Important Always reset the scale to zero after weighing the patient. Important The power conserving function will automatically turn off the display after 30 seconds when there is no weight on the scale. This can be changed – see section 3.07. 5. Carefully lower the user after reading the weight. Caution This device is intended to weigh patients during transfer (i.e.: bed to chair). In case the lifting height is reduced, it may be necessary to split the process in two. Start by weighing the user and remove the device, then make the final transfer (i.e. bed to chair). This device is NOT intended for use during patient transport and should be removed when moving a patient. 2.03
