Switching off the scale
– To switch off the scale, press the Start
key again.
Taring weight display (TARE)
The Tare function is very useful if an additional weight, e.g. that of a wheelchair, is to be
ignored for weighing purposes.
Proceed as follows:
– Press the Start key with no load on the
scale.
– First place the additional weight (e.g.
the wheelchair) on the scale and acti-
vate the Tare function by pressing and
holding the HOLD/TARE key.
The display is reset to zero,
0.0 flashes in
the display until weight is detected to be
stable. Only then is the Tare function ful-
ly activated. The note “NET” appears.
– Now move the patient and the wheel-
chair previously weighed onto the scale.
The scale determines the patient’s
weight.
You can now perform as many weigh-
ing operations as you like.
– Hold the key down again to deactivate
the Tare function; the scale is then back
in normal weighing mode and the tare
value has been erased.
– The tare value is likewise erased by the
scale being switched off.
