Safety Information

Please read and follow all instructions and safety guidelines in this manual.

Medical

  • This scale should not be used to diagnose or treat any medical condition.
  • Scale data should not be used as a substitute for medical advice from a healthcare professional.
  • If you are pregnant or have an internal medical device such as a pacemaker, turn on Zero-Current Mode in the VeSync app. This mode will disable the scale’s electrical current. Zero-Current Mode will not measure other health metrics and will only measure weight and BMI.

General Use

  • Check the scale before using. Do not use the scale if it is damaged in any way.

  • Do not strike or bang on the scale and do not use the scale if there is a crack on the glass. While tempered glass is stronger and fractures more safely than ordinary glass, it may shatter unexpectedly after developing a slight crack. If you see a crack, contact Customer Support (see page 26).

  • The glass platform is slippery when wet. Always make sure the platform and your feet are dry before stepping on for measurement.

  • Place the scale on a hard, flat surface to avoid tipping.

  • To weigh safely and accurately, stand with your feet shoulder- width apart while on the scale. Do not stand on the edge of the scale or jump on the scale.

  • Avoid standing on the scale for a long period of time, or when  ou are not weighing yourself.

  • Do not overload the scale. Maximum weight capacity is 400 lb / 28 st / 180 kg.

  • Keep the scale in a cool area with low humidity. Keep the scale away from heat sources, such as ovens or heaters.
    Avoid temperature fluctuations. Store the scale in a horizontal position, not vertical.

  • Do not use while charging. Remove the charging cable before using.

  • Handle with care.

  • Not for commercial use. Household use only.

  • Check if Zero-Current Mode is on. If it is, the smart fitness scale will provide measurements for only weight and BMI, not other metrics.
