Manual ADE BA 1402 Bella Scale

Manual

Thank you for deciding to purchase this set of high-quality body analysis scales. Please

read through this operating manual carefully before starting-up the scales for the first

time, and keep it in a safe place so that this information is available to you when you

need it.

1. How do the body analysis scales work?

With these new, revolutionary scales you will obtain information about your body

composition in terms of weight, proportion of body fat (%), proportion of body water (%),

muscle mass (%) and bone mass (in kg). Your personal data, such as sex (male or

female), age and height, must first be entered into one of the individual storage cells.

Taking a measurement is then as easy as weighing yourself on a completely normal set

of scales. You need only choose your personal storage cell, stand on the scales and

within a few seconds your current body status will be displayed for you. For measuring, a

weak current is used, which gauges the resistance. Water, which is principally stored in

the musculature, conducts very well; fat, on the other hand, does not. With reference to

the measured resistance and the stored data, the body analysis scales can calculate

your body composition very accurately.

2. How to use

A measurement should preferably be taken while you are undressed and barefoot.

Since the body is naturally subject to variations (e.g. through dehydration during sport or

after a visit to the sauna, the intake of food or fluids), it is important to take

measurements under the most consistent conditions possible, in order to obtain

comparable values.

Care should be taken to ensure that measurements are always taken at the same time of

day. In the morning, immediately after getting up, body water has still not distributed itself

throughout the body. This means that the resistance is relatively high because the

conductivity in the body is still quite poor. With increasing movement throughout the day

the water distributes itself throughout the body, the conductivity of the body increases,

the resistance and thus the proportion of fat are registered less. In order to determine the

actual change of body composition it is therefore important to measure yourself always

at the same time. The easiest way to achieve this is to take your measurements in the

morning, ¼ hour after getting up either always before or always after you go to the toilet.

Despite the minimal current strength, people with pacemakers or other implants

that transmit signals must not use these body ana lysis scales! With implants such as

a titanium plate in the knee there is no danger. Nevertheless, metals do conduct currents

extremely well, as a consequence of which the body fat value is “embellished”, thus the

actual amount of fat is higher than that displayed on the scales. Trends in body

composition can nevertheless be determined equally well. In women, periodic influences

affect the results of measurements because hormonal variations influence the water

balance of the body. If there is a lot of water in the body the fat values come out lower; if

7. Error messages

“EEEE” = Overload indicator – the maximum capacity of the scales (180 kg) has

been exceeded. Remove the load from the scales immediately,

otherwise the load cell could incur damage.

Or: Faulty weighing or measuring process – e.g. when the scales are

not standing stably or you are not standing still on the weighing

platform.

“Lo” = Batteries are empty – please replace the batteries with the battery

type intended for your scales (4 x 1.5V AAA).

“Err” = The body fat proportion is either too low (below 5% cannot be shown)

or the body fat proportion is too high (over 50% cannot be shown).

CE compliance. This device suppresses electromagnetic

interference in accordance with the applicable EC directive

2004/108/EG

Please note: Under extreme electromagnetic influences e.g. when operating a radio

device in immediate proximity to the scales, the indicator value may be affected. After the

disturbing influence has stopped, the product may once again be used as intended,

although a re-activation may be necessary.
