Safety notes:
• The scales must not be used by persons with medical implants (e.g. heart
pacemakers). Otherwise their function could be impaired.
• Do not use during pregnancy. Inaccurate measurements may be caused by the
amniotic fluid.
• Caution! Do not stand on the scale with wet feet and do not step on the scale
when its surface is wet – danger of slipping!
• Batteries are highly dangerous if swallowed. Keep batteries and scale out of reach of small
children. If batteries are swallowed, get medical help immediately.
• Keep children away from packing materials (danger of suffocation).
• Batteries must not be charged or reactivated by other means, taken apart, thrown into a fire
or short-circuited.
General notes:
• The unit is for personal use only and is not intended for medical or commercial applications.
• Please note that technically related measuring tolerances are possible, as the scale is not ca-
librated for professional medical applications.
• The capacity of the scale is 150 kg (330 lb, 24 st.). For weight measurement and bone mass
measurement, the results are shown in 100 g increments (0.2 lb, 1/4 st.). The measuring re-
sults of the body fat, body water and muscle percentage are shown in 0.1% increments.
• On delivery, the scale is set to "cm" and "kg". At the back of the scales is a switch with which
you can switch between "inches", "pounds" and "stones" (lb, st.).
• Place the scale on a firm level floor; a firm floor covering is required for correct measurement.
• The scale should be cleaned occasionally with a damp cloth. Do not use abrasive detergents
and never immerse the scale in water.
• Protect the scale against hard knocks, moisture, dust, chemicals, major temperature fluctua-
tions and heat sources which are too close (stove, heating radiators).
