HEIGHT MEASUREMENT INSTRUCTIONS
CAUTION: Use caution when sliding height rod up and down. The rod should move smoothly; do not move the rod in a jerking motion. Fold headpiece down when not in use.
Note: Patients must be a minimum of 23-5/8” (60 cm) tall for the height to be accurately measured.
1.With the headpiece in the folded down position, slide the headpiece up or down to the estimated height of the patient. Then raise the headpiece into its horizontal position. Note: For patients under 48.5” /
123 cm, slide the headpiece down the pillar.
2.Position the patient facing the display head.
Ensure that the patient’s posture is upright, and that the patient’s head is straight and level. Slide the headpiece down until it rests on the patient’s head.
3.Determine the patient’s height by reading the value on the measuring strip nearest to the line on the red indicator, as shown below. For heights greater than 48.5” / 123 cm, the height measurement is read at the red line on the pillar. For heights less than 48.5” / 123 cm, the height measurement is read at the red line on the headpiece.

MAINTENANCE
Maintenance
The following pages provide instructions for maintenance, cleaning, calibrating, and troubleshooting of the scale. Maintenance operations other than those described in this manual should be performed by qualified service personnel.
Caution: Before first use, or after long periods of non-use, check the scale for proper operation and function. If the scale does not operate correctly, refer to qualified service personnel.
1.Check overall appearance of the total scale for any obvious damage, wear, and tear.
2.Inspect the AC adapter cord for cracking or fraying, or for broken/bent prongs.
Note: This scale is an extremely sensitive weighing device. Items such as clothing or towels placed or dropped on the scale may cause a scale to activate. In order to prevent battery depletion, do not store or leave anything on the scale.
Cleaning and Disinfecting
Proper care and cleaning is essential to ensure a long life of accurate and effective weighing.
1.Health o meter® Professional recommends using one of the following solutions on a soft cloth or disposable wipe:
●mild soap and water solution
●70% isopropyl alcohol
●solution with 1-5% hydrogen peroxide concentration
After cleaning/disinfecting, wipe with a cloth dampened with water and then with a clean dry cloth. To avoid residue build-up or damp surfaces, ensure all scale parts are completely dry after cleaning.
2.Never use rough or abrasive materials to clean the scale, as these will damage the scale’s finish.
3.Do not submerge the scale in water or any other liquid.
4.Do not pour or spray fluids directly on the scale.

CALIBRATION
This scale has been factory calibrated, and does not require calibration prior to use.
If required, the scale can be calibrated. Calibration of your scale is performed using kilograms (KG) or pounds (LB), according to the units of measure used upon entering into the calibration path. When calibrating in pounds, a total of 500 lbs is required (or 300 lbs for newer models), applied in increments of 100 lb, 200 lb, 300 lb and 500 lb. If calibrating in kilograms, a total of 200 kg is required (or 120 kg for new models), applied in increments of 40 kg, 80 kg, 120 kg and 200 kg. THE 500KG CAN ONLY BE CALIBRATED IN KILOGRAMS.
Note: Only weights certified and traceable to national standards are to be used for calibration procedures.
*For scales with date codes higher than 1515, only 300 lb (120kg) of weights are required for calibration. Refer to the white label on the back of the display head to determine your scale’s date code. Example: Date Code 4215, calibration procedure is complete after 300 lb (120 kg).
