Do not place the analyser on any of the following surfaces. Doing so may cause errors in the
measurement values.
• Sloped floor
• Soft surface, such as a rug
Measuring the weight of a baby or pet
Displays the difference in weight between the 1st and 2nd measurements to
measure the weight of a baby or pet. For the measurement method, see page 7.
Measuring only your weight
Measures only your weight. For the measurement method, see page 7.
The automatic 0.00 kg calibration and
correction function
The power is switched on and measurement is started by
simply stepping on the analyser. Accordingly, the analyser is
calibrated automatically to 0.00 kg periodically while the power
is switched off. However, calibration may not be performed
correctly in the situations listed below. Before using the
analyser for measurement, always place the analyser on a
hard surface with nothing on top of the analyser, and then
press either the Power button ( ) or Enter button ( ).
• The analyser was stored standing up
• The analyser was stored with something on top of the
analyser
• The analyser was picked up and moved
When the measurement values are obviously incorrect, perform the following procedure, and then measure again.
Place the analyser on a hard flat
surface.
Press either the Power button () or
Enter button ( ).
Make sure that “ ” is displayed.
Do not place anything on the analyser
or apply weight to the analyser while
“ ” is displayed.
Measuring body composition
The following 3 methods can be used to measure with this analyser.
Measure after automatic recognition of the user
The power is switched on and measurement is started by simply stepping on the analyser.
In addition, the user is recognized automatically from the registered users, and the measurement
results are recorded. (Limited to when the user number has been specified and measurement
has been performed at least once in the past.)
Step on while the power is off Measuring User number is displayed
Measure after specifying the user number
Specify the number of a registered user, and then measure. The user is matched reliably with
their registered data (more so than with automatic user recognition), and then the measurement
results are displayed. For the user registration and measurement methods, see pages 5 to 8.
Measure using Guest mode
An unregistered user can be measured. The measurement values cannot be recorded. For the
measurement method, see page 6.
Press the Enter button ().
