Seca 804 - Manual (Page 13)

Model 804 11 GB
Power supply
The scale is powered exclusively by batteries.
The LC display has a low power consumption – 8.000 weighing operations can be per-
formed with one set of batteries. When
or bAtt appear in the display, you should
change the batteries. You require 4 AAA-type 1.5 V batteries.
All the illustrations are on the foldout flap at the front.
– Carefully turn over the scale so that the
base of the scale is accessible (see Fig.
3
).
– Push the battery compartment closure
towards “Battery” and open the cover.
– Insert the new batteries in the battery
compartment.
Check that the polarity is correct.
– Close the cover.
– Then turn the scale back up the right
way.
Switching the weight display
The weight display can be switched between kilogrammes (kg) and pounds (lb) or be-
tween kilogrammes (kg) and stones (st) (see Fig. 2). Once you switch back on, weighing
will be performed using the new unit of measurement.
4. Setting up and aligning the scale
– Place the scale on a level surface.
– Ensure that only the feet of the scale
are in contact with the floor. The scale
may not be in contact at any other
point.
– If an uneven floor (e.g. thick-pile carpet)
contacts the base of the scale, push on
the carpet feet supplied (see Fig. 5).
5. Operation
Simple Weighing
– Step gently onto the scale (see Fig. 4).
The vibration switch starts the scale.
se(a , 8.8.8.8.8. and 0.00 appear con-
secutively in the display. The scale is
then automatically set to zero and
ready to use.
– If necessary, switch the weight display
(see “Switching the weight display” on
page 11).
– Stand on the scale and keep still.
Once weight has been determined, the
scale will also try to measure body
composition, which can be seen by the
symbol o moving across the display.
You can now simply get off the scale
(the scale will briefly show an error mes-
sage).
– Read the weighing result off the digital
display.
– If a load greater than 150 kg or 330.6 lb
is placed on the scale, St0P appears in
the display.
Automatic switch-off/economy mode
The scale switches off automatically after 20 seconds.
