Storage and maintenance
The precision of the measured values and
service life of the unit depend on careful
use:
Important
•
The unit should be cleaned occasionally.
Do not use abrasive detergents and ne-
ver immerse the unit in water.
•
Ensure that no liquid gets on the scale.
Never dip the scale into water. Never
wash it under running water.
•
Do not place any objects on the scale
when it is not being used.
•
Protect the scale from impacts, mois-
ture, dust, chemicals, large changes in
temperature and sources of heat that
are too close (oven, radiator). Do not
press the buttons using excessive force
or with pointed objects.
•
Do not expose the scale to high tem-
peratures or strong electromagnetic
fields (e.g. mobile phones).

Warning
•
Swallowing batteries can be extremely
dangerous. Keep the batteries out of the
reach of small children. If a battery is
swallowed, get immediate medical help.

sion hazard!
Important
•
Batteries must not be recharged or reac-
tivated by other means, taken apart or
short-circuited.

used for an extended period of time.
This prevents damage that may occur
from leaks.

yourself, as otherwise proper function is
no longer guaranteed. Failure to observe
this regulation shall void the warranty.
