Tap-On.
–T
ap briefly on the weighing area of your scale.

buttons repeatedly. The data is displayed consecutively until “º.º” (Fig. 2) appears.
–S
tep onto the scale barefoot and make sure you’re standing on both conductors. First your body weight
is calculated and displayed.
–R
emain on the scale and avoid moving; your body fat is being analyzed. This may take a few seconds.
The following data will be displayed:
–B
ody fat percentage BF in % (Fig. 9)
–W
ater percentage in % (Fig. 10)
–M
uscle percentage in % (Fig. 11)
–W
eight (lb, kg or st)
–N
ow all measured values are displayed consecutively and the scale
switches off.
Tips for using the scale
Place the scale on a hard, plane level floor (no carpet); a firm floor covering is required for correct measurement.
–I
f possible, always weigh yourself at the same time of day (preferably in the morning) striving for compa-
rable conditions such as after using the toilet, on an empty stomach and unclothed, in order to achieve
comparable results.
–S
tand still and upright during the measurement.
–W
ait a few hours after unaccustomed physical activity.
–W
ait approx. 15 minutes after getting up in the morning to allow the water in the body to distribute.
R
emember 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 well-being.
Important when measuring body fat/body water/muscle percentage:
–T
he measurement may only be carried out while barefoot. Dry soles or callused skin can result in unsat-
isfactory results, as they have insufficient conductivity.
–Y
our feet, legs, calves and thighs must not touch each other, as otherwise the measurement cannot be
performed correctly.

–g
