The scale immediately begins with the meas-
urement. As long as the measured value is
being recorded, two dashes are shown on the
display instead of the weight (Fig. 4.7).
Fig. 4.7: Scale measuring
Important:
There must be no contact between your two
feet, legs, calves and thighs. Otherwise, the
measurement of the percentages cannot be
carried out correctly.
Your weight is measured first, and then,
based on the impedance measurement,
your other body data, such as body fat, body
water and muscle percentages. This may take
several seconds. Remain standing still on the
scale.
At the end of measurement, first your weight
will be displayed (Fig 4.8).
Fig. 4.8: Display of the weight
After about three seconds or when you tap
the START button with your foot, the percent-
age for the measured body fat, as well as the
corresponding trend, are displayed.
Here:
– Down arrow = percentage is less than at
the last measurement
– Dash = percentage is constant
– Up arrow = percentage is higher
After another three seconds or each time
after you tap on the START button, the next
percentage value is displayed according to
the set selection with the corresponding
trend display in the following order:
Body fat (Fig. 4.9), body water (Fig. 4.10),
muscle percentage (Fig. 4.11).
Only the values which were selected in
the settings menu (as described under
Section 3.5.3 “Selection of percentage
values to be displayed after a measurement”)
are displayed.
If the START button is pressed when the last
selected percentage is being displayed, the
measured weight appears again. Every three
seconds or every time the START button is
pressed, the values are displayed as described
before.
