SAFETY AND CAUTION
Please read these instructions carefully to familiarize yourself with the features
and operation of this unit before using.
IMPORTANT
This scale is NOT intended to be used by pregnant women. The result is inaccurate
and possible effects on the fetus are unknown.
INTENDED USE
This scale is intended to measure body weight and impedance, and to estimate
the percentage of body fat, body water, bone mass and muscle mass using BIA
(Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis). It is intended for use by healthy children (10-
17 years old) and healthy adults for body composition assessment in the home
environment. For body fat and body water estimates, always estimate in bare feet.
IMPORTANT: Although the BIA method uses a safe, low level of electrical current,
users with pacemakers or other electric medical devices or implants should not
operate this scale.

BATTERY PRECAUTIONS
• Dispose of old batteries properly. Do not dispose of old batteries in a fire.
• Do not leave batteries lying around where a young child or pet could
play with or swallow them. If the batteries are swallowed, contact a
physician immediately.
• Batteries may explode if mistreated. Do not attempt to recharge or
disassemble the batteries.
• Use only fresh batteries of required size and type. Do not mix old and
new batteries, different types of batteries, or rechargeable batteries of
different capacities.
SPECIAL NOTE ON BODY COMPOSITION ANALYSIS
This scale uses bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) technology to calculate
body fat %. This technology works by measuring the resistance (impedance)
of small electrical currents through your body.
When the user’s height and body impedance are known, the scale can accurately
determine total body water (TBW) and fat-free mass (FFM). Fat-free mass is then
subtracted from your total body weight to obtain your body fat mass.
This scale should be used while barefoot. Measurement errors can occur
if weighing while wearing socks or nylon stockings. To avoid slipping,
do not step on the scale with wet feet. Do not use the scale on carpet.

BATTERY INSTALLATION
This scale comes with 4 AAA batteries in the box.
To install the batteries, turn the scale over and remove the BATTERY
COMPARTMENT cover.
Insert 4 AAA batteries according to the polarity indicators inside the
BATTERY COMPARTMENT.
Replace the BATTERY COMPARTMENT cover.
TURNING THE SCALE ON AND OFF
This scale has an Auto-On and Auto-Off feature. The scale will automatically
turn on when the user steps on the platform and automatically turn off after
the user steps off the platform. This scale is ready to weigh, and does not
require tapping first before stepping on the scale.
CHANGING WEIGHING UNITS
To change the current weighing unit, use the “kg/st/lb” button on the bottom
side of the scale. Notice the display will change between kg, st:lb, and lb with
each button press. The setting will only blink once.

ENTERING PERSONAL DATA
Before you can use this scale’s body composition features (such as body fat),
you must enter your personal data. The scale can remember personal data for
up to 8 different users.
1. Press the SET button to enter setup mode.
2. P1 will flash in the lower left on the display.
3. Use the and buttons to choose a P number for each user
(between 1 and 8) and press SET to confirm.
4. The display will then prompt you to select your body physique. Use the
and buttons to choose the icon that corresponds with your personal
body physique (female, male, female athlete, male athlete) and press SET
to confirm.
5. The display will then prompt you to select your height. Use the and
buttons to change the height in half-inch increments and press SET
to confirm.
6. The display will prompt you to select your age. Use the and buttons
to change the number and press SET to confirm.
7. The scale will return to weighing mode after confirming your personal data.

WITHOUT ENTERING PERSONAL DATA:
1. Step onto the scale to activate the Auto-On feature, making sure your bare
feet are resting on the metal strips on the left and right of the scale platform.
2. If the user is not automatically recognized, only the body weight information is
displayed. The number will be displayed for 6 seconds. The scale will then turn
off automatically.
WITH PERSONAL DATA ENTERED:
1. Step onto the scale to activate the Auto-On feature, making sure your bare
feet are resting on the metal strips on the left and right of the scale platform.
2. The scale should automatically recognize the user and display their User ID
(for example, P1).
3. After the User ID is confirmed, the body composition data, such as body fat,
