9. Incorrect measurement
If the scale detects an error during weighing, “
2
” or “
” appears in the display.
If you step onto the scale before “
0.0
” appears in the display, the scale will not operate properly.
Possible causes of errors
Remedy
– The maximum load-bearing capacity of 150 kg was
exceeded.
– Only weigh the maximum permissible weight.
– Not standing still.
– Stand as still as possible.
– The electrical resistance between the electrodes
and the soles of your feed is too high (e.g. with
heavily callused skin).
– Repeat weighing barefoot.
– Slightly moisten the soles of your feet if necessary. Re-
move the calluses on the soles of your feet if necessary.
– Your body fat lies outside the measurable range
(less than 5% or greater than 80%).
– Repeat weighing barefoot.
– Slightly moisten the soles of your feet if necessary.
– The proportion of water is outside the measurable
range (less than 43% or greater than 75%).
– Please repeat the measurement barefoot.
– Dampen the soles of your feet slightly.
10. Technical specifications
Model:
BG 13
Dimensions:
30 x 30 x 1.8 cm
Weight:
1549 g
Measurement range:
5-150 kg
Scale interval d:
The display can be read in increments of 0.1 kg.
Repetition accuracy:
The measuring tolerance for repeated measurements is +/- 0.4 kg (several
measurements in direct succession on the same scale with position of scale and
person the same as far as possible).
Absolute precision:
In comparison with a calibrated weight, the measured value is +/- (1% + 0.1kg),
e.g. at 40 kg this corresponds to +/- 0.5 kg; at 100 kg this corresponds to +/- 1.1
kg.
Subject to technical changes.
