Installing (or replacing) the batteries

1. Remove the battery cover on the back of the device.

2. Insert the 4 AAA batteries with the positive (+) and negative (-) terminals properly aligned with the corresponding symbols in the battery compartment.

3. Close the battery cover.

Caution

• Install each battery with the positive (+) and negative (-) terminals properly aligned with the corresponding symbols in the battery compartment.
• Improper installation of the batteries may cause battery leakage.
• Replace all four batteries with new ones, when the symbol is displayed. Do not mix new and used batteries. It may cause damage to the scale or shorten the battery life.
• Be sure to use AAA size alkaline batteries. Do not use any other type of battery.
• Never use rechargeable batteries with this scale.
• The battery life is dependent upon the environmental temperature, battery type and usage.
• The batteries provided with the device are for testing the scale performance and may have a limited life.
• Remove the batteries from the battery compartment, when the scale is not to be used for a long time. Storing the scale with the batteries installed may result in battery fluid leaking from the batteries, causing damage to the scale. The supplied batteries are for checking operation of the scale and may have a short lifespan.

Connecting to a mobile device (Pairing)

This scale needs to be registered with a receiver in order to use Bluetooth® communication with the receiver. The process of registering this scale with a receiver is known as pairing. When pairing is completed, measurement data from this scale is automatically sent to the paired device each time a measurement is made when the receiver is in the state in which it can receive transmissions.
Consult the receiver instruction manual and set it to enable pairing. If the receiver has a “pairing wizard”, use the wizard to complete pairing. Place the receiver and this scale as close as possible to carry out pairing.

1. Install four AAA size alkaline batteries into this scale.
   • For details, see “Installing (or replacing) the batteries” on page E-8.

2. Confirm that the scale is turned off, and press and hold the set switch.
   • When the set switch is continuously pressed, “Pr” is displayed.

3. Release the set switch when “Pr” is displayed.
   • “ ” flashes.
   • This scale is discoverable by the receiver.
   • Pairing can be skipped press the set switch when “Pr” is displayed.

4. Start pairing on the receiver.
   • Follow the pairing instructions for the receiver to search for, select and pair with this scale.

5. Confirm that “End” is displayed.
   Once paired, changing batteries should not require re-pairing.

Caution for Pairing

• Turn the power of other Bluetooth® devices off when performing pairing.
• If measurement data cannot be received, try pairing again. After pairing is complete, all communications are done automatically if the receiver is in the receivable state.
• In the unlikely event that this scale causes radio wave interference to another wireless station, either change the location where the scale is used or stop using the scale immediately.

Setting the Units

1. Confirm that the scale is turned off, and press the set switch.

2. Press the set switch to select the unit that you want to set.
   • The unit changes each time the set switch is pressed.
   • Wait for 3 seconds after setting the unit.

3. Confirm that “End” is displayed.
   • The settings are saved.
   • After three seconds of non-operation, the scale confirms the selected unit with two beeps, displays “End ” and automatically turns off.

4. If you to wish to delete any readings stored in memory press the set switch. Changing the units format will delete any stored readings on the scale.

Note: To see readings stored in memory they must be transferred to your mobile device and displayed in the app.

Taking a Measurement

Step On

1. Confirm that the scale is turned off, and step on the scale gently.
   • Measurement starts when you step on the scale.
   • A progress bar is displayed during measurement. SMART Stand up straight and remain as still as possible during measurement.

2. Step off the scale when “StEP” and “oFF” are alternately displayed with three beeps.
   • If you do not step off, the scale beeps every two seconds.
   • The scale turns off automatically after 2 minutes.
   • All display segments are indicated when you step off the scale.
   • Do not touch the scale while all display segments are displayed. It may cause misreading.

3. Confirm the measurement results. SMART
   • The scale turns off automatically 60 seconds after the measurement results are displayed.
   • Data is automatically sent to the receiver if the receiver is in the receivable state.
   • If the scale is not paired with a receiver, the data is stored in the scale memory. (See “Transmitting Temporarily Stored Data”.)
   • Data stored in the scale memory cannot be viewed on this scale.
   • You can also shut the power off by pressing the set switch.
   • The most recent readings will be shown on the screen.

Other Functions

Automatic Power Off Function
The scale has an “Automatic power-off” function. After the measurement results are displayed for 60 seconds, the scale is automatically turned off.

Transmitting Temporarily Stored Data
If measurement data cannot be sent to a receiver, this scale can temporarily store data of a maximum of 90 measurements in the built-in memory. When the scale is able to transmit to a receiver, all of the data is transmitted. If the amount of data temporarily stored exceeds 90 measurements, the oldest data is deleted and replaced with new data.

• Stored data cannot be viewed on this scale.
• The amount of data that can be temporarily stored may vary with the application.

Bluetooth® Transmission
This product is equipped with a Bluetooth® wireless function and can connect to the following Bluetooth® devices.

• iPhone, iPad, iPod ( iPhone 4S or later )
• Applications and devices that are compatible with Bluetooth LE

Each device needs an application to receive data. For connection methods, refer to the manual for each device.
To connect with your mobile device – download and install the “A&D Heart Track” app. Follow the instructions in the app to connect.

Ensuring a good connection

• Ensure the space between this scale and the receiver is unobstructed. The communication distance may be shortened due to the building construction or other obstructions. In particular, communication may not be possible through reinforced concrete walls, etc.
• Do not use the Bluetooth® connection near a wireless LAN or other wireless equipment, near devices that emit electro-magnetic waves such as microwave ovens, locations that have a large number of obstructions, or other poor environments for radio waves. It may cause the connection to be frequently interrupted, communication speeds to drop substantially, and errors to occur.
• If the scale does not communicate properly when used near a wireless device or broadcast station, change the location where it is used.

Caution

• The communication distance between this scale and the receiver is approximately 32 feet or 10 meters. This distance may become shorter due to the surrounding environment; therefore check that the distance is close enough for data to be transmitted after the measurement.

Time Settings
This scale has a built-in clock. The date and time of measurement are included in the measurement data. The clock is synced with the clock in the mobile device. There is no need to set the clock on the scale.
