BEFORE YOU BEGIN
Body Mass Index
The Body Mass Index (BMI) is a number that is often called upon to evaluate body weight.
Recommended Measurement Time
To obtain an accurate reading, we recommend that you always take the measurement in the same environment and at the same time of day. Avoid taking measurements under the following conditions:
• Immediately after a bath or exercise
• After drinking alcohol or a large amount of water
• Less than 2 hours after a meal
If you take a measurement under any of the above conditions, the
calculated body composition may be signicantly different from the
actual composition due to changes in water content in the body.

pets, rugs) may cause the scale to give an inaccurate weight reading.

on the electrodes. Remove your shoes and socks before stepping onto
the scale.
• Step onto the scale with your feet parallel to each other and your weight
evenly distributed.
