This is how your body analyser scales work

Setting up the scale

1. Place the scale on an even, firm and dry surface. Do not place the scale on a carpet.
2. First, briefly step onto the middle of the weighing surface to calibrate the scale. As
soon as the display shows "0.0", calibration is complete. This calibration must be
performed after each battery change.
This is how your body analyser scales work
Your new body analyser scales work using so-called BIA-technology (Bioelectric
Impedance Analysis). This involves an undetectable, completely harmless and weak
current flowing through your body. The measurement takes place via sensors that are
mounted on the weighing surface.
‚ The current flows relatively unhindered through the fluid contained in muscle mass.
‚ In fat mass, the resistance is greater. This resistance is measured.
Together with your personal data (sex, weight, age, and height), the scales calculate the
following information about your body composition:
‚ Weight
‚ Body fat proportion in %
‚ Body water in %
‚ Muscle mass %
‚ Bone mass %
‚ Daily basal metabolic rate in kcal (energy requirement)
‚ Body mass index (BMI)
The scales are equipped with 12 memory cells in total.
Measurement errors
Measurement or calculation errors may arise for the following groups of people during
the body analysis. People who ....
... spend 10 hours or more per week playing sport,
... are professional athletes, bodybuilders or endurance athletes,
... are over 70 years old,
... are less than 10 years old.
The "normal weighing function" (see next chapter) is not affected by these considerations.

Measuring your weight

For normal weighing – without body analysis – you do not have to input
any data.
