Features  
Easy-to-Understand Display  
This unit calculates and displays the body fat percentage by using the Bioelectrical  
Impedance (BI) method. The displayed values for body fat and BMI* (Body Mass Index)  
are indicated in four ranges: “–”, “0”, “+”, “++”.  
BI method: Bioelectrical Impedance method (full explanation on page 7)  
BMI: Body Mass Index.  
This Index indicates the ratio between weight and height of a person.  
Common standard in the medical profession.  
Formula (in metric): weight (kg) / height (m) / height (m).  
Measurement is fast and simple.  
After entering the data, a measurement can be started by simply pushing the power  
switch, selecting your personal ID number and stepping onto the measurement platform.  
The calculated results are shown in an easy-to-see display.  
Body fat percentage and body mass index are shown simultaneously in an easy-to-see  
large digital display and a bar display that can be read at a glance.  
The memory function stores up to 4 personal profiles  
The memory function can store individual settings (age, gender, and height) for up to  
four people.  
The memory function also stores the previous measurement results for  
each ID  
A simple press of the GUEST/MEMORY button displays the measurement results from  
the previous measurement.

1. What You Should Know When Using This Unit  
1.1 What is Body Fat Percentage?  
Body fat percentage refers to the amount of body fat  
mass in regards to the total body weight expressed as  
a percentage.  
Fat mass  
This OMRON BF400 will provide your specific body fat  
percentage and body weight. It is also an excellent tool  
to estimate your body fat percentage and measure

= {Body fat mass / Body weight} x 100  
Body fat reading is affected by the change of  
water content in the body.  
A person’s hydration level and blood circulation may have an effect on their body fat  
reading. In the table below are some situations which could affect the reading.  
Cause of Fluctuations  
Water and food intake  
Examples of Fluctuation

1.What You Should Know When Using This Unit  
1.2 Advice for Measurement  
If the soles of your feet are dry or the temperature of your feet or the electrodes are  
extremely cold, it will not be possible to obtain stable measurements, which may lead to  
display error indication or inaccurate results.  
Please pay special attention in winter because the air is dry and/or the temperature is  
low.  
Conditions  
Actions  
Slightly moisten soles of your feet with a wet  
towel, then measure.  
Feet are dry.  
Allow the electrodes to warm by leaving the  
unit in a warm room for approximately ten  
minutes.  
When you step onto the electrodes, they feel  
cold.  
Warm your feet by immersing in hot water or  
staying in a warm room. Make sure the feet  
are dried properly.  
Your body and feet are cold due to the blood  
not circulating well.  
Recommended times for measurement  
Understanding the normal changes in your body fat percentage can help you in  
preventing or reducing obesity. Being aware of the times when the body fat percentages  
shift within your own daily schedule will assist you in obtaining an accurate trending of  
your body fat. It is recommended to use this unit in the same environment and daily  
circumstances. (See chart)

1.What You Should Know When Using This Unit  
1.3 Principles of Body Fat Percentage Measurement  
The OMRON BF400 estimates the body fat percentage by the Bioelectrical Impedance  
(BI) method.  
What is the Bioelectrical Impedance method?  
Muscles, blood vessels and bones are body tissues having a high water content that  
conduct electricity easily. Body fat is tissue that has little electric conductivity. The  
BF-400 sends an extremely weak electrical current of 50 kHz and less than 500 µA  
through your body to determine the amount of fat tissue.  
This weak electrical current is not felt while operating the BF400.  
The Bioelectrical Impedance Method safely combines the electric resistance with the  
distance of the electricity conducted. Correct posture and consistent measuring  
conditions need to be maintained for the best results.  
How to estimate the body fat percentage.  
DXA (Dual Energy X-Ray Absorptiometry), has been the established method for  
accurate evaluation of body composition. OMRON has used research information from  
several hundred people using the DXA method to develop the formula by which the  
BF-400 works. The body fat mass and body fat percentage is calculated by a formula  
that includes five factors: electric resistance, height, weight, age and gender.  
What is the DXA method?  
The DXA method uses two different frequency X-Rays and rates of absorption of the  
body and determines the value based on the difference between the two.  
People who may get erratic results  
There are certain conditions, such as with dialysis patients, when significant differences  
may occur between the estimated and actual body fat values.  
These differences may be related to consistently changing ratios of body fluid and/or  
body composition.  
Also refer to: “Avoid Taking Measurements Under the Following Conditions” and “Cases  
When the Calculated Results May Differ from Actual Body Fat Percentages” in section

9.Technical Data  
Important information regarding Electro Magnetic Compatibility (EMC)  
With the increased number of electronic devices such as PC.s and mobile (cellular) telephones,  
medical devices in use may be susceptible to electromagnetic interference from other devices.  
Electromagnetic interference may result in incorrect operation of the medical device and create a  
potentially unsafe situation.  
Medical devices should also not interfere with other devices.  
In order to regulate the requirements for EMC (Electro Magnetic Compatibility) with the aim to  
prevent unsafe product situations, the EN60601-1-2 standard has been implemented. This  
standard defines the levels of immunity to electromagnetic interferences as well as maximum levels  
of electromagnetic emissions for medical devices.  
This medical device manufactured by OMRON Healthcare conforms to this EN60601-1-2:2001  
standard for both immunity and emissions.  
Nevertheless, special precautions need to be observed:  
• Do not use mobile (cellular) telephones and other devices, which generate strong electrical or  
electromagnetic fields, near the medical device. This may result in incorrect operation of the unit  
and create a potentially unsafe situation. Recommendation is to keep a minimum distance of 7 m.  
Verify correct operation of the device in case the distance is shorter.  
Further documentation in accordance with EN60601-1-2:2001 is available at OMRON Healthcare  
Europe at the address mentioned in this instruction manual.
