4. Specify the Height
Select the height by turning the height dial.
The display screen should now display “0.0”. At this point the unit has been programmed,
and is ready to take the readings.
Note: The unit has an automatic shut-down function—if you do not step on the platform within 30
seconds of entering your data, the unit will automatically shut off.
5. Step On the Platform
Wait until “0.0” appears on the display screen before stepping onto the platform.
You need to be barefoot, and the soles of your feet need to be clean and dry. Be sure that the
heel and ball of each foot is directly on top of the electrodes on the measuring platform.
Stand erect on the platform. Accurate readings can still be obtained even if your toes
overhang the platform.
Your weight measurement will be shown first. Next, “00000” will appear in the display and
then the zeroes will disappear one by one while your body fat percentage is calculated.
Continue to stand erect on the platform. The values of body fat percentage and body weight
will now be displayed alternately at two-second intervals. If you remain on the platform, the
display will continue for about 30 seconds, and then the power will automatically turn off.
If you step off the platform, the alternating display of body fat percentage and body weight
will be repeated three times, and then the power will automatically turn off.
