Body Weight
Whilst the body weight is
shown in the display in kg,
one of the 9 segments is
shown in the bar below it.
Here the position of the
active segment indicates the
assessment of the body
weight mentioned on the
basis of the BMI figure.
The BMI (Body Mass Index)
is a measure for the health
risk resulting from overweight
or underweight.
On the basis of categorisation
of the BMI, doctors distin-
guish between "underweight”,
"normal weight”, "overweight”
and "obese”.

Individual
Recommendation
This body analysis scale
determines your individual
ideal condition in regards to
weight and body fat content,
based on your personal data
and recommendations by
health experts.
It also determined your total
body water content and mus-
cle mass.
Please remember that mus-
cles also contain body water,
which is already calculated in
the body water analysis.
Therefore, the total result will
always exceed 100%.
