Here are 5 rules for effectively monitoring your weight: Weigh yourself:
• Once a week, on the same day of the week
• At the same time of day
• In the same place
• Wearing the same clothes
• Using the same scale
To keep track of your weight, record only one number for the week. This will
give you a clear picture of any trend your weight is following.
When You’re Maintaining Weight
Fluctuations in day-to-day weight tend to be smaller when weight is stable, so a more
frequent weigh-in pattern is helpful. To maintain a stable weight:
• Weigh yourself more often than once a week.
• Use the “5-pound rule” – research shows that people who keep weight within
a 5-pound range are more likely to maintain a healthy body weight over the
long term.
Facts You Should Know
Your Weight Watchers scale is a precise measuring instrument that is most
accurate when weighing a stationary object. To ensure accurate readings,
always try to stand on the same area of the scale platform and
DO NOT MOVE
.
Should the weight on the scale exceed the scale’s capacity, you may see an error
message ”ERR”.
Electronic sensors are sensitive. Be careful not to drop or jar the scale.
Place it gently onto floor surface, and store where it will be protected from impact.
The scale is an electronic instrument and should never be submerged in water.
Clean with damp cloth and/or glass cleaner.
Battery Replacement
If battery is low and needs to be replaced, “Lo” will appear on screen, remove the
screws from the battery cover on the bottom of the scale and remove the cover.
Replace the old battery with a new CR2032 battery. Clean the battery contacts
and also those of the device prior to battery installation. Ensure the battery is
installed correctly with regard to polarity (with the "+" side facing up), then replace
the battery cover and tighten the screws again. Remove used battery promptly.
Properly dispose of the old battery.
Dispose of the old battery properly.
Do not attempt to open the scale
or to remove any components. Servicing should be done by qualified
technicians only. See warranty information.
