Thank you for your decision to purchase this high quality body analyser scale.
Please peruse read this instruction manual prior to first start up and keep this user
instruction careful so as to have this information on hand whenever it is needed.
1. How does the body analyser work?
Through this new revolutionary scale you will be able to get information about your
body composition with reference to your weight, body fat %, body water %, muscle
mass %, ideal weight, bone mass and your daily calories requirement. First of all
you have to enter once your personal data like gender, body height, age and sports
activity under your selected personal memory location. Afterwards a measurement
is as simple as on a normal bathroom scale. You have only to push your personal
memory location, step on the scale and within a few seconds your measured values
will be indicated. The analysis is based on the measurement of the bo
dy’s electrical
resistance. A low, safe electrical signal passes freely through fluids contained in
lean tissue, such as muscle and blood, but meets resistance passing through fat
tissue. The body analyser accurately measures the resistance and with reference to
your personal data use it to calculate elements of body composition.
2. How to use
If possible the measurement should be undressed but always barefoot.
By nature a body is subject of fluctuations (for example: loss of water after taking
exercise or after a sauna visit, food- or fluid intake, etc.). To enable comparable
readings it is important to take the measurements if possible always under the
same conditions.
In order to ensure that the results of analysis are accurate and consistent, please
keep the measurement conditions constant always at the same daytime. In the
morning, directly after you’ve woken up, your body will be dehydrated and also the
majority of fluid will be stored in the central trunk area. This means that the
resistance is relatively high because of the poor conductivity in the body. By
intensify moving during the day progresses the fluid becomes more evenly
distributed through the limbs and increasing the accuracy of the readings. To get a
realistic result it is important to take your readings at the same time and under the
same conditions every day. The easiest way to stick the rule, measure always in the
mor
ning, 15 minutes after you’ve got up, either before or after you’ve gone to the
bathroom.
In spite of a very low electrical signal, this body analyser is not suitable for
persons with heart pacemaker or other electronic medical implants!
There is
no risk for persons with none electronic implant for instance a titanium plate in the
knee. However, metal conducts the electric current extremely well and therefore the
scale implicates the body fat value
“beautified” – means the actual body fat value is
higher as indicated. However, tendencies may determine as well.
