Measuring weight and body fat
Tips for proper measurement
3 To start the pairing process press the measurement unit button for
3 seconds.
-
These symbols are shown on the display alternately, indicating that the
connection is being established.
-
If the connection has been established successfully, the display shows
this symbol.
-
If the connection has failed, the display shows this symbol.
4 In the app, create the profile you want to use for the connection.
-
The scale can create 8 user profiles.
-
If all profiles are in use, choose an existing profile to overwrite.
5 Step on the scale barefoot to do an initial weighing. That weight is
assigned to your user profile. The scale switches off automatically.
Note: If you want to edit your user profile later on, make sure the scale is
turned on and connected to the health app.
To ensure accurate measurements, please follow these instructions when
you start measuring.
-
Place the device on a flat, hard surface. Soft surfaces such as carpet
affect the performance of the device. If you use the device on a soft
surface, make sure you attach the carpet feet supplied to the feet of the
device (see 'Placing the carpet feet'). This helps to prevent soft surfaces
from affecting the performance of the device.
-
A bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) measurement can only be
performed if you are barefoot.
-
Step onto the device barefoot, make sure your feet are slightly damp and
clean. Stand still and keep full contact with the measurement platform
until the measurement is complete. Be careful not to slip. The condition
of the skin of the soles of your feet can affect the measurement. The
natural effects of aging or activity can make this skin hard.
-
Do not stand on the edge of the scale as you may fall or receive
inaccurate measurements.
-
Do not use the device on an uneven floor as it may result in unreliable data.
-
Replace batteries before they are completely empty.
-
For a meaningful comparison, try to measure under similar conditions.
For example, take measurements at approximately the same time, on
the same surface. Body fat percentage estimates will vary as a result of
the amount of water in the body, and can be affected by dehydration
or over-hydration due to such factors as alcohol consumption,
menstruation, illness, intense exercise, etc.
