    The balance may only be used according to the described conditions. Other areas of use must be released by KERN in writing. Do not use the scales for determining body mass in medicine.
  • Page 10: Warranty

    In KERN’s accredited DKD calibration laboratory test weights and balances may be calibrated (return to the national standard) fast and at moderate cost. For balances with height measuring rods, we recommend a metrological examination of the accuracy of the height measuring rod, however, this is not mandatory as the determination of human body height involves rather large, intrinsic inaccuracies.
