Battery Installation ·
1. Use 3 AAA batteries (included. Remove any plastic wrap from the
batteries before proceeding). Always replace all batteries at the same
time; do not combine old and new batteries. Do not mix Alkaline, carbon-
zinc (standard) or Nickel-Cadmium (rechargeable) batteries.
2.
Remove the battery compartment cover on the bottom of the scale.
3.
Place the batteries into the battery compartments according to the"+"
and "-" polarity symbols at the bottom of the compartment.
4.
Replace the battery compartment cover.
5.
Replace all the batteries if "LO" is displayed and the scale says "Low
Battery", LCD readings grow dim or irregular, or the voice quality distorts
or becomes too soft to hear.
NOTE: Please recycle or dispose of batteries per local regulations.
WARNING: Batteries may pose a choking hazard. Do not let children handle
batteries.

General Operation
1. Install 3 AAA batteries (please see ''Battery Installation" section of this
manual). Also, some models have a static cling label on the lens to prevent
scratching. Remove before use.
2. Select language of English, Spanish, German, Greek or Croatian by
pressing the button on the side of the scale. The scale will speak the
corresponding language once the language is selected.
(Note: Pound units
of measurement will be spoken in English. Spanish, German, Greek and
Croatian will be spoken in kilograms.)
3. Select a volume level of high, low or off by moving the volume dial slide
switch on the side of the scale. To turn the voice function off, turn the dial
until it clicks off.
4.
Place scale on flat, hard surface. Carpeted or uneven floors may affect
accuracy.
5.
Press firmly on the scale platform. The scale turns on, beeps and says
"Ready for operation." This process insures the scale is set and is now
ready for use. Do this whenever the scale is moved. At all other times step
straight onto the scale.
6.
Step onto the scale platform and remain still. The display will count up to
your weight. The display will flash twice when the weight is locked. Your
weight is now displayed and you will hear your weight.
7.
When you step off of the scale, the scale will say "Ready for operation'
and automatically turn off. If you continue to stand on the scale, the scale
will beep twice and automatically turn off.
NOTE: If you've weighed yourself and the message "Err" is displayed with sound
"Error", simply step off of the scale and repeat the weight measurement
procedure while standing still. Your
weight cannot be locked in if you do not
stand still.
Trouble Shooting
1. Place your feet in the same position every time you weigh yourself.
Stand still during measurement.
2. Weigh yourself without clothing whenever possible. Clothes can vary in weight.
3. Move the scale to a location where it won't be bumped. If your scale is
bumped while being
activated or while in use, an inaccurate reading may
occur.
4. For the most consistent readings, weigh yourself at the same time of day.
5. The maximum capacity of this scale is 440 lb / 200 kg. Should "O-Ld"
appear on the displayduring a weighing, this indicates that the maximum
weighing capacity of the scale has been exceeded. Remove the weight
immediately; otherwise, permanent damage may occur
.

Precautions . .
1. Clean exposed parts with a soft, slightly damp cloth. To remove stains, use a
mild soap. Never use detergents, excess water, treated cloths, harsh cleaning
agents, or sprays. Do not attempt to lubricate or open scale casing.
2. Although your scale is designed to be maintenance-free, it contains sensitive
electronic parts. Avoid rough treatment. Do not drop, kick, or jump on it. Treat it
with care to ensure the best performance.
3. This scale is designed to read weights between 6.6 and 440 lb/ 3 and 200 kg. To
prevent damage do not place more than 440 lb / 200 kg on it.
4. Do not store scale where you store cleaning chemicals. The vapors from some
household products may affect the electronic components of your scale. Do not
store scale on its side.
5. This scale is an extremely sensitive weighing device. In order to prevent run
down of the battery, do not store anything on the scale.
6. Do not dispose of batteries in fire. Batteries may explode or leak. Do not mix
Alkaline, carbon- zinc (standard) or Nickel-Cadmium (rechargeable) batteries.
Remove the batteries if the scale will not be used for a long period of time.
