Do not place this unit on cushioned floor surface

such as on carpet or a mat to avoid incorrect measurement.

The above scenario might

be displayed during measurement. Wait for a moment.

When all symbols are lighted, the preparation for a correct measurement has been taken. If the main unit is moved or a load is applied onto it before “0.0kg” is displayed, “Err (error)” might be displayed or incorrect

measurement might be taken.

Refer to TROUBLESHOOTING ( Page 9).

Do not touch or move the main unit or add objects on it before

“0.0kg” is displayed after the power is turned on. Otherwise, it might

cause incorrect measurement.

If you wear shoes, correct

measurement cannot be taken.

■ Measurement should be taken on level

and hard surface.

measurements a day at a room temperature of 23°C).

・Do not use rechargeable batteries. This could cause inaccurate operation.

■ When the Battery Low Indicator flashes, it indicates

running out of the battery.

・Dispose of the device, batteries and components according to applicable local regulations.

■ Replace the batteries after turning off the main unit

power.

Set the height.

・The setting range is 100.0~199.5cm.

Step on the main unit.

Use the automatic recognition function to take a measurement and record the data of body composition in the unit.

Once the height is conf irmed, “0.0kg” w ill be displayed aft er the date of

birth, gender and height ar e displayed.

Refer to CORRECT MEASUREMENT METHOD ( Page 5).

Touch the or button to change the height, and then touch

the (SET) button.
