Low Battery
Your HoMedics® scale is equipped with a low battery indicator. It will display "Lo" or readings
will grow dim or become irregular if the batteries need replacement. Always replace all batteries
at the same time; do not mix old and new batteries. Do not mix alkaline, standard (carbon-zinc)
or rechargeable (ni-cad, ni-mh, etc.) batteries.
General Operation
1. This scale operates on 3 "AAA" batteries, which are included. Please see "Battery
Installation" section of this manual for installation instructions. Also, some models have a static
cling label on the lens to prevent scratching. Please remove before use.
2. The digital display of the scale has been set at the factory to read weight in pounds. You may
select kilograms units of measurement by pressing the "kg/lb" button on the bottom of the scale.
3. Place scale on flat, hard surface. Carpeted or uneven floors may affect accuracy.
4. Step on the scale (disregarding the reading) and step off. This process insures the scale is
set and is now ready for use. Do this whenever the scale is moved or after battery replacement.
At all other times step straight onto the scale.
5. Step onto the scale platform and remain still. The digital display will count up to your weight.
The display will flash three times when the weight is locked. The pointer will also move and lock
into place, indicating your weight on the dial. Your weight is now displayed.
6. If you step off of the scale, your weight will display for approximately 5 seconds, then the
display will turn off and the pointer will return to zero. If you continue to stand on the scale, your
weight will display for approximately 15 seconds, then the display will turn off and the pointer will
return to zero.
