Congratulations! You now own an exciting new tool created to help

you follow the Weight Watchers®program. Spend some time getting

to know your PointsPlus Calculator to ensure you get the maximum

• Keeps track of your personal information, like your age, height

and weight.

• Calculates your daily PointsPlus Target and tracks your

weekly PointsPlus Allowance.

• Allows you to edit your daily target and weekly allowance.

• Tracks all the PointsPlus values you use each day and week.

• Works just like any standard calculator.

Certain foods, especially sugar-free foods, ay contain sugar alcohols, which ay reduce total

PointsPlus®values. These ingredients–and also regular alcohol–are not typically included on

food labels. As a result, you ight notice discrepancies with the values you see in your lists and the

values you calculate with the Weight Watchers®PointsPlus Calculator. For the ost accurate

values for sugar-free foods and foods containing alcohol, please use the food lists in the Pocket

Guide or Co panion books, or, if you’re a subscriber, use the database on Weight Watchers®eTools.

Target. If you need more information about the daily PointsPlus Target

Now that you’ve personalized your calculator with your daily

PointsPlus Target, you are ready to begin tracking. Your calculator

can track both the PointsPlus value that you calculate and the

PointsPlus value for foods you already know.

To track the PointsPlus value that you have calculated:

Every time you calculate a PointsPlus value

for a new food, the word USE? will appear on

your screen. (See page 4 for calculating

PointsPlus values.) Press ENTER to tell your

calculator to subtract this PointsPlus value

from your daily PointsPlus Target or press

C/CE to exit.

If you are having more than one serving of

the same food, you can multiply the serving

and the calculator will calculate the total

PointsPlus value. To multiply the number

of servings, press the X key.

Put in the number of servings. (In this

example two servings are shown.)

Then press ENTER to subtract that value from

your daily PointsPlus Target, or press C/CE

to exit. The PointsPlus values you have

remaining for the day will be shown.

TRACK YOUR DAILY PointsPlus®VALUES

1041 WW Calculat rUserGuide_FINAL_Lay ut 1 6/27/11 3:33 PM Page 8

If you are not having a full serving of the

food you calculated, use the divide function

(the ÷ key) for your calculator to provide

the PointsPlus®value for the portion you

are having.

NOTE: According to the Weight Watchers®plan, when you have more

than one or only a portion of a serving, the calculator accounts for

all the nutrition information you have entered and does not simply

multiply or divide the PointsPlus value of one serving.

If you already know the PointsPlus value of a food, you can

track those foods without going through the previous steps.

Press the PointsPlus key and you will see

CALCULATE? on the screen.

Press the DOWN ARROW key to see the word

USE? Enter in the known PointsPlus value of

that food and press ENTER.

The value will be subtracted from your daily

target and you’ll now see your remaining

daily PointsPlus values for the day.

1041 WW Calculat rUserGuide_FINAL_Lay ut 1 6/27/11 3:33 PM Page 9

Press the key to review. The PointsPlus

values you have left for that day will appear.

Press the DOWN ARROW key to see how much

of your weekly PointsPlus Allowance you

have used.

In addition to your daily PointsPlus Target, the plan allows you to

have a maximum weekly allowance of 49. Please note, if you use

more PointsPlus values than you have in your daily target, your

calculator will automatically put the additional values towards your

0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5,

weekly allowance. If your weekly allowance

used surpasses 49 by any amount, your

calculator will let you know you have

exceeded 49. See example screen shown.

Because your calculator tracks your PointsPlus values for

seven days, you can see how you’ve used your PointsPlus

values in past days.

After viewing your weekly PointsPlus

Allowance used (see previous page) press

the DOWN ARROW key again to see your

information from previous days, starting

with Day 1 of tracking.

Continue to press the DOWN ARROW key

to scroll through past days and the daily

PointsPlus values used.
