Using the measured results WARNING!
Patient hazard
This device is no diagnostic device. It simply assists the treating phy-
sician in establishing a diagnosis.
► In order to make a precise diagnosis and initiate therapeutic
measures, besides determination of the weight, further targeted
examinations must be set up by the physician, and their results must
be considered.
► The responsibility for diagnosis and treatment lies with the treating
physician.
NOTICE!
Inconsistent measuring results
►
Before you electronically save measurement values determined
using this device and use them further (e.g. in seca PC software or
in a hospital information system), make sure that the measurement
values are plausible.
► If measurement values are transmitted to seca PC software or a
hospital information system, make sure prior to further use that the
measurement values are plausible and are assigned to the correct
patient.
Dealing with packaging WARNING!
Risk of suffocation
Packaging material made of plastic foil (bags) is a choking hazard.
► Keep packaging material out of reach of children.
► In the event that the original packing material may not be available
anymore, only use plastic bags with security holes in order to reduce
the risk of suffocation. Use recyclable materials if possible.
NOTE
Keep the original packing material for future use (e.g. returning for
maintenance service).
