PERCENT BODY FAT MEASUREMENT

TO ESTIMATE PERCENT BODY FAT: (Is date correct? See page 17.)

The display will show a software version number (e.g. 7.25) and will then start a 15 second countdown. The display will show Sd.

2)Insert Light Wand into Optical Standard. Be sure the silver stripe on the Light Wand is aligned with the silver stripe from the Optical Standard.

3)Press the ZERO ADJUST Key.

The display will now show 0.0. The zero adjustment has been made.

4)Remove Light Wand from the Optical Standard.

Install the Light Shield on the Wand as shown in the sketch (allow the Wand to protrude from the edge of the shield by about 1/4 of an inch). The Light Shield was provided to ensure that no external light interferes with the estimation of percent body fat. Therefore, this shield should always be used when measuring percent body fat.
