Store weight value (HOLD)
You can also continue displaying the weight determined once the load has been removed.
This makes it possible to look after a patient first, before having to note the weight:
– Press the HOLD/2 in 1 key whilst the
load is on the scale.
"HOLD" appears in the digital display. The
display starts to flash, showing that the
scale is checking the stability of the weight
values. Only once stability prevails is the
displayed value stored. The value is stored
until the scale switches off automatically.
The triangle with the exclamation mark in-
dicates that this frozen display is an addi-
tional facility which is not subject to
calibration.
– The HOLD function can be switched off
by pressing the HOLD/2 in 1 key again.

appears in the display if the scale has
no load on it, otherwise the current weight.
The "HOLD" display vanishes.

which is considered ideal for health. The Body Mass Index applies only to adults: these
values are not relevant to children and young people.
