The Fat Loss Monitor with Scale is easy to understand. The monitor displays the calculated value of  
body fat percentage using the BI (Bioelectrical Impedance) Method and indicates the BMI (Body Mass  
Index) in four ranges. Set your personal data. Push the power switch on, select your personal ID number,  
and step onto the measurement platform. Your calculated body fat percentage and body mass index is  
displayed in an easy-to-see screen. The personal memory function stores up to four personal profiles.  
The memory function stores the results of the last measurement taken for each personal ID number.  
Your HBF-400 comes with the following components:

USEFUL INFORMATION  
What is Body Fat Percentage?  
Body fat percentage refers to the amount of body fat mass in regards to  
the total body weight described in a percentage.  
Fat mass  
This OMRON Fat Loss MONITOR with Scale 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 weight on  
a continuous schedule. Body fat percentage (%) = {Body fat mass  
(pound) / Body weight (pound)} × 100  
Fat-free mass  
Body  
Weight  
Bones  
Blood  
Muscles  
Water  
Body fat readings may be 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  
Examples of Fluctuation  
Water and food intake  
1 to 2 hours after breakfast, lunch, or dinner  
After taking a bath or shower, immediately after  
exercising, in extreme environments (warm or cold),  
during illness or extreme fatigue  
Changes in blood circulation  
Principles of Body Fat Percentage Calculation  
The OMRON Fat Loss MONITOR with Scale 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 electrical conductivity. The Fat Loss MONITOR with Scale 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 Fat Loss MONITOR with Scale.  
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 Fat Loss MONITOR with Scale works. The body fat  
mass and body fat percentage is calculated by a formula that includes five factors:  
electrical 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. OMRON has collected information on  
people from 10 to 80 years of age using this method.

USEFUL INFORMATION  
The reason calculated results may differ from actual body fat percentage  
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 changing ratios of body fluid and/or body composition.  
NOTE: The body fat percentage measured by this unit may significantly differ from the actual body  
fat percentage in the following situations:  
• Children in growth stage  
• Elderly people  
• People with a fever  
• Body builders or highly trained athletes  
• Patients undergoing dialysis  
• Patients with osteoporosis who have very low bone density  
• Women who are pregnant  
• Post-menopausal women  
• People having swelling  
Recommended Measurement Times  
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)

HOW TO TAKE A MEASUREMENT  
When to avoid taking a measurement  
The estimated body fat percentage may differ significantly from the actual because the water content in  
the body is changing when a measurement is taken under the following physical conditions: immediately  
after vigorous exercise, immediately after a bath or sauna, after drinking alcohol or a large amount of  
water, after eating a meal (1 to 2 hours).  
Before taking a measurement your personal data must be entered.  
If GUEST is used, you will need to enter your personal data each time you take a measurement.  
1. Turn the monitor ON.  
Press the Power Switch. The CAL symbol blinks on the display followed by the 0.0 lb symbol  
as illustrated below.  
NOTE: Wait for the 0.0 lb symbol to appear before proceeding.
