WARNING!
Electric shock
► Set up devices which can be operated with a power supply unit so
that the power supply socket is within easy reach and the power
supply can be disconnected quickly.
► Ensure that your local electricity supply matches the details on the
power supply unit.
► Never touch the power supply unit with wet hands.
► Do not use extension cables and multiple outlets.
► Ensure that cables are not crushed or damaged by sharp edges.
► Ensure that cables do not come into contact with hot objects.
► Do not operate the device at an altitude of more than 3000 m
above sea level.
► Only devices that are approved as medical devices and that have
no separate power supply may be connected to the USB interface.
WARNING!
Injury from device falling over
The device is intended as a mobile medical device and is therefore not
anchored permanently to a wall or the floor. Combinations of devices
with a handrail or measuring rod may fall over if not used properly (e.g.
as a "climbing frame").
► Do not leave children or persons with mental or motor impairments
unsupervised.
► Do not leave pets unsupervised.
WARNING!
Injury from falling
► Ensure that the device is steady and level.
► Route connector cables (if present) so that neither users nor the
patient can trip over them.
► The device is not designed for supporting patients when getting
up, e.g. from a wheelchair. Assist people with limited motor skills
when they are getting up, e.g. from a wheelchair.
► Ensure that the patient does not step directly onto or off the edges
of the weighing platform.
► Ensure that the patient steps onto and off the weighing platform
slowly and safely.
WARNING!
Risk of slipping
► Ensure that the patient standing area is dry before the patient steps
onto it.
► Ensure that the patient has dry feet before stepping onto the pa-
tient standing area.
► Ensure that the patient steps onto and off the patient standing area
slowly and safely.
