• This product is intended for use in the household.
• This product is a sensitive electronic instrument and could therefore be occasionally affected by
radio transmission devices (such as mobile telephones, radiotelephones, CB radio devices, radio
controls and microwave ovens used in the immediate vicinity).
• Should symptoms such as display faults occur, remove the product from the source of interference
or switch off the source of interference when using the scale.
ᕣ Important usage and safety instructions
•
Do not use the scale if you
-
are pregnant or
-
use medical devices such as heart pacemaker, respiration apparatus or electrocardiographs
• Children should use the scale only from age 10 years or body size above 100 cm.
• With the following groups of persons it is possible for measuring errors to occur or results could
considerably deviate from the actual values since fluctuations of average water content and bone
density can occur.

• Do not compare the measurements with the measurements of another scale since there could be
differences because of the manufacturing tolerances.
• Since both the water content and the fat content of your body could fluctuate during a single day
you should always weigh yourself at the same time of day and before meals to obtain comparable
results. First thing in the morning is the best time for weighing.
• To obtain accurate measurements, place the scale on a solid, level and non-skid surface.
• The scale is equipped with sensitive electronic components. For this reason, do not place the
scale next to heat sources or in locations with excessive moisture.
ᕤ Appendix: Body fat and water contents
A regular check of fat and weight is a basic pre-requisite for your health and fitness. Fat contributes
considerably to the loading of the organism especially the coronary circulation system. The body fat
content of human beings is highly individual. There are heavy persons who have a well-balanced ratio
of fat and muscle mass and there are apparently slim persons with clearly increased body fat values.
Body fat in our body assumes important functions. It protects the joints, is a vitamin store and
handles the regulation of the body temperature. It need not therefore be an urgent objective to
radically reduce fat but rather to achieve and maintain a well-balanced ratio of muscle mass and fat
mass. Only if you know your body fat content will you be able to determine your actual degree of
fitness. Depending on age and sex, a different body fat content is considered healthy. The following
table can be used as a reference for your personal fitness profile.

Dependent on the age, the body consists of up to 80 per cent of water (see below). Water fulfils
important metabolic functions: It regulates the body temperature and transports nutrients between
cells and organs. Since the body looses water continuously, the liquid household must be adequately
replenished. A lack of water in the body results in a concentration of toxins in the body fluid. A water
content of 20 percent below average can even be life-threatening.

ᕧ Simple weighing
(without simultaneous measurement of body fat and water contents)
Do not remove the remote control if you merely want to weigh yourself.
1. Gently touch the scale with your foot. The red LED display
lights up. The running display “bALAnCE“ appears above
the line, the display “---- kg” below the line. After
approximately 2 seconds the green LED will light up
and “0.0kg” appears below the line. The scale is now
ready for operation.
2. Step onto the scale and remain still for weighing.
3. When the scale has established the approximate weight,
“H” will be shown on the display. This display stops flashing
as soon as the weight has been established exactly.
4. If you remain on the scale it will switch off after approximately
60 seconds. When you get off the scale, flashing “H“ is
displayed 3 times and the display “0.0kg” returns. The
scale is now ready again for weighing.
