•Risk of slipping!
Do not stand on the scale with wet feet.
Do not stand on the scale wearing socks.
•Place the scales on a firm, level base. Soft, uneven surfaces are un-
suitable for the measuring process and lead to incorrect results.
•Always weigh yourself on the same scales, in the same place and on the same
surface.
•Weigh yourself without clothes, socks and shoes, before meals and always at
the same time of day for consistent measuring.
•The scales have a measuring range up to 180 kg (396 lbs / 28 st 4 lbs). Do not
overload the scales – this can cause irreversible damage.
•Handle the scale with care. The scale must not be subjected to im-
pacts or vibration. Do not drop anything on the scales.
•Do not attempt to dismantle the scale, otherwise the warranty will be invali-
dated. The scale does not contain any parts that need to be maintained by the
user, with the exception of the battery.
•Do not attempt to repair the device yourself in the event of a malfunction since
this will invalidate the warranty. Repairs should only be carried out by authorised
service centres.
•Clean the surface and the electrodes after use with a damp cloth. Do not use a
scouring agent and do not immerse the device in water.
•Do not store the scales upright, as this can cause the batteries to leak.
•If the scale is not going to be used for a long period, please remove the batteries.

Useful Information 4
Why is it important to know how much body fat you have?
The human body is made up amongst other things of water, fat and muscle mass.
A fat proportion which is too high or too low may lead to increased health risks.
The personal scales with body analysis functionality provide useful support in
motivating someone to reach or maintain the best possible body weight by
monitoring the proportion of body fat.
How does the scale with body analysis functionality work?
The scale measures using BIA (Bio-electrical Impedance Analysis). When you
step onto the metal plates barefoot, extremely weak electrical current is passed
into your body. The scale measures the difference between these signals. The
measurements are used in combination with personal data such as age, gender,
height and weight to calculate the amount of body fat.
NOTES
Excessive drinking, eating, training, medical treatment, the
female menstrual cycle etc. affect the measuring results.
The body fat, water content and muscle measurements will
be incorrect for women during pregnancy.
Prerequisites for correct measuring results
Reliable measurements can only be achieved under certain prerequisites:
Always measure barefoot.
The feet must have a good contact with the electrodes on the standing area.
Stand upright.
Carry out the measurement approximately 15 minutes after getting up, or after
bathing or showering, with towel-dried feet.
