CAUTION: Do not push Lb/Kg & On /Zero Buttons at the same time. Push all buttons with finger only. No pens or
sharp objects.
Seven Key Steps To Get Accurate and Consistent Weights:
1) The lower carrier and chair must not be touching the tub or anything else. The front casters must be in the
locked position. All four casters must be on a consistent level floor surface.
2) Before you transfer the resident onto the chair push the zero button below the scale display window to zero out
the weight of the chair.
3) The chair must be all the way forward on the lower carrier and locked into position.
4) The lower carrier arm must be rotated all the way up and out of the way in a position so that it is not touching the
resident or the chair back.
5) Transfer the resident onto the chair and position them in an upright stable position. If the resident is not upright,
unstable or moving around wait until they settle down or secure them with the security belt per procedures in this
manual.
6) Make sure the leg rest is be rotated all the way up so that the resident's feet are off of the floor.
7) The resident's weight will appear in the display automatically. Make sure no one is touching or leaning on the
chair including your self during the weighing procedure.
If you accomplish the above seven steps every time you weigh someone you will help assure getting an
accurate weight.
