1. Introduction

1.1 Proper use

Thank you for choosing a Soehnle Body Analysis scale! You are part of the group of people that take the health of

their body to heart.

Ahealthydietandsufcientphysicalexercisecanhelpavoidexcessweightandtheconnectedillnesses.Toolittle

weight can also be harmful and should not be underestimated under any circumstances.

A person that knows its body’s weaknesses and problems can ensure physical wellbeing and resilience with rela-

tively simple measures. The condition for this is to know one‘s own body values and the interpretation of them.

Soehnlehelpsyoudeterminespecicgoalsandndsuitablemeasurestoenhanceyourhealth.Yournewscale

analyses the current individual status of your body and shows whether your values are in balance or outside of the

standard range.

Ifoneormoreofyourbodyvaluesdeviatefromthestandardrange,itisrecommendedthatyourstexplorethe

situation in detail. The internet will offer a plethora of information on these topics. However, please do not rely on

standardexplanations.Everypersonneedsindividualconceptsthatarealignedtothatpersonsspecicneed.

With our products we would like to support you in your responsibility for your body and motivate you to lead a

healthy lifestyle.

If you are unsure of which measures are suitable for your personal wellbeing, it is imperative that you obtain profes-

sional advice from a physician or dietician.

This scale is designed for persons 16 years of age or older.

This device is not designed for medical and commercial use.

Due to a special condition of your body, implausible measurement results may occur if you are pregnant or a body-

builder.

Please read in particular the safety information and observe the care instructions and you will enjoy your body ana-

lysis scale for a long time.

Please store these instructions for future use.

1.3 Body monitoring software

Basically, it’s very easy:

A balanced and controlled diet and exercise are

the true “secret” for great health, moderate body

weight, and general wellbeing.

A Soehnle body analysis scale will enable you

to determine the body values that are relevant to

your health.

Yet, since body values change slowly, a trend

display is an important feature of this body

analysis scale.

The operating terminal of your body analysis

scale will allow you to always see the important

data and trends at a glance.

And in order to make everything even more convenient, Soehnle includes software for trend evaluation on the PC

with this device.

Software installation

For installation, insert the CD into the drive of your PC. The CD will start automatically, unless automatic CD start is

disabled. In that case, the installation routine must be initiated in Explorer using setup.exe.

Then simply follow the installation routine.

Start the program after successful installation. Use the enclosed USB cord to connect the operating terminal -

which must be in time mode – to the computer. The PC will automatically recognize the operating terminal. The

installation assistant for the USB driver will be called up and installation will be completed.

You may then read and manipulate the data from the operating terminal using the PC software.

1.4 Bio impedance analysis (BIA)

BIA is the common measurement method among Body Balance body analysis scales. This method does not

directly measure values like body fat, body water, and muscle mass but instead measures the electric resistance

(impedance) of the body. The respective body values are then calculated based on the personal values (body

weightandmeasuredbodyimpedance).Theevaluationofthebodyvaluesisbasedonascienticstudyofa

European reference population group.

The impedance measurement is performed by electrodes located on the platform of the scale. This is done by a

harmless,weakelectricalsignal,whichissendthroughthebody(<0.1mA).Theelectriccurrentisabletoow

betterthroughbodyuids(water),whicharecontainedchieyinthemusclesofthehumanbody,thanthroughbody

fat. The higher the body‘s resistance against the electric signal, the higher the body fat content and the lower the

body water content. And vice-versa: the higher the muscle mass in percent, the higher the body water content in

percent and the lower the body fat content in percent.

The body water content is grouped in intracellular water (in the cells) and extracellular water (outside of the cells).

1.5 The body mass index (BMI)

The foundation of this calculation is the body mass index - an index number that can be used to interpret body

weight in terms of the risk it poses to your health.

The index number is calculated based on the body weight in kilogram, divided by the body height squared

(example: BMI = = 24.5)

1.6 Rules for weighing

The weight of an adult can change by approx. 2-3 kg during one day.

For a reliable weight control it is therefore important to maintain constant weighing conditions.

That’s why it’s best to weigh oneself

•sober

•alwaysatthesametime:thetimebetween6p.m.and8p.m.isbestforbodyanalysis.

•undressed

Ensurethesturdyandsecureplacementoftheplatform.Textileorsoftoorsurfacescaninuencethe

measurement results rather strongly.

Inordertopreventfalsicationoftheweighingresult,thescaleshouldnotbemovedfor3minutespriortothe

weighing process.

The body analysis

•Steponplatformbarefoot.

•Standontheplatformsymmetrically.Anunevenloadontheplatformmayfalsifytheweighingresult.

•Standstill.

•Donotholdontoanythingforsupport.

•Alwaysweighyourselfatthesamelocation.Environmentalchanges,i.e.oorcoverings,temperature,humidity,

can result in a variance of weighing results.

Circumstances inuencing a body analysis

Thebodymassinformationprovidedbythebioimpedancemeasurementmethodcanuctuateduringthecourse

of a day. This is not due to a lack of precision of the Body Balance body analysis scales, but rather due to the

uctuationsofthebody’sdailywatercontent.

The human body may lose up to 2 - 3 kg of body water while sleeping. Therefore, the body is usually dehydrated

(lacking water) immediately after getting up in the morning. However, the lower the body water content, the higher

the body resistance and the calculated body fat content while the calculated muscle mass is lower.

Waterreservesarerelledoverthecourseofadayandthemeasurementvaluesreturntoanormalrange.

While regular weighing is recommended immediately after waking, body analysis should be performed in the

evening. The time between 6:00 p.m. and 8:00 p.m. is usually best for body analysis.

In order to obtain comparable measurement values, the measurements should always be performed at the same

time of day and under the same conditions.

Other circumstances inuencing a body analysis

Besidesfundamentaluctuationsindailymeasurementvalues,uctuationsmayalsoariseduetochangesinthe

water content due to the consumption of foods and liquids, menstruation, illness, exercise, and bathing.

Implausible results may occur among

•personswithfever,edema,orosteoporosis

•personsindialysistreatment

•personstakingcardiovascularmedicines

•pregnantwomen

•youthundertheageof16

•personsoftheAsianandAfricanpopulationgroup.
