mm apart at the
same height.
• Insert the wall plugs.
• Use the two screws to screw the wall holder in place.
Check that it is firmly seated.
• Then slide the control unit onto the holder so that the
guides in the wall holder fit parallel into the guides in
the control unit.
First hold the control unit against the wall above
the wall holder and then slide the control unit down to
facilitate insertion.
• Slide the control unit fully onto the holder. Check that
the control unit is sitting securely and parallel on the
holder.
