Note: An accurate reading will not be possible if

the soles of your feet are not clean, or if your

Handling Tips

This monitor is a precision instrument utilizing state-of-the-art technology.

To keep the unit in the best condition, follow these instructions carefully:

Do not attempt to disassemble the measuring platform.

Store the unit horizontally, and place it so that the buttons will not be pressed accidentally.

Avoid excessive impact or vibration to the unit.

Place the unit in an area free from direct sunlight, heating equipment,

high humidity, or extreme temperature change.

Never submerge in water. Use alcohol to clean the electrodes and glass cleaner (applied to a cloth first) to keep

them shiny; avoid soaps.

Do not step on the platform when wet.

Do not drop any objects onto the platform.

GETTING ACCURATE READINGS

To ensure accuracy, readings should be taken without clothing and under consistent

conditions of hydration. If you do not undress, always remove your socks or stockings,

and be sure the soles of your feet are clean before stepping on the measuring platform.

Be sure that your heels are correctly aligned with the electrodes on the

measuring platform. Don't worry if your feet appear too large for the unit -

accurate readings can still be obtained if your toes overhang the platform.

It is best to take readings at the same time of day. Try to wait about three

hours after rising, eating, or hard exercise before taking measurements.

While readings taken under other conditions may not have the same

absolute values, they are accurate for determining the percentage of change

as long as the readings are taken in a consistent manner. To monitor

progress, compare weight and body fat percentage taken under the same

conditions over a period of time.

AUTOMATIC SHUT-DOWN FUNCTION

The automatic shut-down function shuts off the power automatically in the following cases:

If you interrupt the measurement process. The power will shut down automatically within 10 to 20 seconds,

depending upon the type of operation.

If an extreme weight is applied to the platform.

During programming, if you do not touch any of the keys or buttons within 60 seconds.*

After you have completed the measuring process.

*Note: If the power shuts off automatically, repeat the steps from “Setting and Storing Personal Data in Memory” (p.3).

SWITCHING THE WEIGHT MODE

Note: For use only with models containing the weight mode switch

PREPARATIONS BEFORE USE

Inserting the Batteries

Turn the scale over and remove the battery cover by releasing the latch, install 2 pieces of new
