TAKING WEIGHT AND BODY FAT READINGS
UNDERSTANDING YOUR READING
Healthy Range Indicator (Standard Adults only*)
Your body fat monitor/scale automatically compares your body fat reading to the Healthy
Body Fat Range chart.
Following your body fat percentage reading, a black bar will flash along the bottom of the
display, identifying where you fall within the Body Fat Ranges for your age and gender.
For example, if the squares appear above (0) area your range is within the Healthy Range
– if they appear over (-) area, your reading is below the Healthy Range. For more about
the Healthy Range, see page 2.
(-) : Underfat; below the healthy body fat range. Increased risk for health
problems.
(0) : Healthy; within the healthy body fat percentage range for your
age/gender.
(+) : Overfat; above the healthy range. Increased risk for health problems.
