Measurement principle
These diagnostic scales use the principle of bioel-
ectrical impedance analysis (BIA). This enables
body parts to be measured within a few seconds
using a non-perceivable, completely harmless and
safe current.
By measuring the electrical resistance (impedance)
and factoring in constants or individual values (age,
height, gender, activity level), the body fat percent-
age and other values can be determined approxi-
mately. Muscle tissue and water have good electrical
conductivity, hence little resistance. Bone and fatty
tissue on the other hand have a low conductivity,
as the fat cells and bones hardly conduct the cur-
rent due to their high resistance.
Please note, the values determined by the diagnostic
scales are only approximate values of the body‘s
medical, actual analytical values. Only a medical
specialist can determine the exact body fat or wa-
ter content percentages, the muscle mass or the
bone structure through medical procedures (e.g.
computer tomography).
Please note, due to the technology used measuring
tolerances may occur, as these are not calibrated
diagnostic scales for professional, medical purposes.
Initial use
Verify the parts listed in the scope of delivery
are complete.
Remove all packaging material.
Inserting / replacing batteries
The batteries must be inserted prior to initial use.
Note: If the product does not respond, remove
and reinsert the batteries.
Open the battery cover (see Fig. A).
Insert the three included batteries (with the cor-
rect polarity) in the battery compartment
6
.
Please note the marking inside the battery
compartment
6
.
Close the battery cover until you hear it
engage.
Note: The LC-display
1
will show “USE APP“
for approx. 10 minutes.
Setting up the
diagnostic scales
Place the product on a level, solid
surface. The product is not suitable
for use on carpeted floors. A solid
floor covering is required to ensure accurate
values.
Set-up with the
“HealthForYou“ app
Download the free app “HealthForYou“ from the
Apple App Store and Google Play.
Activate
Bluetooth ®
in the smartphone settings.
To be able to connect to Bluetooth
®
, be sure to
keep your smartphone /tablet within the
Bluetooth
®
range of the product.
Install “HealthForYou“ from the Apple App
Store / Google Play.
Start the app and follow the instructions. Select
the scales in the settings menu of the app. A
randomly generated six-digit PIN code will be
shown on the display on the scales (see fig. C).
This is made up of the initials display
17
and
measurements display
16
. At the same time, an
entry field (pairing request) will appear on your
smartphone, where you should enter this six-
digit PIN code.
You will need to enter the following information
in the “HealthForYou“ app:
User data Configuration Options
Initials up to 3 letters or numbers
(for up to 8 users)
Body height 100 to 220 cm
(3‘ 3.5“ to 7' 2.5“)
Birthday Year, month, day
Gender Male ( ), female ( )
