Using your Scale
As mentioned earlier, place the scale on a level, hard surface. If you are using the
Eocene Home Control box, place the scale near the box.
Step on the scale bare footed, remove socks if you are wearing them and stand still.
Do not hold or touch any other objects with you hands, legs or any other part of
your body to avoid in correct readings.
As soon as you step on the scale, it begins weighing. At rst it displays the weight
and the the screen will display“0000” while other parameters are measured and
then soon, the measured weight is displayed.
If a user is assigned, the BMI, Body fat, water, muscle and bone readings will be
shown.
In order to weigh only your weight, wear a pair of shoes and stand still on the scale
with your weight distributed evenly between both legs. The scale will display your
weight and then display“Err” as it couldn’t measure othet parameters.
