Thank you for your decision to purchase this high-quality body analyser scale. Please
peruse read this instruction manual prior to first start up and keep this user instruction
careful to have this information on hand whenever it is needed.
1. How does the body analyser work?
Through this new revolutionary scale, you will be able to get information about your body
composition with reference to your weight, body fat %, body water % and muscle mass
%. First of all, you have to enter once your personal data like body height, age, and
gender under your selected personal memory location. Afterwards a measurement is as
simple as on a normal bathroom scale. You have only to push your personal memory
location, step on the scale and within a few seconds, your measured values will be
indicated. The analysis is based on the measurement of the body' s electrical resistance.
A low, safe electrical signal passes freely through fluids contained in lean tissue, such as
muscle and blood, but meets resistance passing through fat tissue. The body analysers
accurately measure the resistance and with reference to your personal data, use it to
calculate elements of body composition.
2. Conditions to use
If possible, the measurement should be done undressed and always barefoot.
By nature, a body is subject of fluctuations (for example loss of water after taking
exercise or after a sauna visit, after a meal, etc.). To enable comparable readings it is
important to take the measurements as possible always under the same conditions.
In order to ensure that the results of analysis are accurate and consistent, please keep
the measurement conditions constant always at the same daytime. In the morning,
directly after you' ve woken up, your body will be dehydrated and also the majority of fluid
will be stored in the central trunk area. This means that the resistance is relatively high
because of the poor conductivity in the body. By intensify moving during the day
progresses the fluid becomes more evenly distributed through the limbs and increasing
the accuracy of the readings. To get a realistic result it is important to take your readings
at the same time and under the same conditions every day. The easiest way to stick the
rule, measure always in the morning, 15 minutes after you' ve got up, either before or
after you' ve gone to the bathroom.
In spite of a very low elec trica l signal, this body ana lyzer is not suitable for persons
with hea rt pacemaker or other elec tronic medica l implants! There is no risk for
persons with none electronic implant for instance a titanium plate in the knee. However,
metal conducts the electric current extremely well and therefore the scale implicates the
body fat value " beautified" – means the actual body fat value is higher as indicated.
However, tendencies may be determined as well.
Due to menstrual cycle and hormonal changes women experience greater changes in
their hydration level. Retaining fluid may cause the weight to fluctuate day-to-day. This
will also affect the body fat percentage readings. If the hydration level is high, the body
