Measuring Your Weight on a Carpet
Please use the accessory add-on feet if you wish to use the Precision
Health Scale on a carpet.
Steps for Installing the Add-on Feet
1
Each add-on foot has two pins. Match
those pins to the holes on the scale leg
and insert firmly.
2
Place add-on feet on all four legs.
Note
Please be careful not to fall when using
the add-on feet.
We recommend using this scale on a
solid and level surface.
Before Measuring Your Weight
If you preset your height, the scale can calculate your Body Mass Index or
BMI. Refer to “Presetting Your Height” on page 6.
What is BMI:
Body Mass Index or BMI (kg/m
2
),
based on an individual’s height and
weight, is a helpful indicator of
underweight, overweight or obesity,
in adults.
According to the WHO (World
Health Organization) classification,
the BMI scores are as listed to the
right.
The scale can save weight data for two persons, 15 data for each, in memory
and display them later.
Refer to “Displaying Data Saved in Memory” on page 10.
