Introduction

The Rice Lake Neonatal Scale provides precise weighing of babies and neonates. Highly sophisticated

microprocessor technology allows accurate, reliable, and repeatable weighments every time. Movement

compensation technology eliminates errors caused by spontaneous movement of the baby and the weight display

can be displayed in pounds/ounces or in kilograms.  

This manual can be viewed and downloaded from the Rice Lake Weighing Systems web site at

www.ricelake.com/health. Rice Lake Weighing Systems is an ISO 9001 registered company

Figure 1-1. Rice Lake Neonatal Scale

With the Rice Lake Neonatal Scale, there are certain precautions that should be taken to prevent injury to the

baby and damage to your scale. Please follow these instructions carefully;

Do not transport the scale while the infant is on the weighing tray.

Do not drop the scale or subject it to violent shocks.

For accurate weighing, the scale must be placed on a flat, stable surface.

For accurate weighing, verify proper operation according to the procedure described in this manual

before each use.

Do not use around flammable liquids.

Operation at other voltages and frequencies than specified could damage your equipment.
