Intended use

•This equipment can be used in the screening of certain adult diseases and conditions related to body weight and composition.

•It can be used in the monitoring and prevention of conditions caused by excessive deposits of fat tissue such as diabetes, hyperlipidemia, cholelithiasis and fatty liver.

•It can be used in the monitoring of changes in individuals‘ body composition related to differences in the ratio of fat tissue to lean.

•It can be used to assess the effectiveness of individuals‘ nutrition and exercise programmers, both for health and physical fitness.

•The TANITA Body Composition Analyzer is indicated for use in the measurement of weight and impedance , and the estimation of body mass index (BMI), total body fat percent, total body water percent and weight , muscle mass (skeletal and smooth), physique rating, bone mass, visceral fat rating with healthy range, basal metabolic rate (BMR), metabolic age, and target body fat percent with predicted weight and fat mass, using B IA (Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis). The device is indicated for use for healthy children 5-17 years old and healthy adults with active, moderately active, to inactive lifestyles.

Eng

Before use

(For Your Safety)

Prohibited

Always…

Do not handle the plug with a wet hand.

Such action may result in electric shock, fire, or leakage.

Keep this equipment away from flammable gas and oxygen rich environment.

No modification of this equipment is allowed.

There is a risk of electrocution or injury. Nor can precise analysis be guaranteed.

Do not use double adapters.

May result in fire.

Use only a correctly wired outlet.

Only genuine cables and equipments are allowed.

Always…

Continually monitor both the subject and the equipment for anomalies.

Should an anomaly with the subject or the equipment be discovered, take appropriate action, such as stopping the equipment, while ensuring the safety of the subject.

Unplug the equipment from the wall outlet when it will not be in use for long periods of time.

Do not interpret analysis results yourself (including evaluating measurements and formulating exercise programmes based on results, etc.).

Weight loss and exercise based on self-analysis could be detrimental to you health. Always follow the advice of a qualified professional.

This equipment is designated a Class B IT equipment (mainly for systems intended to be used in domestic environments) and CE (EMC), but weak equipment may be affected.

If you connect your computer or peripherals, please use the compliance with IEC60601-1 (EN60601-1). Or if using the compliance with IEC60950 (EN60950), power must be supplied from themedical isolating transformer. Keep at a distance of 1.5m between each equipment during operation. If you ignore this requirement, may cause electrical shock of patients or operation.

For Accurate Measurements

Avoid measuring after hard exercise.

May result in measurement errors. Please take measurements after sufficient rest.

Avoid measuring after over-eating or over-drinking, and when severely dehydrated.

May result in measurement errors. For greater accuracy, avoid using directly after waking up. Use at the same time on each occasion, at least three hours after eating.

Do not take measurements while using transmitters, such as mobile phones, which may affect readings.

Bare feet should be placed correctly on the electrode panel for measurement.

Use the device under the same conditions and in the same position as much as possible to track changes.

Readings are greatly affected by the level of hydration and position of the body. Please use at the same time each day, under the same conditions and in the same body position.

Avoid measuring in locations of greatly differing temperature.

May result in measurement errors. When the equipment has been moved to a location ±20ºC, allow to stand for at least 2 hours before using.

Also, make sure the soles of feet are free of excess dirt, as this may also act as a barrier to the mild current.

Use in a stable location.

Errors in measurements may occur when the device is used in an unstable location.
