OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
a.Insertingthebattery
This scale works with one 3V replaceable lithium battery.
When battery is flat, the display shows “Lo” or the symbol of the battery.
Remove the battery, if the scale is not going to be used for long time. Remove the flat battery sliding the cover of the
battery compartment in the arrow direction.
Extract the batteries and dispose them as sp
information concerning the disposal of used batteries, refer to the store where the device containing the batteries was
purchased, the Municipality or the local waste disposal service.
Caution:
removethebatteries.
b. Measurementunitkey
Off scale, select the measurement unit to perform the weighing (kg, lb, or st) using the key positioned on the bottom
of the scale (see fig. 1)
c.Simplescalefunction
1) With switched off scale, get on the same keeping your feet parallel and your weight homogeneously distributed
(see drawings). Caution: It switches on, only after you have got on it. Wait without moving until the scale
measures your weight.
Do not lean on anything during the measurement to avoid modifying the detected values.
2) Get off the scale. The display keeps showing the weight for some seconds and then the scale switches off
automatically.
d.Enteringpersonaldata
This scale can store the data of 10 different people.
1) With off scale, press the “SET” key (positioned under the glass platform next to the text “SET”) (see fig. 2).
2) On the display, the message “P-01” blinks, indicating the person “01”: If you wish to change memory area
(memories from 0 1 to 10), press the keys “ ▲ ”or “ ▼ ” (positioned under the glass platform next to the symbols
“▲ ”or “▼ ”). Once the memory area has been selected, confirm by pressing “SET”.
3) Now the display shows the shape of a man or woman. Use the keys “▲ ” and “▼ ” to select and confirm by
pressing “SET”.
4) Then, enter your height (from 100 cm to 220 cm) using the keys “▲ ” or “▼ ” to increase or decrease the
value. The display shows the value in cm. Press “SET” to confirm.
5) Use the symbols “▲ ” or “▼ ” once again to enter the “Age” (from 10 to 80) and confirm by pressing “SET”.
6) Now, the scale has stored all your data; the display shows “0.0”.
Get on the scale paying attention to position the naked feet correctly on the two electrodes. The display
shows the following data two times sequentially:
- your weight
- the percentage of fat present in the body (FA
- the percentage of water present in the body (BW)
- the percentage of skeletal musculature (MUS)
- the basal metabolic rate (KCAL)
Compare the obtained fat percentage (F ) with the parameters given in the “Bodyfat table”: If the values are not
included in the normal range, refer to your doctor.
Moreover, evaluate the water percentage ( BW) according to paragraph “% of water”, the percentage of musculature
(MUS) according to paragraph ”% of skeletal musculature” and the basal
paragraph “basal metabolic rate”. Should the data not be included in the standard range, refer to your doctor.
7) The scale switches off automatically after having displayed all data for the second time.
To modify the entered data, call up the involved memory area and repeat the entire proceeding.
To enter the data of another person, select a free memory area and repeat the entire proceeding described above.
Caution: While performing the “Enter your personal data” procedure, the scale switches off automatically if not any key
is pressed within 15 seconds.
e.
metabolicratevalue
1) With off scale, press the key “SET”; then, press the key “▲ ” or “▼ ” to select the desired memory area.
Previously entered data will be displayed by the display, followed by “0.0kg”.
2) Get on the scale and wait for the display of your data (see item 6 of the paragraph “Entering personal data”).
Caution!
If the display does not show “0.0” it will not be possible to read the weight and calculate body composition.
If the display shows “Err2”, it means that an error occurred during the measurement.
Repeat the entire procedure again. In case of overweight, the display shows “Err”.
In this case, remove immediately the weight from the balance in order not to damage its mechanism.
