  • Batteries not intended for this purpose must not be charged.
  • Remove the batteries if you will not be using the appliance for a long time.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

Your scale is fine electronic equipment. One of the things that are most difficult to weigh is the human body as it is always in motion. If you want to obtain reliable results, always try to step with your feet at the same place on the scale and stand still. If possible, weigh yourself at the same time of the day (preferably in the morning) to obtain comparable results. Remember that excessive clothes can increase your weight as well as eating and drinking before weighing. Short-term weight fluctuation is generally attributed to loss of liquids.

STANDARD WEIGHT MEASUREMENT
Without the use of the VITAL BODY PLUS app in the Smart device, the scale can provide basic weight measurements as any other scale.

  • a) Gently step on the scale, then the scale will be automatically turned on. Stand evenly on the scale without moving and wait until your weight is shown on display.
  • b) Switch on the scale by tapping on the board of the scale with your foot and wait till „0.0“ appears on the display.

When „0.0“ appears on the scale, step on them and stand still. After a moment, the measured weight flashes, and the value remains displayed for 7 seconds. Then the scale is switched off automatically.

Note

  • The scale is switched on automatically if you do not step on it within approx. 30 seconds after „0.0“ is displayed.
  • We recommend using the scale from about 8 kg of the subject.
