Thank you for your decision to purchase this high quality body analyser scale. Please
read this instruction manual prior to the start up and keep this user instruction careful
so as to have this information on hand whenever it is needed.
1. How does the body analyser work?
Through this new revolutionary scale you will be able to get information about your
body composition with reference to your weight, body fat %, body water %, muscle
mass %, ideal weight, bone mass and your daily calories requirement. First of all you
have to enter once your personal data like gender, body height, age and sports activity
under your selected personal memory location. Afterwards a measurement is as
simple as on a normal bathroom scale. You have only to push your personal memory
location, step on the scale and within a few seconds your measured values will be
indicated. The analysis is based on the measurement of the body
’
s electrical
resistance. A low, safe electrical signal passes freely through fluids contained in lean
tissue, such as muscle and blood, but meets resistance passing through fat tissue.
The body analyser accurately measures the resistance and with reference to your
personal data use it to calculate elements of body composition.
2. Conditions to use
If possible the measurement should be done undressed but always barefoot.
By nature a body is subject of fluctuations (for example: loss of water after taking
exercise or after a sauna visit, after a meal, etc.). To enable comparable readings it is
important to take the measurements if possible always under the same conditions.
In order to ensure that the results of analysis are accurate and consistent, please keep
the measurement conditions constant always at the same daytime. In the morning,
directly after you
’
ve woken up, your body will be dehydrated and also the majority of
fluid will be stored in the central trunk area. This means that the resistance is relatively
high because of the poor conductivity in the body. By intensify moving during the day
progresses the fluid becomes more evenly distributed through the limbs and
increasing the accuracy of the readings. To get a realistic result it is important to take
your readings at the same time and under the same conditions every day. The easiest
way to stick the rule, measure always in the morning, 15 minutes after you
’
ve got up,
either before or after you
’
ve gone to the bathroom.
In spite of a very low electrical signal, this body analyser is not suitable for
persons with heart pacemaker or other electronic medical implants!
There is no
risk for persons with none electronic implant for instance a titanium plate in the knee.
However, metal conducts the electric current extremely well and therefore the scale
implicates the body fat value
“
beautified
”
–
means the actual body fat value is higher
as indicated. However, tendencies may be determined as well.
There are no validated standards for muscle mass.
