Body fat measurement
With this device you may measure your body fat. However, we strongly recommend to consult your physician before
starting this body fat measurement in order to clarify if such a measurement by electrical current is suitable for you. If
misused or during power peaks measured values may be lost or can be displayed wrongly. A body fat measurement
is only possible after an exercise of before beginning an exercise (stop mode). Select the body fat mode (press
“body fat”). The console will ask you to enter your sex (fig. 21), age, height and weight just before measurement.
Keep holding both hands on the sensors throughout the following measurement (fig. 22)
– it will last approx. 8
seconds. After the measurement, the body fat percentage (fig. 23), the BMI (Body-Mass-Index, fig. 24) and a symbol
will be displayed for approx. 30 seconds.
Hints for the shown results:
Almost not one measurement of body fat will show the same results like before. Please keep in mind that (similar to
blood pressure measurement) the smallest movements or surrounding influences or also your daily constitution will
have a strong influence upon the results. So, it is normal if you have different results for one person within several
measurements. Therefore the shown results are always only indications to give you hints for your body constitution
and will help you to find the most effective way of training your body. The displayed values should only be regarded
as evidence of your physical condition in order to support you finding your individual best way of exercise.
Error messages:

“E-1” – no pulse has been detected.
„E-4“ – the body fat / BMI values are out of range (<5 or >50, fig. 26)
