ꢀ WARNING
DO NOT operate key strokes with pointed objects (e.g. pencils, pens, fingernails, etc.) Otherwise
damage to the key pad will result.
NOTE: The display will indicate the last weight that was measured. The word ʺLOCKʺ will be seen in the display
box.
NOTE: The ZERO key is pressed in order to avoid capturing the weight of the sling and the hardware. If the
ZERO key is not pressed the weight of the sling and the weight of the hardware will be included in the weight
displayed. NOT ZERO‐ING OUT WILL GIVE A FALSE READING OF THE USERʹS TRUE WEIGHT.
3. Press the ZERO key. When the ZERO key is pushed the following will happen:
A. The scale will reset to zero and the word ʺZEROʺ will appear in the display.
B. The lock function will then be turned off and the word ʺLOCKʺ will disappear from the display.
NOTE: The scale is now active and continually updating the weight display.
4. Place the patient in the sling. For patient placement instructions refer to Operation in the Jasmine
Patient Lift Owner’s Manual, Invacare P/N 1150704.
5. Activate the lift mechanism to raise the patient until they are completely supported by the lift. For
patient lifting instructions, refer to Lifting the Patient in the Jasmine Patient Lift Owner’s Manual,
Invacare P/N 1150704.
6. Note the weight display.
7. When the weight display becomes stable press the LOCK button to lock the weight display. This will
be indicated by the word ʺLOCKʺ appearing in the display window.
NOTE: Should it be necessary to unlock the weight while the patient is still supported by the lift, the UNLOCK
button may be pressed. The weight will unlock and the word ʺLOCKʺ will disappear from the display window.
The weight value will then be updated. Once the weight becomes stable the weight can be locked again by pressing
the LOCK button.
NOTE: Stable being defined as the weight fluctuating ± two tenths of a pound. For example, a patient weighing
one hundred lbs the scale will fluctuate between 99.8 and 100.2 until the LOCK key is pressed. Fluctuation of the
weight displayed is normal as noted above. Press the LOCK button to lock the weight.
NOTE: The UNITS button can be pressed to toggle between units of pounds and kilograms. This is indicated by
lb or kg appearing in the display window.
8. The lift may now be lowered and the sling removed from the patient.
NOTE: The patientʹs weight will continue to be seen in the display window. The display will turn off
automatically after a two minute period of non‐use [no changes in weight exceeding five pounds (2 kilograms)].
You can NOT adjust the time delay for automatic shut off. After the display has turned off, the weight may be
recalled by pressing the ON/OFF button. The unit can be turned off by pressing the ON/OFF button a second
time.
