How to Insert Bathroom Spare Scale Battery and Date

By Gary Boutin

Supplies and Tools:
New battery
White sticker 
Felt pen

How can you tell when it's time to change the battery? Well the first clue is the scale does not work or is there another way.

This post shows the two steps needed to keep a spare battery for the scale and the date the battery needs to be replaced. 

Step 1: Fig.1 shows the back of the scale. On the back side of the weight scale is the spare battery, its the round circled taped on the left side of the scale. This scale will need to replace the battery in January 22, 2012.
Step 2: Fig.2 shows the front of the scale. So next time the scale dies the back up battery is on the back plus a date to give an indication of how long the battery was in use written with a felt tip pen.
