Care & Cleaning
In The Event Of A Problem:
In the event that a problem occurs,
Midmark Technical Support is ready to
assist you. In order to save time, please
check the following items before calling:
• Does the readout display have a
message that indicates what the
problem is? Refer to “Indicators”
at left for descriptions.
• Check all cables/connections.
• Unplug AC power and battery, then
plug-in again to reset the scale.
The Midmark Way™ scale platform
may be cleaned with any commercially
available product recommended for use
on stainless steel. Frequent cleaning
will prolong the life and help maintain
the natural luster of the stainless steel.
To prevent scratching, use a soft cloth
to clean the scale. If scrubbing is necessary, use a nylon or plastic type
scrubber. When cleaning, always rub in
the direction of the “grain” of the metal.
To remove minor scratches, we recommend using a 3M ScotchBrite® scouring pad rubbed lightly in the direction of
the “grain” of the metal.
Never use steel wool or steel
brushes when cleaning your plat-
form scale. Steel particles may become
embedded into the stainless steel and
cause rust.
Avoid use of chlorine bleach
for cleaning. Chlorides, bromides,
iodides and thiocyanates will cause
pitting, corrosion and discoloration of
the metal. If using bleach, clean thoroughly with water to completely remove
bleach residue.
Avoid excessive moisture.
The Midmark Way™ platform scale
contains electronic components that
may be damaged by excessive exposure to moisture. When cleaning or
mopping the floor, do not leave the
scale in standing water. For thorough
cleaning, the stainless steel platform
cover may be lifted off the scale base
and cleaned separately, away from electronic components.
