"0.0" KG.
5. Keep the object on the platform, and then ask the patient to step onto the scale as well. The
scale will automatically deduct the weight of the object and only display the patient's weight.
6. When you remove the item from the platform, "under" will be temporally displayed and then
the display will return to "0.0" LB or KG.
