BMI is the recommended method for measurement of
overweight in adults. The borderline for overweight
and obesity is determined by BMI which is closely
linked to body fat. You can measure your weight
index using the BMI menu.
BMI is calculated by using the weight divided by the
height in squares. In the calculation, weight is in
kilogrammes, while height is in metres. The formula
is as follows:
BMI= [weight (kg)]/ [(Height) metres x (Height)
metres ]
1. When you enter the menu, the cursor will be in
the weight field. Use the keypad to enter your
weight. Press / to switch the cursor between
weight and height fields.

measurement for height is centimetres (cm). However,

between 10 to 300 cm.
