CAUTION!
Incorrect measurement due to force shunt
Operation of the stadiometer affects the weight
display of the scale. Weight values which are
displayed during a height measurement do not
correspond to the patient's actual weight.
►
Ensure that you do not touch the scale whilst
weight is being measured.
►
Ensure that the patient does not touch either
the stadiometer or the column of the scale
whilst weight is being measured.
►
Only read off weight values before or after
measuring height.
