Introductions
troubleshooting steps for inaccurate measurement
- A. Please try resetting the scale by taking one battery out for 5 seconds and putting it back in.
- B. Please calibrate the scale before measuring Step on the scale with one foot until the scale screen lights up. Then step off and wait for the screen to display “CAL”. When “0.00” is displayed, the scale is calibrated.
- C. Please test the accuracy of the scale by placing a 10-pound dumbbell(or an object with a known weight) on the scale and view the measurement. If the difference is out of the accuracy range, please take a photo for our reference.
- D. Everyone’s weight fluctuates throughout a typical day. Muscle usage and basic consumption of food and water will cause some weight fluctuation. Thus, if you weigh yourself multiple times during the day, you will see some differences. To minimize the fluctuations, weigh yourself at the same time each day (such as in the morning).
- E. Additional tips: a. Place the scale on a hard and flat surface. The unbalanced surface and softer floors such as carpets can cause inaccuracies. b. Check the legs/pads of the scale for any obstruction that may cause an imbalance c. During the measurement, try to keep your weight centred directly above the scale as much as possible. d. Try waiting for the scale to auto-shut off (about 10 seconds) before measuring again. e. Avoid moving the scale. Moving the scale frequently increases the risk of inaccuracy. f. Accuracy Range: 50kgs: ± 0.2kg (110lbs: ± 0.44lb) 100kgs: ± 0.3kg (220lbs: ± 0.66lb) 150kgs: ± 0.4kg (330lbs: ± 0.88lbs)
troubleshooting steps of getting accurate body fat%:
Please be informed that our scales use bio-electrical impedance analysis(BIA) technology to offer you the data. The data obtained by BIA bio-electric measurement is closely related to the following parameters: body impedance coefficient/height/weight/age/gender. Please check if you set up your profile correctly. A. Please be informed that teenagers under 18 cannot receive all 13 body composition metrics because they consume relatively more nutrition and are still growing. Currently, there is no standard evaluation system for body composition measurements for them. Thus, some bio-impedance data do not apply to them. Please find the following effective age ranges for each indicator for your reference. Body weight: Effective at any age BMI: ≥4 years old Body fat percentage, Body water percentage, Subcutaneous fat, Basal metabolic rate, Fat-free weight: ≥10 years old Visceral fat, Skeletal muscle percentage, Muscle mass, Bone Mass, Protein, Metabolic age: ≥18 years old
