The marks will disappear one by one during the measurement; after five full cycles, the measurement will be complete.

m● Grab the grips (two locations) only after the body

weight figure on the display has stabilized.

● Do not step off the Weighting Platform until
the “	” symbols disappear completely.
● In cases when measurements of the body fat ratio
or the quantity of fat are abnormally small or the
error message (E01) is shown on the display, the
probable reason is that the soles of the feet and the
electrodes are not in full contact. Make sure you
step on the Weighing Platform so there is contact
between the electrodes and the soles of your feet.
If the problem is not solved this way, it is possible
that the soles of the feet have calluses and the
resistance is too great. Therefore, place about 0.5
ml of water on each of the four electrodes where
the feet touch before measurement.
