E. Always weigh/use the scale on a hard and flat surface. When you are on the weighing platform, please keep still.
F. For children under 10 or adults over 100, the scale can only be used in regular weighing mode.
G. For adults over 70, body builders or people with extreme fitness levels, there may be deviations in the measured data.

Warnings

The body analysis weighing mode, called Bio electrical Impedance Analysis (BIA), which is used by this scale, determines your body fat proportion by transferring a harmless signal all the way through your body.
A. This scale provides body analysis measures for a majority of people, but people with the following condition should never use this scale under this weighing mode:

• Pregnant women
• Those with symptoms of edema
• Those on dialysis treatment
• Those who use heart pacemakers or other implanted medical devices

These people should only use a scale under the regular weighing mode, which will indicate only your body weight.
B. The fat and hydration percentages content evaluated by this body fat scale is only for reference (not for medical purpose). If your fat and hydration percentages content is over/below normal level, please consult your doctor for more advice.
C. Keep away from strong electro-magnetic fields when using the scale.

To install/replace batteries

Requires 2 AAA batteries (included)

1. Open battery case cover on the back of scale.
2. Take out the used batteries.
3. Install new batteries by putting one side of the battery then pressing down the other side. Please take note to the polarity.

• Do not dispose of batteries in fire. Batteries may explode or leak.
• Do not mix old and new batteries.
• Do not mix alkaline, standard (carbon-zinc), or rechargeable batteries.
• Please dispose the batteries according to local municipal regulations.

Setting weight unit

This scale is available in “kg” or “lb”. You can set to the one you prefer by pressing the unit conversion button on the back of the scale (picture shown on the right). Press the unit conversion button when scale is powered on. LCD shows current weight unit. Press the button again to convert to another weight unit.

After selecting the preferred unit, the scale will auto-off after 3 seconds. The selected weight unit will be activated the next time you turn on the scale.

• When setting “lb” as weight unit, the default height unit is feet/inch.
• When setting “kg” as weight unit, the default height unit is cm.

Key illustration
SET: Turn on the scale/Save parameters/Prompt to next parameter. (Please refer to the Setting personal parameter section)
: Advance the value by one interval each press. Hold down button to advance more quickly.
: Decrease the value by one interval each press. Hold down button to decrease more quickly.

LCD display

Regular weighing mode

(indicates body weight only)

1. Auto step on weighing
   

   Install batteries and place the scale on a hard and flat floor.| Step on scale slightly for a while and wait for weight reading display.| Reading result will flash after weight stabilized.

2. Consecutive add-on weighing
   After digits stabilize, additional loads can be added. Ensure each add-on load exceeds 4.4 lb (2 kg) to get a new reading.
   Example: If you want to get the weight of a baby, you can weigh yourself first, and then pick up the baby, without stepping off the scale. Then you will get the total weight reading. Subtracting the original reading from the new one will give you the baby’s weight.

Body Analysis Weighing Mode

(indicates body fat, hydration, muscle, bone, BMI and daily calorie intake)

1. Setting personal parameters
   ①. The first time you turn on your scale, the default parameters are set as follows: User| Gender| Height| Age
   ---|---|---|---
   1| Woman| 165 cm / 5’05.0”| 25

②. Parameters can be set in the following range:

③. Parameter setting
Example: the 3rd user, woman, 168 cm, 28 years old, can set her parameters as follow: Note:
• If while setting the parameters there are no entries for period of 6 seconds, the parameters already set will be automatically saved and body fat measuring will start.
• If body fat measuring starts before you had time to finish setting your parameters, press SET for 3 seconds to return to the setting mode. You will then be able to set you user code, gender, height and age.

2. To start weighing
   It is really important to remove your shoes and socks before stepping on the scale especially when you are using the scale in body analysis weighing mode. Assure that your feet are well positioned on the metallic sensors, otherwise the scale will not be able to determine your body composition.
   Example: the 3rd user, woman, 168 cm, 28 years old can measure as follow:

Warning indications

| Low battery indication
The battery power is running low. Please replace with new batteries.
---|---
| Overload indication
Maximum weight capacity is 330 lb / 150 kg. The weighing subject on the platform exceeds the maximum capability of the scale.
| Low Fat % Indication
The fat percentage is below the outlined performance index and therefore cannot be measured. Please consult a health care professional.
| High Fat % Indication
The fat percentage is above the outlined performance index and therefore cannot be measured. Please consult a health care professional.
| Re-test
Error exists, please step off the scale and start over.

BMI
Body mass index (BMI) is an international standard adopted to measure excess weight and obesity. This measurement is based on two variants: body weight and height. BMI estimates the degree of obesity and thus, makes it possible to assess the health risks (co-morbidity) associated with it.

Readings

1. Body Fat Percentage
   Body fat scale sends a small and completely harmless electrical current through your body. The electrical current passes more quickly through fat free tissue like muscle than it does through fat. The amount of resistance to the electrical current relates to how much fat-free mass a person has and their body density.

2. Understanding the readings
   Fat percentage is an index of fat content in human body.
   The same goes for hydration, bone and muscle.
   The information provided by the scale is for reference only.
   Consult your health care professional for more detailed information.

3. Fat/Hydration Content Fitness Assessment Chart
   After weighing, you can use the following Assessment Chart for reference: FAT %

   Gender| Age| Thin| Slim| Normal| Heavy| Overweight
   Man| 10 – 17| < 6%| < 9%| < 26%| < 30%| ≥ 30%
   18 – 39| < 6%| < 11%| < 22%| < 27%| ≥ 27%
   40 – 59| < 7%| < 12%| < 23%| < 28%| ≥ 28%
   ≥60| < 9%| < 14%| < 25%| < 30%| ≥ 30%
   Woman| 10 – 17| < 10%| < 20%| < 37%| < 41%| ≥ 41%
   18 – 39| < 11%| < 21%| < 35%| < 40%| ≥ 40%
   40 – 59| < 12%| < 22%| < 36%| < 41%| ≥ 41%
   ≥60| < 14%| < 24%| < 37%| < 42%| ≥ 42%
   HYDRATION %

   Gender| Low| Normal| High
   Man| < 50%| 50 ~ 65 %| > 65%
   Woman| < 45%| 45 ~ 60 %| > 60%
