BEWARE of material damage
‚ Place the scales on a stable, even surface.
‚ Do not overload the scales. Pay attention to the
"Technical Data".
‚ Place objects on the scales exclusively for the purpose
of weighing.
‚ Protect the scales from sharp jolts and vibrations.
‚ Remove the batteries from the scales if they have been
used up or if you are not going to use the scales for a
long time. You will thus avoid damage that may result
from the leakage of battery acid.
‚ When inserting and changing batteries, pay attention
to the correct polarity (+/-).
‚ Do not subject the batteries to extreme conditions by,
for example, storing them on heaters or under direct
sunlight. Increased risk of leakage!
‚ Clean the battery and device contacts, as needed,
before inserting the battery.
‚ Only insert batteries of the same type; do not use
different types or used and new batteries with each
other.
‚ Do not make any modifications to the item. Only allow
repairs to be carried out at a specialist workshop.
Repairs carried out incorrectly can considerably
endanger the user.
