2.6 kg represents the kilograms that person 1 could add to reach the ideal value of fat mass.

Water percentage equal to 56.4% is within the standard values for women. The percentage of skeletal muscles

(30.0%) is lower than the average due to a reduced physical activity The basal metabolic rate is 1319 kcal and

it is affected by the gender, weight and height (woman, normal body composition; therefore, BMI around 1300

kcal). The body mass index is normal (as per “BMI table”).

TIPS FOR USE

• Placethescaleonaflat,hardsurface. Soft, uneven flooring (e.g. rugs, carpets, linoleum) can cause

the scale to give an uneven reading of your weight.

• Step onto the scale with your feet parallel and weight equally distributed (see illustrations).

Stand still while the scale measures your weight.

• It is important to weigh yourself with dry, bare feet, correctly positioned on the electrodes (see illustrations).

Moreover, for the scale to work properly, avoid your legs touching.

• Thescaledoesnotinvolveanyhazardsinceitworksusingreplaceable1.5Valkaline

batteries.

However,thefollowingpeopleshouldavoidusingit:

- thosefittedwithapace-makerorotherformsofelectronic,medicalequipment

- thosewithatemperature

- childrenundertheageof10

- pregnantwoman

- thoseindialysis,withedemasontheirlegs,peoplewithdimorphismorsufferingfrom

osteoporosis.

- peopleoncardiovascularmedication.

• Always weigh yourself on the same scale each day at the same time, preferably undressed and before

breakfast. To get the best results from your scale, weigh yourself twice, and if the two weights are different

from each other, your weight is between the two readings.

Wait for about 15 minutes after getting up, so that the water can distribute itself around your body.

• The surface of the scale can be slippery, if wet.

• Should any error occur during the analysis of your basal metabolic rate, of your percentage of fat, water

and skeletal musculature, or of your body mass index, the scale turns off automatically.

Caution! The function measuring the percentage of body fat, body water, skeletal musculature, basal

metabolic rate and body mass index can be used only by people of 10 to 80 years old and height ranging

between 100 and 220 cm.

• The precision of the data detected by the scale can be altered in the following cases:

a) a high alcohol level

b) a high level of caffeine or drugs

c) after an intense sports activity

d) during an illness

e) during pregnancy

f) after heavy meals

g) in presence of dehydration problems

h) your personal data (height, age, sex) have not been input correctly

i) if you have wet or dirty feet

j) persons with swollen legs

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

a.Insertingthebatteries

This scale works with 3 replaceable 1.5 V alkaline batteries type AAA.

When batteries are low, the display shows “LO” or the symbol of the battery.

Insert the new batteries paying attention to the indicated polarity. Remove the batteries, if the scale is not going

to be used for long periods. Remove the flat batteries by lifting the cover of the battery compartment positioned

on the bottom of the device. Extract the batteries and dispose them as special waste at the collection point

indicated for recycling. For further 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:Forsafetyreasons,itisrecommendednevertoallowchildrenyoungerthan12years

toremovethebatteries.

b.Selectingthemeasurementunit

Turn on the scale by pressing the key “O/I” (TOUCH SCREEN key) and wait until the display shows “0.0”.

Then, select the measurement unit for weighing (kg, lb or st), using the keys “▲” and “▼” (TOUCH SCREEN

key).

c.Simplescalefunction

1) Enable the scale, by pressing the middle of the platform.

2) Wait for few seconds and when the display shows “0.0”, the scale is ready for weighing.

3) Get on the scale and wait without moving; after few seconds the display shows your weight. Do not

lean on anything during the measurement to avoid modifying the detected values.

4) Get off the scale. The display keeps showing the weight for some seconds and then the scale

switches off automatically.

d.Enteryourpersonaldata

1) With switched off scale, press the “O/I” key. “P0” will blink on the display indicating person “1”: if you

wish to change memory area (memories from P0 to P9 ) press the symbols “▲” or “▼”.

Once the memory area has been selected, confirm by pressing “SET” (TOUCH SCREEN key). Caution: In

case no memory area is selected within 4 seconds, the scale selects the last memory area used automatically;

then, the display shows “0.0”.

2) Then, the display shows the shape of a man and of a woman. Use the keys “▲” and “▼” to select and

confirm by pressing “SET”.

3) Then, enter your height (from 100 cm to 220 cm) using the symbols “▲” or “▼” to increase or decrease

the value. The display shows the value in cm or in ft. Press SET to confirm.

4) Use the symbols “▲” or “▼” once again to enter the age (from 10 to 80) and confirm by pressing “SET”.

5) Now, the scale has stored all your data; the display shows “0.0”.

Get on the scale paying attention to position your bare feet correctly on the two electrodes. The display

shows the following data three times sequentially:

- your weight

- the percentage of fat present in the body (FAT)

- “Thin” and the related blue LED, “Healthy” and the related green LED, or “Fat” and the related red LED,

indicating the classification of your percentage of fat with reference to the parameters of the “bodyfat table”

- the percentage of water present in your body (TBW)

- the percentage of skeletal musculature ( )

- the basal metabolic rate (KCAL)

- the body mass index (BMI)

Compare the obtained percentage of fat (FAT) with the parameters given in the “bodyfat table”: if it is outside

the normal values, get medical advice.

Moreover, evaluate the percentage of water (TBW) according to paragraph “% of water”, the percentage of

musculature according to paragraph “% of skeletal musculature”, the basal metabolic rate according to

paragraph “basal metabolic rate” and the body mass index value according to the parameters given by the

“BMI table”. Should the data not be included in the standard range, get medical advice.

6) The scale switches off automatically after having displayed all data for the third 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 10 seconds.

e.Calculationofweight,%ofbodyfat,%ofbodywater,%ofskeletalmusculature,andbasal

metabolicratevalue

1) With switched off scale, press the “O/I” key. The last selected memory area will blink on the display

(“P0” indicating person “01”; “P1” indicating person “02”): if you wish to change memory area (memories

from P0 to P9 ) press the symbols “▲” or “▼”.

2) When the display shows “0.0”, get on the scale and await the display of your data (see item 5 of the

paragraph “Enter your 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 “Err”, it means that an error occurred during the measurement. Repeat the whole procedure

again. In case of overweight, the display shows “OL”. In this case, remove immediately the weight from the

balance in order not to damage its mechanism.
