Unit of Measurement:

Scale Programming: The Health-o-meter®Professional Body Fat Monitor and Scale can be programmed to calculate the body fat composition of up to two different users. A few steps must be followed to input the user’s height, age and gender. Once the information is entered, it only needs to be reentered if there is a change to the data.

First, make sure the Health-o-meter®Professional Body Fat Monitor and Scale is in the “standby” mode. When it is in standby, the LCD display should be blank. If the LCD is not blank, simply wait several seconds without touching or moving the scale and the display will automatically shut off.
