OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS (CONT)
Tare Function
When using this scale, the weight of an object can be subtracted from the total weight in order
to determine the weight of the patient alone. The Tare Function (ZERO button) automatically
performs this subtraction.
1. With all weight off the scale, press the ON button to turn the scale on.
2. Wait until "0.0" LB or "0.0" KG appears on the display.
3. Place the object to be tared onto the weighing platform. The display will show a value for the
object's weight.
4. With the object remaining on the scale, press the ZERO button. The word "TARE" or
"UNDER" will appear on the display, followed by "0.0" LB or "0.0" KG.
5. Place the patient onto the scale with the tared item. The scale will automatically deduct the
weight of the object and only display the patient's weight.
6. With all the weight off the scale, "UNDER" will be temporarily displayed and then the display
will return to "0.0" LB or "0.0" KG.
7. Press ZERO after weighing process is complete to return to normal weighing mode.
