Troubleshooting

Then...
The unit's "Weight Mode" has been set to measure your weight in units of stone-
pounds or kilograms. Refer to the Selecting the Weight Mode (lb, kg, or st-lb) on p.5
if you would like to change the setting back to pounds (lb).
Check foot alignment. Make sure you wait for "0.0" to appear before stepping on the
platform. Check to see that the batteries are fresh and are in the correct positions.
No data (gender or height) has been stored in the memory.
Vibration will interfere with measurement of the fat percentage. Be sure to stand erect
and still on the measuring platform. Do not bend your knees. Be sure that shoes and
socks are removed and check foot alignment. Step off and repeat steps on p.8.
Be sure you are measuring in the correct user mode (male or female), and that the soles
of your feet are clean and properly aligned with the guides on the measuring platform.
Dehydration, exercise, foot calluses, etc. can interfere with measurement of the fat
percentage. Step off and repeat steps on p.8.
