4. Batteries
If present, pull the battery insulating strip off the battery compartment cover or remove the battery's pro-
tective film and insert the battery according to the polarity. If the scale fails to operate, remove the battery
completely and insert it again. Your scale is equipped with a "replace battery" indicator. When the scale
is operated with a battery which is too weak, "L0" appears in the display field and the scale automatically
switches off. The battery must be replaced in this case (4 x 1.5 V battery AAA).
5. Operation
5.1 Weight measurement
Step onto the scale. Stand still with your weight distributed equally on both feet. The scale begins to take
measurements straight away. After flashing twice, the weight is established.
If you step off the weighing area, the scale switches off after a few seconds.

sonal settings.
