PROBLEM SOLVING & QUESTIONS
1. If the scale does not turn on?
Check if the scale is powered up and started up. If not, please refer to the
Operation Section “Battery Installation and First Time Setup”. Check batteries for
proper installation (polarities are correct).
2. If the scale displays “Lo”?
The batteries are running low. Replace all 3 worn batteries.
3. If the scale is inaccurate or weight varies?
Place feet in center of glass platform and stand still. Allow weight to lock in before
looking down at display. Flooring may a be reason for fluctuation. Use the scale on
the hardest floor available for accuracy. Do not move the scale unnecessarily.
4. If the scale displays “88888” for more than 6 seconds?
Calibration error. Step off the scale and wait until the scale automatically turns off.
Start the scale again by pressing firmly on the scale platform to re-calibrate the
scale. The display shows “0.0” and then turns off. The scale is ready for use again.
5. If the scale displays “Err” when measuring?
Overload warning. Remove the weight immediately; otherwise, permanent damage
to the scale will occur.
6. If the scale displays “Err 1” when estimating body fat and body water values?
Contact error. Impedance cannot be measured. Please make sure that you are
standing still on the scale and maintaining maximum contact between your feet
and the metal contacts. If not, please refer to “Operation” section. You may need to
moisten your feet to improve the electrical contact.
7. If the scale displays “Err L” when estimating body fat, body water, muscle
mass and bone mass values?
Estimated values are lower than the minimum values the scale can estimate.
Moistening your feet may help to improve the electrical contact.
8. If the scale displays “Err H” when estimating body fat, body water, muscle
mass and bone mass values?
Estimated values are higher than the maximum values the scale can estimate.
Moistening your feet may help to improve the electrical contact.
9. If after I tried the corrective actions above, I still can’t solve the problem …
If Error messages persist after following the corrective actions above, remove and
reinsert the batteries after 1 minute.
10. I have tried all corrective actions, but still can’t solve the problem …
Please contact the Taylor Customer Service Department at 866-843-3905.
11. Why do I get a different body fat reading when I use a different brand of
body fat scale?
Different body fat scales take estimations around different parts of the body and
use different mathematic algorithm to estimate the percentage of body fat. The best
advice is not to make comparisons from one device to another, but to use the same
device each time to monitor any change.
