Inserting the Batteries
Open the battery cover on the back of the measuring platform. Insert the supplied AA-batteries
as indicated.
Note:
Be sure that the polarity of the batteries is set properly. If the batteries are incorrectly positioned the
fluid may leak and damage floors. If you do not intend to use this unit for a long period of time, it is
advisable to remove the batteries before storage.
Positioning the Monitor
Place the measuring platform on a hard, flat surface where there is minimal vibration to ensure safe
and accurate measurement.
Note:
To avoid possible injury, do not step on the edge of the platform.
Attaching the Support Feet (Carpet Use Only)
Insert the support feet into the holes at the four corners on the bottom of the measuring platform.
Note:
Do not use the monitor on any carpeting that is more than 0.8" (20 mm) in thickness, and do not use
the support feet on hard, uncarpeted surfaces, as the unit may tip over.
Handling Tips
This monitor is a precision instrument utilizing state-of-the-art technology. To keep the unit in the best
condition, follow these instructions carefully:
• Do not attempt to disassemble the measuring platform.
• Store the unit horizontally, and place it so that the Personal keys will not be
pressed accidentally.
• Avoid excessive impact or vibration to the unit.
• Place the unit in an area free from direct sunlight, heating equipment, high humidity, or extreme
temperature change.
• Never submerge in water. Use alcohol to clean the electrodes and glass cleaner (applied
to a cloth first) to keep them shiny; avoid soaps.
