_Introduction
Guidance for Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC)
Use of this equipment adjacent to or stacked with other equipment should be avoided because it could result
in improper operation. If such use is necessary, this equipment and the other equipment should be observed
to verify that they are operating normally.
Use of accessories, transducers and cables other than those specified or provided by the manufacturer of
this equipment could result in increased electromagnetic emissions or decreased electromagnetic immunity of
this equipment and result in improper operation.
Portable RF communications equipment (including peripherals such as antenna cables and external
antennas) should be used no closer than 30cm (12inches) to any part of this equipment, including cables
specified by the manufacturer. Otherwise, degradation of the performance of this equipment could result.

What is the body composition?
The body composition of human body consists of moisture, protein, fat, and minerals in a certain ratio.
Total Body Water exists inside and outside the cell at the boundary of the cell membrane, and is regulated
and maintained within a certain range. Protein is a component that mainly forms the muscle layer with water
and is distributed throughout the whole body, including the extremities and intestines.
Lean fat mass is the sum of the body's non-fat components, that is, Soft Lean mass and bone mineral mass.
Fat Mass is stored in the subcutaneous and abdominal organs. It is decomposed and used as energy for
normal physiological functions. However, excess Fat mass can accumulate in the body and cause obesity.
A healthy person maintains a certain ratio of these body components, but conversely, an unhealthy person
may have an imbalance among body components, causing obesity, nutritional deficiencies, and osteoporosis.
What is obesity?
Several methods are used to diagnose obesity, the key to determining the degree of obesity is the amount
of Fat Mass. In general, obesity can be divided into ‘apparent obesity', which is overweight compared to
height, and 'hidden obesity', which has a high amount or ratio of Fat Mass. Therefore, although simple
obesity evaluation is possible through Body mass index (BMI), but percentage of body fat measured using an
impedance body fat analyzer can help for a more accurate diagnosis of obesity.
Necessity for body composition analysis
We can maintain a healthy body when human body components are harmonious and balanced, and the
imbalance in the amount and distribution of those components may be related to various diseases.
Impedance body fat analyzer is a device used for the purpose of analyzing the body composition constituting
the human body to understand the basic health condition and to prepare in advance against harmful factors
on health, which is one of the basic screening tools applied to the prevention and treatment of diseases.
Indicator for obesity judgment
• Percentage of Body Fat (%): It is the ratio of body fat to body weight. Finds the invisible obesity.
• Body Mass Index (kg/m
2
): Result of dividing weight by the square of height Has a strong relationship with
disease morbidity.
• Obesity Degree (%): It is a value indicating the degree of obesity of the current weight compared to the
standard weight.
Abdominal obesity
It is important not only to evaluate how much fat is accumulated in the body, such as percentage of body fat
or fat mass, but also to evaluate where in the body it is accumulated. Fat Mass is divided into subcutaneous
fat (stored under the skin) and visceral fat (stored between organs) according to the location where it is
accumulated.
WHR is the ratio of waist circumference to hip circumference, so it determines the body shape.
Segmental analysis
This device measures and evaluates body fat mass and soft lean mass in 5 segments of the right arm, left
arm, right leg, left leg, and trunk. Because the human body does not always maintain the correct symmetry,
rathern than questioning the slight difference, use it to evaluate how efficiently and positively you achieve
your goal by exercise rehabilitation treatment for increasing muscle strength or muscle mass based on the
initial analysis value.
