Operating Instructions

Basic Weighing

To measure your weight only, simply step onto the scale. The scale will automatically turn on and display your weight. Step off once the reading stabilizes. For consistent results, ensure the scale is on a hard, flat surface.

Body Analysis Measurement

For body analysis measurements (body fat, body water, muscle mass, BMI, and daily calorie requirement), step onto the scale barefoot. Ensure your feet are positioned correctly on the electrodes. The scale will automatically recognize you based on your stored profile and display your weight, followed by the various body composition metrics. Remain still until all measurements are displayed.

Tips for Accurate Weighing

This infographic provides essential tips for accurate weighing. It addresses three common mistakes: 1) Incorrect calibration (moving the scale before measurement), 2) Incorrect surface (uneven surfaces like carpets), and 3) Inconsistent measurement conditions (weighing at different times or states). It advises placing the scale on an even, non-slip surface and weighing under consistent conditions, such as in the morning on an empty stomach.

• Calibration: Do not move the scale before weighing yourself. Wait until the device switches on and displays "0" before stepping on.
• Surface: Place your scale on a surface that is as even and non-slip as possible, such as tiles or parquet flooring, to avoid influencing the result. Uneven surfaces like carpets can distort measurements.
• Consistency: Make sure you always weigh yourself under the same conditions (at the same time, undressed, on an empty stomach), for example, in the morning after going to the toilet. Body weight can fluctuate by one or two kilograms during the day.

Care and Maintenance

• Clean the scale with a damp cloth and a mild household cleaner. Do not use abrasive cleaning agents or harsh chemicals.
• Do not immerse the scale in water or rinse it under running water.
• Store the scale in a dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
• If the scale will not be used for an extended period, remove the batteries to prevent leakage.

Troubleshooting

• Display shows 'Lo' or 'Err': This usually indicates low battery power. Replace all 3 AAA batteries with new ones.
• Inaccurate or inconsistent readings:
  • Ensure the scale is placed on a hard, flat, and stable surface. Carpets or uneven floors can affect accuracy.
  • Do not move the scale immediately before weighing.
  • Ensure your feet are clean and dry for proper contact with the electrodes during body analysis.
  • Weigh yourself at the same time of day and under similar conditions for consistent tracking.
• User not recognized for body analysis:
  • Verify that your user profile (gender, height, age) has been correctly set up and saved.
  • Ensure you are stepping onto the scale barefoot and standing still for a few seconds.
