• If the batteries in the device are depleted or the device will not be used for a long period of time, remove
the batteries to prevent damage or injury from possible battery leakage.
• Do not try to recharge batteries not intended to be recharged; they can overheat and rupture (follow bat-
tery manufacturer's directions.)

If present, remove the battery insulating strip or remove the battery's protective film and
insert the battery according to the polarity. If the scale fails to operate, remove the battery
completely and reinsert it. Replace the battery cover carefully.
A new battery will last for approximately 1 year if the unit is used three times per day.
The trial battery supplied with the unit may have a shorter life. Remove battery if you do not intend to use
the scale for longer periods before placing the device in storage.
Your scale is equipped with a "replace battery" indicator. When the scale is operated with a battery that is
too weak, "Lo" appears in the display field and the scale automatically switches off. The battery must be
replaced in this case (2 x CR2032 batteries).
