4. Setup

4.1 Unpacking

Carefully remove the scale from its packaging. Inspect for any visible damage. Retain packaging for future storage or transport if needed.

4.2 Placement

Place the scale on a firm, flat, and level surface. Avoid carpets, rugs, or uneven flooring, as these can lead to inaccurate readings.

4.3 Initial Calibration

Before first use, and periodically thereafter, the scale must be calibrated to zero. This ensures accuracy.

1. Place the scale on a flat, hard surface.
2. Observe the pointer on the dial. It should rest exactly on the '0' mark.
3. If the pointer is not at '0', locate the small calibration wheel underneath the scale.
4. Gently turn the calibration wheel until the pointer aligns precisely with the '0' mark.

5. Operating Instructions

5.1 Measuring Body Weight

1. Ensure the scale is placed on a hard, flat surface and is calibrated to '0'.
2. Step onto the center of the weighing platform with bare feet for best results.
3. Stand still and balanced. The pointer will move and settle on your weight.
4. Read your weight from the dial. The scale displays weight in both kilograms (kg) and pounds (lb).
5. Step off the scale. The pointer will return to '0'.

5.2 Reading the Dial and BMI Indication

The large 6.3-inch dial is designed for clear readability. It features dual units, with kilograms on the inner ring and pounds on the outer ring. The enlarged figures assist users of all heights in easily seeing the readings.

The outer ring of the dial includes a BMI color chart. To use this feature:

1. Align your height (in cm) with the zero mark on the weight pointer.
2. Step onto the scale and read your weight.
3. The weight pointer will fall within a colored BMI range on the outer ring. The green area indicates a healthy BMI range.

6. Maintenance

6.1 Cleaning

To clean the scale, wipe it with a damp cloth and a mild detergent. Do not use abrasive cleaners or immerse the scale in water. Ensure the scale is completely dry before storage or next use.

6.2 Storage

Store the scale in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Avoid placing heavy objects on the scale when not in use.

7. Troubleshooting

• Inaccurate Readings:
  • Ensure the scale is on a hard, flat, and level surface.
  • Re-calibrate the scale to '0' using the calibration wheel before each use.
  • Stand still and centered on the platform.
• Pointer Not Returning to Zero:
  • Check for any obstructions under or around the scale.
  • Adjust the calibration wheel to manually set the pointer to '0'.
• Scale Not Functioning:
