IMPORTANT: If the chart/table shows that you are outside of a ‘normal’ healthy
weight range, consult your doctor before taking any action. BMI classifications are for
adults (age 20+ years) only.
BASAL METABOLIC RATE (BMR) - WHAT DOES IT MEAN? Your Basal Metabolic
Rate (BMR) is an estimation of the energy (measured in calories) expended by the
body, at rest, to maintain normal body functions.This continual work makes up
about 60-70% of the calories the body uses, and includes the beating of your heart,
respiration, and the maintenance of body temperature.Your BMR is influenced by a
number of factors, including age, weight, height, gender, dieting and exercise habits.
BONE MASS -WHY MEASURE IT? Regular exercise and a balanced diet can help
maintain healthy bones. Like muscle, bone is a living tissue that can respond to
exercise by becoming stronger. For most people, bone mass peaks during their
thirties.After that time, we can begin to lose bone. Regular exercise can help prevent
that loss.
Calcium and vitamin D contribute to healthy bones. Good sources of these are dairy
products, green leafy vegetables and fish.
The bone mass readings given by this product are an estimation of the amount of
bone in your body. Those with osteoporosis or low bone densities may not get
accurate estimations. If you have concerns regarding your bones you should always
consult your doctor.
QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
How exactly is my body fat and water being measured?
This Salter Scale uses a measurement method known as Bioelectrical Impedance
Analysis (BIA). A minute current is sent through your body, via your feet and legs.
This current flows easily through the lean muscular tissue, which has a high fluid
content, but not easily through fat. Therefore, by measuring your body’s impedance
(i.e. its resistance to the current), the quantity of muscle can be determined. From
this, the quantity of fat and water can then be estimated.
What is the value of the current passing through me when the measurement
is taken? Is it safe?
The current is less than 1mA, which is tiny and perfectly safe. You will not be able
to feel it. Please note however, that this device should not be used by anyone with
an internal electronic medical device, such as a pacemaker, as a precaution against
disruption to that device.
If I measure my body fat and water at dierent times during the day, it can
vary quite considerably. Which value is correct?
Your body fat percentage reading varies with body water content, and the latter
changes throughout the course of the day. There is no right or wrong time of the day
to take a reading, but aim to take measurements at a regular time when you consider
your body to be normally hydrated. Avoid taking readings after having a bath or
sauna, following intensive exercise, or within 1-2 hours of drinking in quantity or
eating a meal.
My friend has a Body Fat Analyser made by another manufacturer.
When I used it I found that I got a dierent body fat reading. Why is this?
Dierent Body Fat Analysers take measurements around dierent parts of the body
and use dierent mathematic algorithms to calculate the percentage of body fat.
The best advice is to not make comparisons from one device to another, but to use
the same device each time to monitor any change.
How do I interpret my body fat and water percentage readings?
Please refer to the Body Fat and Water tables included with the product. They will
guide you as to whether your body fat and water reading falls into a healthy category
(relative to your age and sex).
What should I do if my body fat reading is very ‘high?
A sensible diet, fluid intake and exercise program can reduce your body fat
percentage. Professional medical guidance should always be sought before
embarking on such
a program.
Why are the body fat percentage ranges for men and women so dierent?
Women naturally carry a higher percentage of fat than men, because the make-up of
the body is dierent being geared towards pregnancy, breastfeeding etc.
What should I do if my water percentage reading is ‘low’?
Ensure that you are regularly taking sucient water and work towards moving your
fat percentage into the healthy range.
Why should I avoid using the Body Analyser Scale whilst pregnant?
During pregnancy a woman’s body composition changes considerably in order to
support the developing child. Under these circumstances, body fat percentage
readings could be inaccurate and misleading. Pregnant women should therefore only
use the weight function.
ADVICE FOR USE AND CARE • Always weigh yourself on the same scale placed on
the same floor surface. Do not compare weight readings from one scale to another
as some dierences willexist due to manufacturing tolerances. • Placing your
scale on a hard, even floor will ensure the greatest accuracy and consistency. • It
is recommended that you measure at the same time of the day, preferably early
evening before a meal for the most consistent results. • Your scale rounds up or
down to the nearest increment. If you weigh yourself twice and get two dierent
readings, your weight lies between the two. • Clean your scale with a damp cloth.
Do not use chemical cleaning agents. • Do not allow your scale to become saturated
with water as this can damage the electronics. • Treat your scale with care - it is a
precision instrument. Do not drop it or jump on it.
TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE • You must have bare feet when using body fat and
total body water measurements. • The condition of your skin on the bottom of your
feet can aect the reading. To get the most accurate and consistent reading, wipe
your feet with a damp cloth, leaving them slightly moist before stepping on the scale.

COMMENT FONCTIONNE CE PESE-PERSONNE SALTER ? Ce pèse-personne Salter
a été conçu sur le modèle technologique d’analyse de la bio impédance qui consiste
à faire passer une impulsion électrique infime à travers le corps, cette dernière étant
complètement anodine et inoensive, afin de diérencier le tissu adipeux du tissu
maigre. Le contact avec le corps s’eectue via des supports en acier inoxydable
situés sur le plateau du pèse-personne.
Cette méthode calcule simultanément votre poids, votre masse lipidique, votre
masse aqueuse, votre indice de masse corporelle (IMC), votre taux métabolique basal
(TMB), votre masse osseuse et votre masse musculaire, ce qui vous permet d’obtenir
un résultat plus précis sur votre état de santé général et sur votre forme. Ce pèse-
personne est capable de mémoriser les données personnelles de 10 utilisateurs
diérents. Bien que cet appareil soit un analyseur, il peut aussi être utilisé comme
pèse-personne ordinaire.
NOUVELLE FONCTIONNALITÉ Ce pèse-personne intègre notre fonction pesage
rapide pratique. Dès les paramètres mémorisés, il sut de monter sur le plateau
pour lancer l’appareil – plus d’attente!
PRÉPARATION DE L’APPAREIL 1. Ouvrir le compartiment batterie situé au dos de
l’appareil. 2. Insérer les piles (3 x AAA) en respectant le sens des polarités + et –

My scale shows an unrealistically low weight when I stand on it, why is that? Verified
For the best result, the scale should be standing on a hard level surface. When the scale is standing on for example a rug this can influence the measurement.
This was helpful (2507) Read moreWhat is BMI? Verified
BMI stands for Body Mass Index and can be calculated by dividing your weight in kilogram by your length in meters squared. For example someone with a weight of 70 kilogram and a lenght of 1,75 meter has a BMI of 22,86. A BMI between 18,5 and 25 is considered healthy.
This was helpful (1787) Read moreA battery in my device is oxidized, can I still safely use it? Verified
Ja, the device can still be safely used. Firstly, remove the oxidizd battery. Never use bare hands to do this. Then clean the battery compartment with a cotton swab dipped in vinegar or lemon juice. Let it dry and insert new batteries.
