Entering personal data
Before using the scale for the first time, you have to enter user-specific basic infor-
mation - gender, age and height. You can store 8 different user’s profiles.
1.
Press ”SET” to begin entering the user information. In the lower left corner of the
screen you will see a blinking P
n
(where
n
is a number between 1-8, automati-
cally being P1 the first time you perform this operation), which is the number
of the memory slot. You can change the memory slot by pressing ▲ or ▼, and
move to the next step by pressing ”SET”.
2.
Set the gender by pressing ▲ or ▼. You can choose either Man (top icon),
Woman (bottom icon) or as an extra setting, Athlete, by which the device uses
different criteria when analysing the data. You can only choose the Athlete
setting in conjunction with either gender. Move to the next step by pressing
”SET”.
3.
Next, enter your height by pressing ▲ or ▼. The height interval is 100 - 250 cm
(3’3.5” - 8’2.5”). You can switch between metric and Imperial values by press-
ing the measuring unit button on the bottom of the device. Move to the next
step by pressing ”SET”.
4.
Set your age by pressing ▲ or ▼. The age interval is 10 - 99 years. Finally, ac-
cept the settings by pressing ”SET”.
Measuring your weight and performing the body analysis
After entering the basic information, you can start measuring your weight and per-
form a body analysis if you so desire. The device performs the analysis by sending
harmless electric impulses into your body through the metal plates at the sides of
the weighing platform, and uses bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) to interpret
the data and display it in a readable format. The device can also recognise the
user based on the weight.
1.
When the scale is on, the reading 0.0 will be shown if no weight is applied to
the scale. The scale will automatically turn off if there is no operation for about
20 seconds. If the scale is not on, step on it once ore press any key.
2.
Choose your profile by pressing ▲ or ▼ and wait about 3 seconds for the scale
to reset to 0.0.
3.
Stand on the scale so that your feet are partially on the metal plates at the
sides of the weighing platform.
Note:
never step on the middle of the platform with your entire weight, as the
platform may shatter in a worst-case scenario.
4.
The scale shows your weight reading after a couple of seconds. If at this point
you want to perform the body analysis, stand still while the device scrolls ”0 0
0” from left to right at the bottom of the screen for two cycles. After this the de-
vice will show the body fat-, water- and muscle mass percentages and bone
mass according to the accrued data.
Weighing with automatic recognition or without a profile
The device can recognise a user by weight data and can choose the profile
automatically. You can also use the scale without the body analysis function and
entered user data as a traditional body scale.
1.
Start the scale as instructed, and stand on it. The scale will show the user’s
weight. If the scale is unable to recognise the user, the scale will automatically
turn off after about 6 seconds.
2.
After measuring the weight, the scale will attempt to recognise the user and
initiate the analysis.
