Store the unit in a cool, dry place. PRODUCT DESCRIPTION Control Panel Box The 4800 control panel keypad has four membrane switches. The POUNDS, KILOS, and ZERO switches have both primary and secondary functions listed below. Only the primary functions are listed on the switch.
To reweigh the patient, simply depress the Zero switch. 4. Average Weight: In most cases, the 4800 Scale displays an actual weight based on a series of consistent stable measurements. However, if the wheelchair/patient keeps moving, the scale may not get the readings required to give a “stable weight.”...
Taking a Weight Measurement 1. Turn scale on. Wait for the display to show “0.” 2. Wheel the patient onto the scale platform. Then lock the wheels to prevent rolling during weighing. 3. The moving dashes will lock in and display the weight measurement.
