General Weighing Information; Weighing When Switching The Scale On Without A Patient - HBM SLS Guide Rapide

4.2

General weighing information

S The patient to be weighed must sit without support in the load suspension
device (e.g. sling). Please note that the permissible total load of the scale
must not be exceeded.
S Neither the patient nor the suspension device must be touched during
weighing. The cradle should not swing back and forth.
S The weight value should only be read once the scale is at rest. This is
indicated when the kg weight unit shows continuously on the display.
S If there is too much patient movement to allow the display to come to a
standstill, modifying the filter setting as per section 7.2 can remedy the
situation.
