Page 3: Introduction
SERIAL NUMBER: Staple your purchase receipt here The Full Body Sensor Body Composition Monitor and Scale is easy to use. The monitor calculates the estimated values for body fat percentage, skeletal muscle percentage and visceral fat level using the BI (Bioelectrical Impedance) Method. -
Page 4: Safety Information
Do not use this monitor if you have a cardiac pacemaker or other implanted medical device. The Full Body Sensor Body Composition Monitor and Scale passes an extremely weak electrical current of 50kHz and less than 500µA through your body when taking a measurement to determine the amount of fat tissue. This weak current is not felt while using the monitor. - Page 5 CARE AND MAINTENANCE Do not disassemble or modify the unit. Changes or modifications not approved by Omron Healthcare will void the user warranty. Do not subject the monitor to strong shocks, such as dropping the unit on the floor.
