Overriding recorded data protection feature

If another person’s PERSONAL key is selected by mistake and a measurement is taken, then incorrect data could be recorded to that PERSONAL key. In order to avoid this, when the unit detects a large weight change (of more than the previous weight multiplied by 1/16 ) within a two week period, the display will show “No” and will not measure. However, if a person has had a large weight change during this period of time, and wants to record the new measurement, follow the procedure below.

1.Turn on the power and take measurement

Using your toe, tap the PERSONAL key that has your preprogrammed data. Wait for “0.0 lb” to appear before stepping on the platform. Be sure that your toes and heels are correctly aligned with the toe and heel electrodes on the measuring platform. The unit will measure the values of body weight and body fat percentage (149.8 lb and 21.3%, respectively, in the example shown above).

2.Unit does not record measurements due to a significant weight change

If the change in body weight is more than the previous weight multiplied by 1/16, the unit will not record the measured values even if the Set button is pressed to record. “No” will flash in the display.

3.Reconfirm PERSONAL key and record measurement

Reconfirm that you are using your PERSONAL key, then measure again within 1 minute. Press the Set but- ton. “No” flashes in the

display. Then press the Set button again within 5 seconds. The unit will make two “beeps” to indicate that the measurement was recorded this time.

Note: The unit will record the values of body weight and body fat percentage only once for a certain date. If a person takes measurements several times a day, only the last values of body weight and body fat percentage will be recorded for the day within that 24 hour period.

4.Availability of previously recorded data

An arrow pointing to “WEEK” will flash, to indicate the availability of comparisons with previously recorded measurements.
