English 1. Congratulations!
By purchasing the seca 955 electronic
chair scale, you have acquired a highly-ac -
curate and sturdy piece of equipment .

the service of health for over 150 years
now, and as market leader in many coun -
tries of the world, is always setting new
standards with its innovative develop -
ments for weighing and measuring.
In accordance with national regulations, the
seca 955 chair scale with standing aid is
used primarily in hospitals, doctors’ surger -
ies and in-patient nursing facilities . The
scale is a class I medical product and is
approved to CE class III.
Weight is determined within a few
seconds.
The seca 955 can be moved on castors
and its low power consumption combined
with its rechargeable batteries mean it will
provide long, mobile service.
seca 955 chair scales are made for peo -
ple who are not especially steady on their
feet. To give you a safe feeling while
weighing, the chair scale has a solid tubu -
lar frame and a firmly bolted seat. The free-
running casters make the scale very easy
to move. The wheel-locking lever, together
with the swiveling armrests and foot sup-
ports, makes it easier to sit in safety.
The scale is of a very sturdy construction
and will give you long and loyal service. It
is easy to operate and the large display is
easy to read.

Before using the new scale, please take a little time to read the following safety
instructions.
Warnings
• When adjusting the height of the screw
feet of the chair scale, ensure that the
screw is screwed at least 15 mm into
the frame. If you screw the screw foot
less than 15 mm into the frame, there is
a risk of the screw foot breaking off and
the occupant of the chair scale being
injured.
• Never use the seca 955 chair scale for
transport purposes. Do not use
seca 955 chair scale to transport peo-
ple or objects. If you transport people
or objects using the chair scale, there is
an acute risk of injury.
• Never place the seca 955 chair scale
on sloping surfaces. The brakes on the
casters could be released.
• Prevent the scale from rolling away ac-
cidentally. Use the wheel brake when
the patient is sitting down or getting up
and assist people who are unsteady on
their feet.
• When using the scale with a mains unit,
ensure that the supply cable is routed in
such a way as to exclude any type of
tripping hazard.
