11. INFORMATION FOR THE CORRECT  DISPOSAL OF ELECTRICAL AND  ELECTRONIC APPLIANCES

At the end of its working 

life, the product must not 

be disposed of as urban 

waste. It must be taken to 

a special local authority 

differentiated waste 

collection centre or to a 

dealer providing this service. Disposing of 

a household appliance separately avoids 

possible negative consequences for the 

environment and health deriving from 

inappropriate disposal and enables the 

constituent materials to be recovered to 

obtain significant savings in energy and 

resources. 

To remind you that you must collaborate 

with a selective collection scheme, the 

symbol shown appears on the product 

warning you not to dispose of it in 

traditional refuse containers.

For further information, contact your local 

authority or the shop where you bought the 

product.

NOTE:

 When you activate the scales for 

the first time, if no reading appears or if 

the reading does not stabilise at 0, you 

can also press the   

  button.

10. MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING

1. 

These scales are a precision 

instrument. Make sure they receive no 

knocks. Do not store the scales with a 

weight on them for long periods.

2

  Always press the buttons gently. Do not 

use any sharp objects such as ballpoint 

pens to press them down.

3.

  If nothing appears on the screen when 

you switch on the scales using the  

 button, check the battery is 

inserted and correctly connected. If this 

is the case, the battery may have run 

down. Replace it with a new one.

4.

  Do not chemical solvents or abrasive 

substances to clean the scales. The 

use of a soft, dry cloth is recommended 

for cleaning the outer surface of the 

scales. DO NOT SUBMERGE THE 

SCALES IN WATER.

5.

  Always keep the scales away from 

heat sources, e.g. ovens, as this could 

deteriorate the buttons and damage 

the appliance.

6.

  When the scales are in use, keep 

them away from any electromagnetic 

interference (EMI), i.e. mobile phones, 

as this would affect their accuracy.

7.

  Remove the battery if the scales are 

likely to be out of use for some time.

8.

  These scales are for domestic use only. 

9.

  Always use the scales on a horizontal, 

firm surface. Do not use them on mats 

or carpets. 

10.

 Do not insert any foreign object into the 

openings of the scales.

11.

 Do not try to open the scales to repair 

them. This will invalidate the guarantee
