Replacing the Batteries

When the batteries run low, the “Lo” message will appear in the display window. When this message appears, be sure to replace the batteries immediately, since weak batteries will affect the accuracy of your readings.

New batteries will last for about one year if the scale is used once every day. The unit comes with trial batteries; their service life will be short.

Getting Accurate Readings

To get the most accurate absolute values, readings should be taken without clothing and under consistent conditions of hydration. If you do not undress, always remove your socks or stockings, and be sure the soles of your feet are clean before stepping on the measuring platform. Stand erect on the platform.

It is best to take readings at the same time of day. Try to wait about three hours after rising, eating, or hard exercise before taking measurements. While readings taken under other conditions may not have the same absolute values, they are accurate for determining the percentage of change as long as the readings are taken in a consistent manner. To monitor progress, compare weight and body fat percentage taken under the same conditions over a period of time.

Note: An accurate reading will not be possible if the soles of your feet are not clean, or if your knees are bent or you are in a sitting position.
