On delivery, the scale is set to “cm” and “kg”. At the back of the scales is a switch with which you can
switch between “pounds” and “stones” (lb, st.).
•
Place the scale on a firm level floor; a firm floor covering is required for correct measurement.
•
You can clean the scale with a damp cloth and a little washing up liquid, if required. Never immerse the
scale in water or rinse it under running water.
•
Protect the scale against hard knocks, moisture, dust, chemicals, major temperature fluctuations and
heat sources which are too close (stove, heating radiators).
•
Repairs may only be carried out by customer service or authorized dealers. Before submitting any com-
plaint, first check the batteries and replace them if necessary.
•
Please dispose of the blanket in accordance with the directive 2002/96/EG – WEEE (Waste Elec-
trical and Electronic Equipment). If you have any queries, please refer to the local authorities re-
sponsible for waste disposal.
2. Operation
2.1 Batteries
If present, pull the battery insulating strip off the battery compartment cover or remove
the battery’s protective film and insert the battery according to the polarity. If the scale
fails to operate, remove the battery completely and insert it again. Your scale is
equipped with a “replace battery” indicator. When the scale is operated with a battery
which is too weak, “Lo
” appears in the display field and the scale automatically
switches off. The battery must be replaced in this case (2 x 3 V lithium battery CR2032).
Used batteries do not belong in the household waste. The used, completely drained
standard and rechargeable batteries must be disposed of in specially marked collection con-
tainers, at toxic waste collection points or electrical product retailers. You are legally obligat-
ed to dispose of the batteries.
Note: Batteries containing pollutants are marked with the following symbols: Pb = Battery
contains lead, Cd = Battery contains cadmium, Hg = Battery contains mercury.
2.2 Measuring weight only
Step onto the upper part of the scale. The entire display (Fig. 1) appears up
to “0.0” (Fig. 2) as a self-test (tap-on technology).
Now the scale is ready to measure your weight. Stand on the scale without
moving about and distribute your weight evenly on both legs. The scale im-
mediately begins to measure your weight. Your measured weight is displayed
shortly after this (Fig 3). The scale switches off a few seconds after you step
down from it.
2.3 Measuring weight, body fat, body water and muscle
percentage
First your personal parameters must be stored;
–
Step onto the upper part of the weighing area and wait until “0.0” (Fig. 2) ap-
pears on the display. Then press “SET”. Now the first memory preset flashes
in the display (Fig. 4). Select the desired preset by pressing the buttons “up”
P or “down” O and confirm the desired preset with the “SET” button.
–
Now height in cm (inch) flashes in the display (Fig. 5). Set the desired value
by briefly pressing or holding the buttons “up” P or “down” O and confirm
it by pressing “SET”.
