•This appliance has the built-in option to calculate the percentage of your body fat by using bioelectrical impedance techniques.

•This analysis measures the different conduc- tivity between the muscle mass and body mass formed by fat cells using very low-inten- sity electrical micro current that runs through the lower members of the body.

•The percentage body weight is calculated us- ing the procedure described above and also involves the following variables: height, age, gender and weight.

•Optimum results according to standards generally applied to adults:
