Connect both pillars completely. Using the floor, push straight own on the upper pillar into the lower pillar. IF unable to connect, go to step 2. 6. Operation by AC aapter AC aapter is much preferable when the scale will be use continuously. 1) Insert the AC aapter jack into the AC aapter inlet on the back sie of isplay. 2) Plug the AC aapter into the outlet. WARNING In orer to reuce the risk of electric shock, never insert or remove the power coe with wet hans. CAUTION This equipment must be use with the inclue AC aapter only. 7. Operation by batteries CAUTION Do not grip the sliing height bar while pushing own on the upper pillar. Do not use a slippery floor surface. Use caution to avoi pinching fingers uring assembly. 1-1) 1-2) 1) When the batteries start to run low, Lo appears on the isplay panel as a warning. 2) Pull up the battery case which locate on top of isplay. All batteries shoul be immeiately replace with new ones at the same time. Do not use a combination of alkaline an manganese batteries, as such an arrangement may result in equipment failure. Rechargeable batteries are NOT recommene use. 3) Push own the battery case completely. Image * Insert new batteries such that the negative terminals of the batteries are pushe up against the coils within the battery case. 6 7

8. Operation 1. Stanar Weighing Proceures 3. Step on Function 1) Turn on the power by pressing the key. The scale will turn on automatically when the user steps onto the platform. Note: If the weight is less than 22lb/10kg, the Step-On function will not work. 2) After all the segments flash, [0.0lb/0.0kg] is isplaye. If person less than 22lb/10kg, press the key manually to turn on the scale. 3) The person to be weighe shoul still in the mile of the platform. If an item is place on the scale while it is powere off, accurate measurement will not be possible an the Step on Function may not operate properly. When measurement has been starte using the Step on Function, installing or removing the AC aapter, cable or batteries while power is off may prevent accurate measurement. Perform measurement after having presse the key an turne off the Step on Function. 4) The weight will be locke-in an isplaye on the isplay. (Hol) sign will appear in the upper left corner of the isplay. When the scale is connecte to an external evice, weight ata will be exporte at this time. 5) The scale will automatically shut off in 30 secons. Note: Do not press the key while staning on the scale, as accurate measurement will not be possible. 2. BMI Weighing 1) Turn on the power by pressing the key. 4.

Troubleshooting If you are concerne that the scale may not be functioning correctly, please check the following point before requesting repairs. Problem Nothing is isplaye when is presse. Lo is isplaye. Measurement is not accurate. key Check Points Check the connection of the AC aapter jack to the AC aapter inlet, an the connection of the AC aapter plug to the outlet. The batteries may be weak. Try an AC aapter or new LR6 (AA) batteries. Check the terminals of the batteries for contamination The batteries are running out. Please replace them immeiately or use the AC aapter. Check that all feet of scale are stable an on a har flat surface, carpeting epth shoul be kept to a minimum. After having steppe own from the scale an presse the key, perform the measurement again. Accurate measurement may be impossible if the prouct is use where there is excessive vibration. Try using the prouct in a ifferent place. The weight oes not stabilize OL is isplaye -OL is isplaye Error is isplaye The Top Hea Display Assembly is loose. Are you moving uring measurement? Is the measure weight within the range of weight measurement? During measurement, are you touching any part other than the hanrail, such as the height ro arm, switch, or another part? The range of weight (1000lb/450kg) is exceee. Was anything place on the scale before measurement? Check whether the cable between the platform an isplay is isconnecte, cut, or pinche. Retighten the four screws that attach the base to the Lower Pillar Assembly. 12 13
