Positioning the Monitor
SWITCHING THE WEIGHT MODE
You can change the unit indication by using the switch on the back of the scale as shown in the figure.
Place the measuring platform on a hard, flat surface where there is minimal
vibration to ensure safe and accurate measurement.
Note: To avoid possible injury, do not step on the edge of the platform.
Note: If weight mode is set to pounds or stone-pounds, the height programming mode will be automatically set to feet and inches.
Similarly, if kilograms is selected, height will be automatically set to centimeters.
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.
SETTING AND STORING PERSONAL DATA IN MEMORY
You will receive readings only if data has been programmed into one of the personal data memories or the Guest mode.
The monitor can store personal details for up to 4 people.
Do not step on the platform when wet.
Do not drop any objects onto the platform.
1. Turn on the Power
Press the Set button to turn on the unit (once programmed, tapping a Personal
Key turns on the unit.) The unit will beep to confirm activation, the Personal Key
numbers (1,2,3,4) will be displayed, and the display will flash.
Note: If you don’t operate the unit for sixty seconds after the unit has been turned on, the unit
will turn off automatically.
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.
Note: If you make a mistake or want to turn the unit off before you have finished
programming it, press the Weight-Only Key (
) to force quit.
2. Select a Personal Key Number
Press the Up/Down buttons to select a Personal Key. Once you reach the
Personal Key number you wish to use, press the Set button. The unit will
beep once to confirm.
Toes may overhang
measuring platform
Heels centered on
electrodes
Note: An accurate reading will not be possible if
the soles of your feet are not clean, or if your
knees are bent or you are in a sitting position.
3. Set Age
The display defaults to Age 30 (range of user age is between 7-99). An
arrow icon appears on the lower left side to indicate Age setting. Use the
Up/Down buttons to scroll through numbers. When you reach your age,
press the Set button. The unit will beep once to confirm.
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.
4. Select Female or Male
Use the Up/Down buttons to scroll through Female ( ) or Male ( ),
Female/Athlete and Male/Athlete settings, then press the Set button. The
unit will beep once to confirm.
*Note: If the power shuts off automatically, repeat the steps from “Setting and Storing Personal Data in Memory” (p.3).
5. Specify the Height
The display defaults to 5’ 7.0” (170cm) (range of user is from 3’ 4.0”–7’
3.0” or 100cm – 220cm). Use the Up/Down buttons to specify Height and
then press the Set button. The unit will beep once to confirm.
The unit will beep twice and the display will flash all data (Male/Female,
Age, Height, etc.) three times to confirm the programming. The power will
