Attention: please do not confuse bone mass with bone
density. Bone density can be determined only by means
of a medical examination (e.g. computer tomography,
ultrasound). It is therefore not possible to draw
conclusions concerning changes to the bones and bone
hardness (e.g. osteoporosis) using this scale.
little influence can be exerted on bone mass, but it will
vary slightly within the influencing factors (weight, height,
age, gender).
8 | TIPS
remember that only long-term trends are important.
short-term fluctuations in weight over a few days are
usually the result of a loss of fluid.
Important when measuring body fat/body water/muscle
percentage:
• If possible, always weighs yourself at the same time
of day (ideally in the morning), after going to the toilet,
on an empty stomach and without clothes to achieve
comparable results.
• The measurement may only be carried out while
barefoot and it is helpful if the soles of your feet
are slightly damp. completely dry soles can result
in unsatisfactory results, as they have insufficient
conductivity.
• stand still during the measurement.
• wait several hours after unusually strenuous activity.
• wait approx. 15 minutes after getting out of bed so that
the water in your body can be distributed.
• remember that only long-term trends are important.
short-term changes in weight within a few days are
usually caused by a loss of fluid. Body water plays an
important role towards our general wellbeing.
The measurement is not reliable for:
• children under approx. 10 years of age;
• professional sporters and bodybuilders;
• pregnant women;
• persons with fever, undergoing dialysis, with symptoms
of edema or osteoporosis;
• persons taking cardiovascular medication.
• persons taking vascodialating or vascoconstricting
medications;
• persons with substantial anatomical deviations in the
legs relative to their total height (leg length considerably
shorter or longer than usual).

9 | INCoRRECT mEASUREmENTS
If the scale detects an error during measurement, this is
indicated with ----.
Possible causes of errors
The electrical resistance between
the electrodes and the soles of
your feet is too high (e.g. with
heavily callused skin).
The fat percentage is outside the
measurable range (less than 3% or
greater than 50%).
The water percentage is outside
the measurable range (less than
25% or greater than 75%).
The muscle and bone
percentages are outside the
measurable range - age and
gender related (less than 25% or
greater than 75%).
The maximum load-bearing
capacity of 150 kg (330 lbs) was
exceeded ----.
10 | CLEANING & mAINTENANCE
The scale should be cleaned occasionally.
Dirt and dust has a tendency to collect on the rubber
electrodes. always stand on the scale barefoot or wearing
socks as the rubber surfaces will quickly become dirty if
you wear shoes. Use a damp cloth to clean the scale. Do
not use abrasive detergents and never immerse the scale
in water.
• Do not use aggressive solvents or cleaning agents!
• Never immerse the scale in water or any other
liquids.
• Handle the scale with care, protect the scale from
impact with hard object and do not drop it.
Your scale is fitted with a change battery indicator. If the
scale is operating with batteries which are too weak,
lo appears on the display and the scale will switch
off automatically. In this case, the batteries must be
exchanged (2 x cr2032, 3V). If necessary please use a
small screwdriver to remove the batteries.
Batteries can contain toxins that are harmful to health and
the environment. The used, completely drained standard
and rechargeable batteries must be disposed of in specially
marked collection containers, at toxic waste collection
points or electrical product retailers. You are legally
obligated to dispose of the batteries.
Note: Batteries containing pollutants are marked with the
following symbols: pb = Battery contains lead, cd = Battery
contains cadmium, hg = Battery containers mercury.
