RISK OF FIRE/BURNING AND/OR EXPLOSION
‚ There is a risk of explosion if the batteries are replaced improperly. Replace the
batteries only with one of the same or a similar type. Pay attention to the "Technical
data".
‚ Batteries must not be recharged, reactivated by other means, dismantled, thrown
into fire, or short-circuited. Otherwise, there is an increased risk of explosion and
leakage; furthermore, gases may escape!
‚ Avoid contact of the battery fluid with skin, eyes, and mucosa. In case of contact,
immediately rinse the affected areas with plenty of clean water and consult a doctor.
BEWARE OF MATERIAL DAMAGE
‚ Place the scale on a stable, even surface.
‚ Do not overload the scale. Pay attention to the "Technical data".
‚ Place objects on the scale exclusively for the purpose of weighing.
‚ Protect the scale from strong shocks and vibrations.
‚ Remove the batteries from the scales if they have been used up or if you are not
going to use the scales for a long time. You will thus avoid damage that may result
from leakage of battery acid.
‚ When inserting and changing batteries, pay attention to the correct polarity (+/-).
‚ Do not subject the battery to any extreme conditions, by – for example – storing it on
radiators or under direct sunlight. Increased risk of leakage!
‚ Clean the battery and device contacts, as needed, before inserting the battery.
‚ Do not alter the product or the mains adaptor. Only allow repairs to be carried out by
a specialist workshop. Repairs carried out improperly can considerably endanger the
user.
‚ Do not place the scale in the vicinity of devices that emit electromagnetic radiation
such as mobile phones, radio equipment, etc. This may result in incorrect display
indications or malfunctions.
‚ Do not place any objects on the scale if you are, for example, storing it in a cupboard.
The sensitive measuring electronics in the scale could be damaged by heavy objects.
‚ There are feet on the underside of the scale. Since surfaces are made from various
materials and are treated with diverse care products, it cannot be completely
excluded that some of these substances contain ingredients that attack and soften
the feet of the device. If necessary, place a non-slip pad under the scale.
