How does the scale work?
The fat monitor uses the method of body composition analysis, BIA (short for bioelectric
impedance analysis). BIA measures the resistance that is directly proportional to the fat in the body
while the current flow is weak and harmless. Source electrodes let the current in on one side and
detection electrodes detect this current on the other. For the purpose of analysis, data from the
BIA appliance, such as sex, age and height, are subsequently inserted into a software program.
The weight and body fat are calculated automatically. The weight and body fat are calculated
automatically. You will then find the percentage of fat and water in the body that is displayed in one
of the ranges in the Reference table and find out which group you fall into. The accuracy of the
scale depends on several variables of the user. We recommend making the weighing a routine,
always weigh yourself approximately at the same time of the day and under same conditions.
Important notes:
1) This scale requires you to weigh yourself barefoot for the reason of correct conductivity
during the body fat analysis.
2) Do not place the scale on an uneven surface or a surface covered with a carpet.
3)
Do not use the fat analysis feature on this scale if you are using one of the following
devices: pace maker, electrocardiograph and/or other medical device implanted in
the body or device used as support.
4) Excessive drinking, eating, exercising, health conditions, used medicaments, women‘s
menstruation cycle etc. influence the results of the analysis.
INSTRUCTIONS fOR USE
Your scale is fine electronic equipment. One of the things that are most difficult to weigh is human
body as it is always in motion. If you want to obtain reliable results, always try to step with your
feet at the same place on the scale and stand still (Fig. 1). If possible, weigh yourself at the same
time of the day (best in the morning) and also on the same place to get comparable results.
Remember that excessive clothes can increase your weight as well as eating and drinking before
weighing. Short–term weight fluctuation is generally attributed to loss of liquids.
A) Regular weighing mode
You can use this scale only for weight measuring. This is basic mode without body fat measuring.
Turn the scale on by stepping on the weighing surface. After a moment, the measured weight
flashes and the value remains displayed for several seconds.
Then the scale are switched off
automatically
.
B) Weighing and total body analysis mode
Setting (change) of personal data for the body fat and water analysis
Before the first analysis, it is necessary to put in personal data (sex, height and age) which will be
saved to the memory. It is possible to save data of 10 persons in the scale‘s memory.
The input data can be set and gradually changed in the following range:
Memory
Gender
Height
Age
0 – 9
male / female
75 – 225 cm
10 – 85
1. Press the
SET
button Number of memory will start the flash on the display (e.g.
1
).
2. Select the number of the memory (with button or ) to which you want to save the data for
the person to be weighed.
Confirm by pressing the
SET
button.
3. Set your sex with the or button:
