Step on the weighing platform in bare feet. Make sure heels are placed on the posterior electrodes, and the front part of the feet are in contact with the anterior electrodes.

10.Measure the Impedance.

When the grips are grasped with both hands, will appear at the bottom of the display and the impedance measurement will begin.

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

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.

11.Measurement Is Completed.

Once the body weight and impedance measurements have been completed, the overall body fat percentage will be shown at the bottom of the display and a buzzer will sound.

If the printer is ON, the measurement results will be printed out. * With regard to the measurement result, please refer to P. 22.

If the printer is OFF, the measurement results (predicted muscle mass, fat mass, and body fat percentage) for each body part can be displayed using the ten-key pad.

Select the number of the desired body part on the ten-key pad.

2. Weight Measurement.

Step on the weighing platform. Weight will be displayed on the LCD.

3.When measuring is complete, press the [ OFFON ] key to turn off the power.

No printer is available when measuring weight only.

If body composition analysis is desired, turn

the unit off and then on, using the [ ON ]
