4. Programming / Entering personal data
Before initial use, you must enter and store your personal data such as gender (female or
male), age and height in the memory locations P0 – P9 (for up to 10 persons). The scales
have highly sensitive sensor buttons (Sensor Touch). The buttons are located above the
display. To enter personal data, use the buttons: SET (start / and memory button), UP
(plus button), DOWN (minus button) and follow the detailed steps:
1. Lightly touch the SET button. "P0" flashes in the display. To select the desired
memory location (P0 – P9), touch the UP or DOWN button and save by pressing the
SET button.
2. After you have selected the memory location (e.g. memory location P3), the gender
icon flashes. To select the desired gender (male or female), touch the UP or DOWN
button and save by pressing the SET button.
3. After you have selected your gender (e.g. male), the age flashes on the display
(default age 30). Touch the UP or DOWN button to enter your age, and save by
pressing the SET button.
4. After you have selected your age, the height flashes on the display (default 170 cm). To
enter your height, touch the UP or DOWN button and save by pressing the SET button.
After entering the all data, your selected values are displayed once more and the scales
return to "0.0 kg". The scales are now ready and you can conduct the body analysis.
Without any additional activity the scales switch off automatically after a few seconds.
Your personal data has been saved.
By touching the UP or DOWN button within 2 seconds after the initial input, you can
directly enter the data of further persons, or you can repeat all the abovementioned steps
to make a new input.
5. Weighing function (only weight measuring)
Simply step onto the scales. The scales are activated and once they have stabilised, your
weight is displayed three times in succession and then for approx. 10 seconds
continuously. The scales will then automatically switch off.

6. Body analysis

An analysis is only possible with bare feet. The personal data must be entered
beforehand (see page 4).
1. Switch the scales on by touching the SET button. The display shows the personal
data of the last setting. If the displayed values are not your own, simply select the
4
memory location containing your saved personal data by pressing the UP or DOWN
button. Your personal data is displayed. Confirm each set of data by pressing the
SET button after which the scales will return to "0.0 kg".
2. Then with bare feet, carefully step onto the scales' stainless steel strips
(measuring units) and stand still.
3. First your weight is displayed. After this, during the body analysis, the display flashes
twice. Remain still. After the measurement, the values are shown on the display twice
in succession as follows:
1. Your weight in kg
2. Your body fat in %
and at the same time an assessment as a column at the display edge: Underfat /
Healthy / Overfat / Obese
3. Your body water in %
4. Your muscle mass in %
5. Your bone mass in kg
6. Your BMI (Body Mass Index)
7. Your basal metabolic rate in kcal
After that, the scales switch off automatically.
The percentage of body fat shows the percentage of fat in relation to the total weight of a
body. There is no general recommendation for this value, since this depends significantly
on gender (due to the different physique) and age. Body fat is vital for the daily body
functions. It protects organs, cushions joints, regulates body temperature, stores vitamins
and acts as an energy storage for the body. With the exception of athletes, a body fat
percentage for women between 10 % and 13 % and for men between 2 % and 5 % is
seen as vital.
The percentage of body fat is not a clear indicator for health. A body weight and
a percentage of body fat which are too high are related to many diseases of civilisation
such as diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, etc. A lack of exercise and the wrong diet are
the most common causes for these diseases. There is a clear causal connection between
being overweight and a lack of exercise.
A significant part of the human body consists of water. This body water has a different
distribution throughout the body. Lean muscle tissue contains about 75 % water, blood
approx. 83 % water, body fat approx. 25 % water and the bones have a water percentage
of about 22 %.
