If a user has been assigned, the BMI, body fat, water, muscle, bone, BMR and AMR are shown. This is the
case if the initials are shown.
The following appears:
1. Weight in kg with BMI
2. Body fat in % (BF)
3. Body water in %
4. Muscle percentage in %
5. Bone mass in kg
6. Basal metabolic rate in kcal (BMR)
7. Active metabolic rate in kcal (AMR)
Note:
If two or more users have potentially been recognised, the display switches between them.
Select your user by pressing the / button.
If no user is recognised, only the weight and “
” will be displayed. You can then use the / but-
tons to select your user. Otherwise the measurement will not be saved.
Only measuring weight
Now step onto the scale wearing shoes. Stand still with your weight distributed equally on both feet. The
scale begins to take measurements straight away.
If a user has been assigned, the BMI will be displayed. This is the case if the initials are shown.
If the user is not recognised, only the weight can be shown and no initials appear “
”.
Switching off the scale
The scale switches itself off automatically.

Values will often be lower for fitness enthusiasts. Depending on the sporting activities performed, the train-
ing intensity and the physical constitution, the results may still be below the stated standard values. Please
note, however, that there may be a risk to health in the case of extremely low values.
Body water content
The body water content in % is normally within the following ranges:
Male
Female
Age
Poor
Good
Very good
Age
Poor
Good
Very good
10–100
<50%
50–65%
>65%
10–100
<45%
45–60%
>60%
Body fat contains relatively little water, therefore body water content may be below the standard values in
persons with a high body fat percentage. On the other hand, endurance athletes may exceed the standard
values due to having low levels of fat and a high muscle percentage.
