Precautions Please read this booklet before using your scale. Your scale contains delicate, high-precision parts. Avoid extremes in temperature, humidity, direct sunlight, shock, moisture and dust. Do not place your scale on a soft, wet or slippy floor. Place your scale on a solid and level floor. Do not step on your scale with your feet wet so as to prevent you from slipping and falling down. Step on the center portion of your scale gently. Do not step on the display window. Do not disassemble or modify your scale. Keep your scale free of dust and foreign materials. Holding the switch for extended periods will shorten battery life.

Installing (or Replacing) Batteries Caution Insert each battery with its positive (+) and negative (-) terminals properly aligned with the corresponding symbols in the battery compartment. If you fail these battery directions, it may cause battery leakage. Replace all four batteries with new ones, when the symbol appears flashing. When the batteries are completely depleted, nothing is displayed even if the switch is pressed. Do not mix used and new batteries. It may cause damage to the battery or scale, if used. The battery life is dependant upon the environmental temperature, battery type and usage. Remove the batteries from the battery compartment, when the scale is not to be used for a long time. They may leak and damage your scale. The battery life of the accessory batteries may be shorter than new ones.
Steps for Installing (or Replacing) Batteries 1 Remove the battery compartment cover on the underside of the scale by gently pushing the hook in the direction indicated by the arrow and lifting the cover backward.
2 Place four new batteries with the positive (+) and negative (-) terminals properly aligned with the corresponding symbols in the battery compartment.
