Place the platform on a hard, flat surface where there is minimal vibration to ensure safe and
accurate measurement.
Avoid excessive impact or vibration to the platform .
Doing so may damage the platform or cause it to malfunction,or may cause setting to be erased.
Do not use or store this platform in the following locations.
·Locations that are exposed to direct sunlight, near to heaters, or exposed directly to air from air conditioning units, etc.
·Locations where there are severe temperature changes or a large amount of vibration.
·Locations with high levels of humidity or moisture.
Doing so may damage the platform or cause it to malfunction.
Do not step on the platform when your body is wet (immediately after a shower or bath, etc.)
Be sure to thoroughly dry your body and feet before using the platform. Failure to do so may cause you to slip or fall, resulting in injury. Also, the
platform cannot take accurate measurements if your body or feet are wet.
Keep away from water.
Do not use boiling water, benzene, thinner, etc. to clean the platform.

time, it is advisable to remove the batteries before storage.)
Do not use the platform near other products such as microwave ovens that emit electromagnetic waves.
Doing so may cause the platform to malfunction, preventing accurate measurements.
Another person should assist persons with disabilities who may not be able to take a measurement alone.
Getting Accurate Readings
To ensure accuracy, readings should be taken without clothing and under consistent conditions of hydration. Always remove your
socks or stockings, and be sure the soles of your feet are clean before stepping on the measuring platform. Be sure that the arch of
each foot is aligned with the center of the measuring platform. Don't worry if your feet appear too large for the unit, accurate readings
can still be obtained if your toes overhang the platform. It is best to take readings at the same time of day. Try to wait about two hours
after getting up, eating, or strenuous exercise before taking measurements. While readings taken under other conditions may not have
the same absolute values, they are accurate for determining the percentage change as long as the readings are taken in a consistent
manner. To monitor your progress, compare your weight and body fat percentage readings taken under the same conditions over a
period of time.
Note: An accurate reading will not be possible if the soles of your feet are not clean, if your knees are bent or if you are sitting down.
