Weight is not everything

- it all depends on the

right body analyses

In the past, a person’s absolu-

te weight was the determining

factor for evaluating

one’s body. But today, we

know that it’s all about the

"composition". Evolution for-

med mankind as a living

creature, which had to be very

active while sustaining itself

on a sparse diet.

"Modern" men and women,

however, do the exact opposi-

te: Sparse activity and a plen-

tiful diet, often a "bad” diet.

The consequences are known

to all of us. Many diseases of

civilization could be avoided if

only we could program oursel-

ves to maintain a healthy life-

style.

Usually, we weigh too much

because we have too much

body fat! This means: If you

want to loose weight, increase

your muscle mass. During

times when food is sparse

(= diet), the human body

reacts with an "emergency

program":

Before using up its fat

reserves, it uses muscle mass.

And vice versa, when normal

nutrition is resumed, it first

adds further fat reserves,

which results in the much

feared "yoyo" effect.

With simultaneous muscle

and fitness training you will

be able to balance your

weight, body fat and muscle

mass.

The Body Balance will be a

decisive contribution to your

health. This electronic body

analysis scale features the

following functions:

The Body Balance will deter-

mine your condition in regard

to body fat and body water

content, energy consumption

and weight based on your per-

sonal data and the recom-

mendations of health and

body composition experts.

An individual evaluation of

the analysis results with

personal recommendations

will be performed.

Display of a trend curve of

body fat or body water con-

tent, energy consumption or

weight, in daily, weekly or

monthly steps and the respec-

tive average range.

Memory slots for 8 persons

and automatic recognition of

persons.

Operating Elements

1. Confirm ( )

2. Minus (▼)

3. Plus (▲)

Preparation

1. Insert batteries.

The time settings mode will

open automatically.

2. Time: SET hours (▼= minus,

▲= plus) and confirm ( ).

3. Time: SET minutes

(▼= minus, ▲= plus) and

confirm ( ).

Note:

Immediately after inserting the

batteries and setting the time

(while "0.0" is still being

displayed), place the body

analysis scale on a level surfa-

ce and wait until the scale

powers down automatically.

Then begin with data entry.

Otherwise, it might be possible

that the weight of the scale

would erroneously be added to

the initial weighting process.

The same might occur if the

scale is held in the hand prior

to the weighing process.

Teaching

It is necessary to enter perso-

nal data for each correspon-

ding person and to step on

the scale with bare feet

immediately after data entry

to ensure correct functionality

of this body analysis scale.

1. Place scale on a table for

programming.

2. Start data entry ( ) and

select "NEW” using keys

"▼” and "▲”.

Confirm using ( ).

3. Memory location

confirm ( ).

5. Enter your age

(▼= minus, ▲= plus) and

confirm ( ).

6. Input your gender

(▼= male , ▲=

7. Select desired value for the

degree of activity

(▼= minus, ▲= plus).

This value is essential to

determine energy require-

ment.

8. Enter desired time period

for trend display (day,

week, months) (

▼

= minus,

▲

= plus) and confirm

( ). We recommend to

initially use a daily trend

curve. Otherwise, the initial

measurement value won't

be displayed in the trend

curve until one week or one

month has passed.

9. Set desired body value

(body weight, body fat/body

water content, energy con-

sumption) to be displayed

as a trend curve

(

▼

= minus,

▲

= plus) and

confirm using ( ).

10. Confirm "OK” using

().

Following this, immediately

place the body analysis scale

on the floor, wait until the

screen displays "0.0" and then

step on the scale with bare

feet.

The initial measurement is

indispensable and serves to

store the data and to automa-

tically recognize persons at a

later time. If no person steps

on the scale, the screen will

display "ERROR" and data

entry must be repeated.

The first body analysis is per-

formed after a person steps on

the scale.

This scale is equipped with a

Time-Out mode.

It will automatically switch off

after approx. 40 seconds if no

keys are pressed.

The data will remain stored

even if the batteries are repla-

ced.

Body Analysis

For most precise results,

please step on the scale while

unclothed.

1. Step on scale. The weight

and – for the duration of

the analysis (5 to 10

seconds) - a moving bar

indicator will be displayed.

Please stand still until the

analysis is complete.

2. After automatic recognition

of persons, the body

weight, body fat content

( ), body water content

( ) and energy consump-

tion (kcal) is displayed

along with the correspon-

ding status bar.

The respective person’s

average range of values is

located in the median

3 segments of the bar indi-

cator.Interpretation of

measurement values: see

page 38.

3. Following this, the trend

curve will be displayed as

selected during data entry.

4. Next, your personal action

recommendations are dis-

played.

Meaning of symbols:

+You should drink more

fluids

+Muscle growth training

is recommended!

Change of diet is

recommended!

Your analysis values

are ok!

5. Step away from the scale.

After display of your

memory slot, the scale will

switch off automatically.

In rare cases it is not possible

to automatically allocate the

analysis results. If this

occurs, the scale will alterna-

tely display the memory slots

of persons coming closest to

the analysis result. Since

weight measurement is alrea-

dy completed, you may now

step off the scale and use the

key ”▼” (for the first memory

slot displayed) or ”

▲

”

(for the second memory slot

displayed) to select your indi-

vidual memory slot.

Following this, body weight,

body fat and body water

content, as well as energy

consumption is displayed.

In case of weight differences

of more than +/- 3 kg compa-

red to the last measurement

(e.g. after a vacation), the

user will not be recognized or

will be allocated to a wrong

memory slot. In this case,

proceed as described in

"Repeat Entry of Personal

Data (TEACH)”.

BA63730_FT4_GB.qxd 12.09.2007 9:15 Uhr Seite 32

zed automatically or if the

user is allocated to a wrong

memory slot, please proceed

as follows:

1. Start data entry ( ).

2. Select corresponding

memory slot (P1... P8)

using keys ▼/▲and

confirm using ( ).

3. Select "TEACH” using ▼/▲

keys and confirm using

( ).

Now, immediately place the

body analysis scale on the

floor, wait until the screen

displays "0.0" and then step

The body analysis is perfor-

med after the person steps on

the scale. The user is again

allocated to his or her pre-

vious memory slot and will

again be recognized automati-

cally.

Note that you will only obtain

a weight reading – and no

body monitoring data – if you

step on the scale with your

shoes or socks on!
