Battery Notes:
• Always purchase the correct size and grade of battery most suitable for the
intended use.
• Replace all batteries of a set at the same time.
• Do not mix old and new batteries. Do not mix alkaline and standard (carbon-zinc)
batteries. Do not use rechargeable (Ni-Cad, Ni-MH, etc.) batteries.
• Clean the battery contacts and also those of the device prior to battery installa-
tion.
• Ensure the batteries are installed correctly with regard to polarity (+ and -).
• Remove screw to open battery cover and remove old batteries. Remove batteries
from scale that is not to be used for an extended period of time.
• “Lo” will appear on the display if battery is low and needs to be replaced. Remove
and replace batteries.
When replacing the batteries, make sure you dispose of the old batteries in accor-
dance with applicable regulations. They should be disposed of in a location specifi-
cally designated for that purpose so they can be recycled safely and without posing
any risk for the environment. Do not burn or bury them.

Who should monitor bone mass?
Most people have no need to monitor bone mass, but certain groups – post-
menopausal women, men and women with certain diseases, and anyone who takes
medications that affect bone tissue – might want to watch for decreases in bone
mass. The bone mass reading is to be used as a guide only. Watch for trends over
time and contact your health-care provider for a more detailed explanation of the
readings and with any questions or concerns.
Important Information Concerning
Weight Management
Your scale is the best tool for monitoring weight. While not the only measure
of weight loss, scales are the most popular method used to gauge weight-loss
success. A scale measures the sum of your total body weight, which includes bone,
muscle, fat, and water.
Body weight fluctuates during the day, and from day to day, depending on a
variety of factors.
• Salt and carbohydrate intake can affect the body’s water retention.
• A large meal adds weight and can cause water retention.
• Dehydration from exercise, illness, or low fluid intake can result in weight loss.
• Muscle is also a factor. Heavy-duty resistance training can build muscle, which
can affect weight.
• The menstrual cycle can cause temporary weight gains and losses.
When You’re Losing Weight
It’s important not to put too much stock in the exact number on the scale,
because it can and will vary. This is especially true when you’re dieting. Small weight
gains and losses are common as your body adjusts to fewer calories and more
exercise.
Your scale is a valuable tool when used to track weight over a
period of weeks and months. Be aware that different scales often give different
results. The scale at your doctor’s office may show one weight, and your scale at
home another.
So don’t get too caught up with a single number.
Don’t Overdo It!
A surefire way to get overly concerned with your weight is to weigh yourself too
often. We generally recommend weighing yourself no more than once a week when
you’re dieting. Though it’s hard to stick to this pattern, it’s the best way to prevent
unnecessary concern with normal weight fluctuations, which are unrelated to your
weight-loss efforts. Regardless of your weighing habits, it’s important that you’re
consistent.
Here are 5 rules for effectively monitoring your weight – weigh yourself:
To keep track of your weight, record only one number for the week.
This will give you a clear picture of any trend your weight is following.
NOTE -
If the scale is on carpet, use the carpet feet and ensure they are properly
fitted. (Carpet pile depth should not exceed 10mm). If the scale is on a hard floor,
do not use the carpet feet.
When You’re Maintaining Weight
Fluctuations in day-to-day weight tend to be smaller when weight is stable,
so a more frequent weigh-in pattern is helpful. To maintain a stable weight:
• Weigh yourself more often than once a week
• Research shows that people who keep weight within a 2-3kg range are more
likely to maintain a healthy body weight over the long term.
Make the most of it!
To summarize, make the most of the body analysis feature by:
• Tracking change over time and not day to day.
• Using the same scale as much as possible.
• Being extra-consistent in the time of day, day of the week, time before or after
food and fluid consumption, before or after exercise, etc., when measuring
body composition.
While a scale can be a useful tool on your weight loss journey,
it’s not a complete program for losing weight.

Facts You Should Know
Your Weight Watchers scale is a precise measuring instrument that is most accurate
when weighing a stationary object. To ensure accurate readings, always try to stand
on the same area of the scale platform and
DO NOT MOVE
. Should the weight on
the scale exceed the scale’s capacity, you may see an error message ”Err.”
Electronic sensors are sensitive. Be careful not to drop or jar the scale. Place it
gently onto floor surface, and store where it will be protected from impact. The
scale is an electronic instrument and should never be submerged in water. Clean
with damp cloth and/or glass cleaner.
When the scale batteries need to be replaced (display shows “LO”), remove the
screw from the battery cover on the bottom of the scale and remove the cover.
Replace the old batteries with 3 new AAA batteries. Replace the battery cover and
tighten the screw again. Remove used batteries promptly.
Dispose of the old batteries properly. Remove batteries from equipment
that is not to be used for an extended period of time. Do not attempt to
open the scale or to remove any components. Servicing should be done by
qualified technicians only. See warranty information below.
• Once a week, on the same
day of the week
• At the same time of day
• In the same place
• Wearing the same clothes
• Using the same scale
