Weighing with a “step-on”-function

Before you can use the scale, pull the insulating strip out of the battery compartment on the underside of the scale.
Make sure the scales are on a firm, level surface. If you only want to weigh yourself but have moved the scales just before, you must first initialize the scales. To do this, press your foot on the middle of the surface of the scales. “0.0 kg” appears in the display. When the scales switch off, they are ready for the “step-on” function.

1. Simply stand on the scales bare-foot (without socks or similar).
2. Your weight is shown.

Setting the personal data in the scales / Weighing with body analysis
The scales can store the data (gender, athlete mode, height, age) for 8 people with up to 30 memory locations each. The values preset in the scales are: Male, 165 cm, 30 years old, kg.

1. Press the ON/OFF sensor button shortly.
2. Select desired memory location with buttons “+” and “-“. Memory location “P0” is used for “guest mode”. No data will be saved when using “P0”.
3. Press “OK” to confirm your selection.
4. Now the symbols for gender/ athletic condition are flashing. Select with “+” or “-” and con-firm with “OK”. If you have already saved your personal data before, steps 3, 4 and 5 do not apply. After selecting a memory location the stored data is shown one after another. Proceed with step 6.
5. Enter your height, age and your target weight. Change numbers by pressing “+” and “-“. Confirm every step with “OK”.
6. Displays shows “- – – – -” and then “0.0 kg”. Stand on the scales barefoot (without socks or similar).
7. Your weight is shown. Then body analysis is conducted. After a few seconds the display shows the following measurements:

• Actual weight
• Difference between actual weight and target weight (see Target weight function)
• BMI
• KCAL (caloric needs)
• Proportion body fat
• Proportion muscle mass
• Proportion body water

Troubleshooting

O-LD = The scale is overloaded; LO = The battery is low and must be replaced. ERR/ERR2 = Body analysis could not be completed. “—–“ = get off the scales first and wait until the device has turned off. Restart a measurement afterward. “□□□□□” = bodyfat analysis in progress. Do not get off the scales during this measurement process! The measurement is finished when the display shows the correct weight.
If your personal scales do not function to your satisfaction, check the following before contacting a service center:

• Check whether the batteries have been inserted correctly.
• Check whether the correct unit of weight has been selected.
• Check whether the scales are freestanding on a solid and even surface. They must not be touching a wall or any other object.
• Weigh yourself again.
