Technical specifications Power supply: 4.5 V DC from three 1.5 V AAA batteries (not supplied) Units of measure: Metric (kg)/British (lb) Maximum load: 180 kg (100 g increments) Bluetooth: Bluetooth ver. 4.0 Measurements: (W x D x H): 30.2 x 30.2 x 2.2 cm Weight: 1.55 kg We reserve the right to make changes! Information The device is designed to measure personal weight and processes data from an accurate digital scale built into the base. This weighing method is fast, safe and accurate and provides the result in no time. In cooperation with your Android or iOS smartphone, in which you install our „SenssunHealth“ application or another compatible application, the scale can also provide other information via the smartphone, such as: • Measurement of body weight (Weight kg/lbs) • Body Mass Index (BMI) • Measurement of body fat (Body Fat - measurement in%) • Measurement of water content (Body Water - measurement in%) • Measurement of the proportion of skeletal muscle (Skeletal Muscle - measurement in%) • Measurement of bone fraction (Bone - measurement in%)
Page 11
QR code to download the application: Measurement principle This scale works on the principle of BIA, bioelectrical impedance analysis. In a few seconds, it is possible to determine the proportion of the desired substances in the body by means of an imperceptible, completely insignifi cant and inconvenient current. By means of this measurement of electrical resistance (impedance) and counting of constants, resp. individual values (age, height, sex, degree of activity) it is possible to determine the proportion of body fat and other variables in the body. Muscle tissue and water have good electrical conductivity and thus low resistance. Bones and adipose tissue, on the other hand, have low conductivity because fat cells and bones, due to their high resistance, hardly conduct current. Please note that the values measured by the diagnostic weight are only close to the real values based on the medical analysis of the body. Only a specialist can perform accurate determination of body fat, water, muscle mass and bone structure using medical methods (eg computed tomography). General advices • Weigh yourself, if possible, always at the same time of day (preferably in the morning), after the need, on an empty stomach and without clothing, in order to achieve comparable results. • Important for measurement: Body fat determination must be performed barefoot, it is advisable to have slightly damp feet. Completely dry feet can lead to unsatisfactory results because they then show too little conductivity. • Stand straight and calm during the measurement. • After unusual physical exertion, wait a few hours before measuring. • After getting up, wait about 15 minutes for the water to dissipate properly in the body. • Only the long-term trend is important. Short-term weight variations within a few days are usually due to fl uid loss; however, water in the body plays an important role in good physical condition.

Preparation Power supply The device works on three 1.5 V AAA batteries. Batteries are not supplied, so insert them into the scale after purchasing. Before using the device, 3 AAA batteries (not supplied) must be inserted into the device. 1 Open the battery cover (gently push the latch in the direction of the arrow and lift the cover). 2 I nsert three 1.5 V AAA batteries. Observe the correct polarity + and -. 3 Close the battery cover. Advice • In normal use, the batteries should last for several months. If the display is no longer lit, replace both batteries with new ones. Notes • Do not leave the scale control in very hot or humid places. • Do not use a new battery with an old one. • If you will not be using the balance for a long time, remove the batteries. This will prevent possible damage to the balance due to battery leakage and subsequent corrosion.

Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR) is the amount of energy a body needs in complete peace to maintain its core functions (eg, a 24-hour bed rest). Basically, this value depends on weight, height, and age. It is displayed on a diagnostic scale in kcal / day and is calculated using a scientifically recognized Harris-Benedict formula. This amount of energy needs your body in any case and must be delivered in the form of food. Lower energy intake for a long time can lead to health risks. Active Metabolic Rate (AMR) is the amount of energy a body consumes in its active state in one day. The energy consumption of a person increases with increasing physical activity and is determined by the diagnostic level by the specified level of activity (1-5). In order to maintain the current weight, the energy consumed must be supplied to the body again in the form of food and drink. If less energy is consumed for a longer period of time than the body consumes, the difference will be mainly offset by the stored fat reserves and the weight is reduced. Conversely, if more energy than the calculated Active Metabolic Value (AMR) is received for a longer period of time, the body is not able to consume excess energy, stores it in the form of fat, and increases the weight. Time dependence of results Remember that only a long-term trend is important. Short-term weight variations within a few days are typically caused by fluid loss. The importance of results is driven by changes in total weight and percentage of body fat, body water, and muscle mass, and also depends on the time period for which these changes will occur. Sudden changes within a few days need to be distinguished from mid-term (within weeks) and long-term changes (within months). As a rule of thumb, short-term weight changes are almost exclusively changes in body water content, while medium and long-term changes may also affect fat and muscle mass. • If you lose weight for a short time, but the amount of body fat increases or stays the same, you have lost only water - eg. after training, sauna or diet, limited to quick weight loss only. • On the other hand, if your medium weight increases and the amount of fat decreases or stays the same, you might have a valuable muscle mass. • If you lose weight and body fat at the same time, your diet works - you lose fat. • Ideally, it is advisable to support your diet with physical activity, exercise or strength training. In this way you can achieve an increase in muscle mass in the medium term.
Warning indicators 1 „Lo“ Weak batteries. It is necessary to replace both batteries with new ones. 2 „Err“ The maximum load capacity of the balance has been exceeded.
