3. Initial Power On: The scale features automatic switch-on. Simply step onto the weighing surface to activate it.
4. Unit Selection: To change the unit of measurement (kg/lb/st), locate the unit switch on the underside of the scale or use the 'SET' button if available on the display.
5. User Profile Setup: The scale supports 10 user memories. To set up a user profile, press the 'SET' button. Use the arrow buttons to input personal data such as age, height, gender, and activity level (1-5). Confirm each entry with the 'SET' button.

Operating Instructions

1. Weighing: Step onto the scale barefoot. Ensure your feet are positioned on the brushed stainless steel electrodes for diagnostic measurements. The scale will automatically switch on and display your weight.
2. Diagnostic Measurement: After displaying your weight, the scale will proceed to calculate body fat, body water, muscle percentage, and BMI. Remain still until all measurements are displayed.
3. User Recognition: If multiple user profiles are set up, the scale will attempt to recognize the user based on their weight. If recognition is successful, the stored personal data will be used for diagnostic calculations.
4. Reading the Display: The scale features an extra-large LCD display with a digit size of 38 mm for clear readability.

Maintenance

• Cleaning: Clean the scale surface with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Do not use abrasive cleaning agents or immerse the scale in water.
• Battery Replacement: When the battery indicator appears on the display, replace the 3V CR 2032 Lithium Metal battery.
• Storage: Store the scale in a dry place, away from extreme temperatures and direct sunlight.

Troubleshooting

• "Err" or Overload Indication: If the display shows "Err" or an overload symbol, it indicates that the maximum weight capacity of 150 kg has been exceeded. Step off the scale immediately to prevent damage.
• Inaccurate Readings: Ensure the scale is placed on a hard, flat surface. Avoid moving the scale between measurements. Ensure feet are clean and dry and positioned correctly on the electrodes for diagnostic measurements.
• No Display: Check if the battery is correctly inserted and has sufficient charge. Replace the battery if necessary.
