not let the scale touch the wall or any other object near or around the scale while it is in use.
TAPE MEASURE
For your convenience, a measuring tape is included with the 553KL scale. You may affix the tape to either the bottom or side of the
weighing tray, depending on your preference for visually determining the length of the baby, up to 24" or 58cm.
INSTALLING BATTERIES
