Your feet

Make sure that you are bare foot and that the soles of your feet are

 

clean.

 

Make sure that your feet are correctly positioned on the electrodes

 

and that you are standing with your weight evenly distributed on the

 

platform.

 

Remain still and do not move until the measurement is complete.

 

Make sure that the heels of both feet are on the heel electrodes.

The display will show your weight and then the weight result will blink. The indicators in the measurement progress bar at the bottom of the display will gradually appear, from left to right.

After measurement completes, your weight is displayed again. At this point you may step off the measurement platform.

After three seconds have passed since your weight was displayed, the three measurement results are automatically displayed repeatedly in the following order:

WEIGHT -> %FAT -> BMI -> WEIGHT (again).

Refer to section 5.3 on how to interpret the %FAT and BMI results.

Note: Although the age setting can be set to between 18 and 80 years, the %FAT reading will only be displayed for ages between 20 and 79 years.

Notes on Viewing Measurement Results

If you press the GUEST/MEMORY button, the previous measurement results are displayed and the memory indicator is displayed. To display the current measurement results, press the GUEST/MEMORY button again.

If you press the button while the three measurement results are being displayed

automatically, the display mode changes to show the results with each press of the button.

• If you do not press any button within five minutes of the measurement results appearing on the display, the unit will automatically turn itself off.
