1. Place the scale on a stable, firm surface. All four feet must be touching
the floor. Uneven and soft flooring affects measuring accuracy.
2. Always weigh yourself on the same scale, at the same place and at the
same time. Weigh yourself without clothing, before meals, preferably in
the morning before breakfast.
3. Switch on the scale with your foot by tapping it lightly close to the
display
. Wait a few seconds. The display will briefly show a row of 4
figure " 8 " and then " 0.0 kg ".
NOTE
Do not step onto the scale until the display shows " 0.0 kg "
Wrong or no weight data will be indicated if the scale is used
incorrectly.
4. Step carefully onto the scale. Place your feet flat and evenly on the scale's
standing area
. Do not move. Your weight is measured and dis-
played.
5. The scale switches off as soon as you step down from it.
NOTE
The scale will switch off automatically after approx. 6 seconds
if you have switched on the scale by tapping it with your foot
but do not perform a weight measurement whilst " 0.0 kg "
is displayed.
The following error messages may appear in the display:

following before contacting a service centre.
• Check whether the batteries have been inserted correctly.
• Check whether the correct unit of weight has been selected.
• Check whether the scales are freestanding on a solid and even surface.
They must not be touching a wall or any other object.
• Weigh yourself again and make sure that you only step on the scales
when " 0.0 kg " has appeared in the display.
