(open fires, radiators).
- Repairs may only be performed by Beurer Customer Service or by accredited retailers.
However, always test the batteries and replace them if necessary, before returning for
repairs. If repair work is necessary, however, first remove the batteries and then pack the
personal scales in the original box prior to transportation.
- All our personal scales comply with EU guideline 89/336 + relevant supplements. Should
you have any questions regarding operation and usage of our appliances, please contact
your local retailers or Beurer Customer Service.
- Clean the housing of your personal scales with a soft and slightly damp cloth. Do not use
any aggresive detergents and do not submerge the scales.

(3-03”-7-03”)
can be preset for
the body fat analysis. The scales can accept a maximum load of 150 kg
(330 lb, 24 St)
. The
weight measurement is displayed in 100 g
(0,2 lb, 1/4 St)
divisions. The measuring results for
body fat are displayed in 0.1% divisions. The results of the body fat and water analysis are dis-
played in 0.1% steps.

2. Operation
2.1 Batteries
Pull off the battery insulating strip on the cover of the battery compartment and remove the battery’s pro-
tective film and insert the battery according to polarity. If the scales show no function remove the batteries
completely and put them in again.
Your personal scales are fitted with a ”replace battery” display. If the personal scales are operated using an
extremely weak battery, the message ”Lo” will appear on the display panel and the personal scales switch off
automatically. In this case, the batteries must be replaced (BG75: 1 piece 9V alkaline battery 6LR61, BG50:
1 piece 3V lithium battery CR 2032).
Spent batteries and rechargeable batteries do not constitute normal household waste! They are considered
to be toxic waste and, as such, should be disposed of in special containers, toxic waste collection points or
brought to electrical goods dealers. You are legally obliged to dispose of the batteries.
Note: Batteries containing pollutant substances are marked as follows: Pb = Battery con-
tains lead, Cd = Battery contains cadmium, Hg = Battery contains mercury.
Position the personal scales on a firm, flat surface; a firm flooring is a basic requirement
for correct weight measurement.
