1. IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTES
WARNING
• Intended use: the device is only intended for weighing humans and for recording your personal fitness
data. The device is only intended for private use and not for medical or commercial purposes. The device
must only be used for the purpose for which it was designed and in the manner specified in these instruc-
tions for use.
• The device may not be used by people with medical implants (e.g. pacemakers), as this
may affect their functionality.
• Do not use the device during pregnancy.
• Danger of tipping! Never place the scale on an uneven surface (see Figure
A
). Never step onto
the outer edge of the scale on just one side (see Figure
B
).
• Danger of slipping! Do not step onto the scale with wet feet (see Figure
B
). Do not step onto the scale
when the surface is wet. Do not step onto the scale wearing socks.
• Please note that measuring tolerances are possible for technical reasons as this scale is not calibrated for
use in a professional medical context.
• This scale works on the principle of B.I.A. (bioelectrical impedance analysis). When this measurement
of the electrical resistance (impedance) is considered alongside constants and/or individual values (age,
height, gender, activity level), the body fat percentage and other variables in the body can be calculated.
Please note that the values calculated by the diagnostic bathroom scale only represent an approximation
of the actual medical analytical values for the body. Only a specialist doctor can precisely establish the
body fat, body water, muscle percentage and bone structure using medical methods (e.g. computer to-
mography).
• Obtain professional advice from appropriately qualified personnel (e.g. a doctor) when undertaking any
treatment or diet to address being overweight or underweight. The health values determined using the
scale can assist the qualified personnel in their diagnoses.
• Inaccurate or implausible results may occur when determining body fat in children, performance athletes
or people with medical/physical limitations (e.g. oedema symptoms, osteoporosis, people who are taking
cardiovascular medication or medication which changes the vascular system, people with major anatom-
ical abnormalities on the legs).
• Repairs may only be carried out by Beurer Customer Services or authorised retailers. Never open the scale
yourself.
Safety notes on handling batteries
• Always insert the batteries correctly, taking into account the polarity (+ / -). Keep batteries clean and dry
and away from water. Always select the correct battery type.
• Never short-circuit batteries and battery compartment contacts.
• Never charge, forcibly discharge, heat, disassemble, deform, encapsulate or modify batteries.
• Never weld or solder on batteries.
• Never mix batteries of different manufacturers, capacities (new and used), size and type within a device.
• Risk of explosion! Failure to comply with the points mentioned above can result in personal injury, over-
heating, leakage, venting, breakage, explosion or fire.
• If a battery has leaked, put on protective gloves and clean the battery compartment with a dry cloth.
• If your skin or eyes come into contact with battery fluid, rinse the affected areas with water and seek
medical assistance.
• Choking hazard! Keep batteries out of the reach of children. Seek medical attention immediately if swal-
lowed.
• Never allow children to replace batteries without adult supervision.
• Store batteries away from metal objects in a well-ventilated, dry and cool place.
• Never expose batteries to direct sunlight or rain.
• Remove batteries from the device if it is not going to be used for a long period of time.
