5.1 Batteries
If present, remove the battery insulating strip or remove the battery's protective film and insert the battery
according to the polarity. If the scale fails to operate, remove the battery completely and insert it again. Replace
the battery cover carefully. Your scale is equipped with a "replace battery" indicator. When the scale is oper-
ated with a battery that is too weak, "Lo" appears in the display field and the scale automatically switches off.
In this case the battery must be replaced (3 x 1.5 V batteries AAA).
New batteries will last for approximately two years if the unit is used three times per day. Trial batteries sup-
plied with the unit may have a shorter life. Remove the batteries if you do not intend to use the unit for a period
of three months or longer before placing the device in storage.
