5.1 Pay attention to the instructions in the Operation Manual Carefully read this operation manual before setup and commissioning, even if you are already familiar with KERN balances. All language versions contain a non-binding translation. The original German is binding.
Change the alignment or distance of the device to the source of EMI. Install or use the chair scale MCC-M at a different location. Connect the chair scale MCC-M to a different power source.
IEC 61000-3-3 Do not put the chair scale MCC-M directly next to other devices and do not stack it with other devices. If this type of operation is necessary, observe the chair scale MCC-M to ensure normal operation in such an arrangement.
6.3 Electromagnetic noise immunity Guidelines and manufacturer’s declaration - electromagnetic noise immunity The chair scale MCC-M is designed for use in an electromagnetic environment that meets the requirements stated below. The customer or user of the medical electrical device must ensure that operation takes place in such an environment.
Page 17
If the measured field intensity at the location where the chair scale MCC-M is to be used exceeds the conformity level above, you should observe the chair scale MCC-M in order to ensure normal operation.
Recommended safety distances between portable and mobile HF telecommunication devices and the medical device The chair scale MCC-M is designed for use in an electromagnetic environment in which HF disturbance variables are controlled. The customer or user of the medical electrical device can help avoiding electromagnetic disturbances by keeping the minimum distance between portable and mobile HF telecommunication devices (transmitters) and the chair scale MCC-M –...
Keep all parts of the original packaging for a possibly required return. Only use original packaging for returning. Prior to dispatch disconnect all cables and remove loose/mobile parts. Reattach possibly supplied transport securing devices. Secure all parts against shifting and damage. MCC-M-BA-e-1211...
Remove the individual components of the balance or the complete balance from the packaging with care and install at the intended location. When using the power pack, ensure that the power cable does not produce a risk of stumbling. 8.3 Scope of delivery Balance Operating instructions Mains adapter Accessory Bag MCC-M-BA-e-1211...
Check if the air bubble of the level is within the prescribed circle. If the air bubble in the level is not within the prescribed circle, the wheel height has to be adjusted, see chap. 9.4.1. Check levelling regularly. MCC-M-BA-e-1211...

Power is supplied via the external mains adapter. The printed voltage must correspond to the local voltage. Only approved genuine KERN power supply units may be used in compliance with Directive EN 60601-1. The small sticker attached to the side of the display unit indicates the power port: The LED remains illuminated as long as the weighing scale remains connected to the mains.
