Thank you for your HoMedics Digital Glass Scale purchase. This, like the entire
HoMedics product line, is built with high-quality craftsmanship to provide years of
dependable service. We hope you will find it to be the finest product of its kind.
First Time Setup
1. This scale operates on one lithium CR2032 battery (pre-installed). There is a red strip
under the lithium battery to prevent battery drain in shipping. Remove the red strip
before continuing with these instructions.
2. Some models have a static cling label on the lens to prevent scratching.
Remove before use.
3. Set the "LB/KG" unit of measure switch located on the back of the scale for
pounds or kilograms.
Note: The switch is pre-set to pounds.
4. The scale needs to be initialized before first use or after battery replacement. Press
lightly on the scale platform. The display will turn on, and automatically turn off. The
scale is now ready for use.
Note: The scale may need to be initialized if it is moved or bumped.
General Operation
1. Place the scale on a flat, hard surface. Carpeted or uneven floors may affect accuracy.
2. Step on the scale, positioning your feet evenly on the scale platform.
Stand still while the scale measures your weight.
3. When your weight stabilizes, the display will show your weight. The weight reading will
remain on the screen for a few seconds. The display will turn off to conserve the
battery.
It is normal for your weight to fluctuate during the day and from one day to another.
Slight changes in your weight are normal. For best results:
1. Weigh yourself without clothing whenever possible. Clothes can vary in weight.
2. Weigh yourself at the same time of day under the same conditions.
3. Allow for weight fluctuations due to food or drink in your system.

Use the chart below to determine your own BMI by matching your height in the
