Before using, make sure the device is intact with no visible damage. If you have any doubts, do not use the
device and contact the retailer.
Keep the plastic bag used for packaging out of reach of children: suffocation hazard.
This device must only be used for its intended purpose and in the manner indicated in the instructions.
All other uses are considered improper and therefore hazardous. The manufacturer cannot be considered
responsible for any damage due to improper or incorrect use.
This device can be used by children on their own from the age of 8 upwards.
• Individuals with reduced physical, sensory or mental capacities or unskilled people must only use the
product if previously instructed on its use, in safety and only if informed of the dangers connected to the
product itself. Children must not play with the device. Cleaning and maintenance operations must not be
performed by children without adult supervision.
In the event of a failure and/or malfunction, do not tamper with the device.
Always contact your retailer for repairs.
Handle the scale with care, protect it against knocks, extreme temperature fluctuations, humidity, dust,
direct sunlight and sources of heat.
Do NOT allow liquids to penetrate into the body of the scale.
This appliance is not waterproof. Do NOT leave and do NOT use the scale in water-saturated environments;
humidity rates greater than 85% or contact with water or other liquids may cause corrosion or compromise
proper scale operation.
Do NOT step onto the scale with wet feet, or if the surface of the scale is wet: slipping hazard.
ATTENTION! BEFORE USING THIS APPLIANCE
The body fat, water, and skeletal muscle percentages and the basal metabolism calculated
by the scale must only be considered to be indicative data. For further information, consult a
doctor or dietician.
Through the electrodes located on the platform, the scale sends a weak, low intensity electrical
current that passes through the body. The scale is not dangerous in any way.
The scale is not recommended for the following individuals as the data detected by the scale
may not be accurate:
o individuals wearing a pacemaker or other electronic medical device
o people with fever
o children under 10 years of age
o pregnant women
o individuals undergoing dialysis, with oedema in the legs or osteoporosis
o people who take cardiovascular medication
SAFE USE OF BATTERIES
Remove the batteries if the scale is not used for long periods of time and keep them in a well-ventilated
and dry place, at room temperature.
Do NOT recharge the batteries if they are not rechargeable.
Do NOT recharge rechargeable batteries using methods other than those indicated in the manual or using
unsuitable equipment.
NEVER expose the batteries to sources of heat or direct sunlight.
Failure to observe these instructions may result in damage to and/or the explosion of the batteries.
Do NOT throw the batteries into an open flame.
The removal or replacement of batteries must always be performed by an adult.
Keep the batteries far from the reach of children: swallowing batteries carries the risk of death.
If batteries are swallowed, immediately contact a doctor.
The acid contained in the batteries is corrosive. Avoid contact with the skin, eyes or garments
BODY COMPOSITION
The body composition is made up of:
• lean mass: all components without fat (water, muscle, connective tissue, and other non-fatty organic
components), bone, muscles, bowels, water, organs, and blood;
fatty mass: all fats that can be extracted from adipose tissue and other tissues/organs;
bone mass.
Through the electrodes located on the platform, the scale sends a weak, low intensity electrical current that
passes through the body. The different masses respond differently to the current: lean mass provides less
resistance than the opposite.
This body resistance is called bioelectrical impedance. The relative percentage of the various body masses
varies based on gender, age, and physical stature.
Body fat %
The body fat percentage indicated in the table below represents the total fat that is calculated by adding
essential fat and storage fat.
Essential fat is necessary for various bodily functions. The percentage is 3% in men and 12% in women.
Storage fat gives energy, protects against physical trauma, and insulates the body to preserve heat.
These percentages vary with the age and gender of the individual as shown in the table below.
If the percentages indicated by the scale do not fall within the values indicated as "normal" in the
table, we recommend consulting with your family physician.

% of muscle mass (% of skeletal muscle)
There are three different types of muscle: smooth, striated skeletal, and striated cardiac.
Smooth muscle is made of smooth fibres. These are found in the walls of the digestive tract, respiratory tract
and genital tract and in the wall of the venous and arterial blood vessels.
Human striated skeletal muscle is in the skeletal and facial muscles.
Cardiac striated muscle is found in the heart. This scale calculates the % of skeletal muscle and smooth
muscle tissue in the body. On average, 40% of body mass is made up of skeletal muscle. Men usually have
more pronounced muscles than women and the percentage may increase in those who practice sports.
The percentage of muscle starts to decrease with age.
Water %
The % of water in the body differs based on gender: in healthy adult women it ranges from 45% to 60% while
in men it ranges from 50% to 65%.
The percentage of water is greater in childhood and decreases with age.
Body weight variations can occur in a short period of time (hours), a medium period of time (days) or over a
long period (weeks).
Small variations in weight over a few hours is normal and due to water retention since extracellular water
(which includes the interstitial fluid, plasma, lymph and transcellular fluid) is the only part capable of varying
so rapidly.
When weight losses occur in just a few days, it is very likely that it is part of the total water.
Basal metabolic rate
The Basal Metabolic Rate, or BMR, is the minimum calories required for the human body to survive, in order
to carry out basic functions such as circulation, breathing, digestion, and maintaining body temperature. BMR
is calculated on a person when at physical and mental rest, lying down on their back, having not eaten for
12 hours, after at least 8 hours' sleep and with a constant body temperature of 20°C. Adult BMR varies from
1200 to 1800 kcal.
BMR is influenced by several factors: age, gender, height, body composition, fever / stress, nutritional state
and ambient temperature.
Considerations
When assessing your body composition trend, it is necessary to keep the following in mind:
A decrease in weight accompanied by no change in body fat or even an increase in body fat means that
your body only lost water (for example, after exercising, time in the sauna or a limited diet for rapid weight
loss).
An increase in weight accompanied by a decrease or no change in body fat indicates the development of
muscle mass.
When the weight and body fat decrease at the same time it means that your diet is working and volume is
being lost.
