Some of the component parts are small enough to swallow, which can cause a child to choke and may result in serious personal injury or death.

  6. Keep the batteries out of reach of children.Four AAA batteries power the Wyze Scale. Secure the batteries used for Wyze Scale in a place that children cannot access. If swallowed, batteries can lodge in a child’s throat and cause them to choke or suffer from chemical burns, which can cause serious personal injury or death. If you suspect that a child has swallowed a battery, take that child to the emergency room immediately.

It could also result in other damage to the scale or nearby property.

  10. Do not get Wyze Scale wet.

    Your Wyze Scale is not waterproof. Do not get it wet. Clean only with a damp cloth. If your Wyze Scale gets wet, it could short out the batteries, which may cause electric shock, fire, or smoking, which could result in serious personal injury or death. It could also result in other damage to the scale or nearby property.
  11. Do not step on Wyze Scale when wet.Verify that the surface of the scale and your feet are dry before use. Using the scale while wet could cause you to slip, which could result in serious personal injury.

  12. Do not use Wyze Scale when the humidity is above 85 percent.Using or storing Wyze Scale in a room with 85 percent humidity or higher could cause the batteries to short out, causing electric shock, overheating, fire, or other damage to Wyze Scale, which could result in serious personal injury. It could also result in other damage to the scale or nearby property. Humidity above 85 percent could also cause condensation to collect on the scale, making it slippery.

  13. Do not use Wyze Scale on tiled, uneven, or wet floors.Before using your Wyze Scale, verify that the anti-slip pads are installed on its feet and that it is placed on an even, dry floor. Stepping on the scale when it is missing anti-slip pads or the floor is uneven or wet could cause the scale to tip, slide, or otherwise move out from under you, which could cause a fall and result in serious personal injury.
