Initial Start-Up
General Instructions
A-rivals Glass Body Analyzer applies BIA (Bio-impedance Analysis) technology. A small amount of weak current flows through the human
body so as to detect the bio-impedance and estimate body fat. The electrical current is small and may not be felt.
This BIA technology is safe, non-invasive, toxic-free and harmless. It also possesses the characteristics of simple operation and abundant
information.
The current mentioned above is less than 1mA. However, please be aware that anyone with a wearable or implantable medical electronic
instrument, such as a pacemaker, must avoid using this device.
The intended use of this device is for adult’s indoor use only.
Insert the Batteries
Open the battery door in the back of the scale.
Insert the batteries (4 x 1.5V AAA) into the battery compartment
