function.
1. Press the [ ] key.
The arrow next to P T t will flash.
2. Enter the clothes weight.

9. Taking Measurement.
Step on the weighing platform in bare feet. Make sure heels
are placed on the posterior electrodes, and the front part of
the feet are in contact with the anterior electrodes.
10.Measure the Impedance.
When the grips are grasped with both hands,
will appear at the bottom of the display and the
impedance measurement will begin.
The marks will disappear one by one during the
measurement; after five full cycles, the measurement will be complete.
ƽ
Grab the grips (two locations) only after the body
weight figure on the display has stabilized.
Do not step off the Weighting Platform until
the “
” symbols disappear completely.
In cases when measurements of the body fat ratio
or the quantity of fat are abnormally small or the
error message (E01) is shown on the display, the
probable reason is that the soles of the feet and the
electrodes are not in full contact. Make sure you
step on the Weighing Platform so there is contact
between the electrodes and the soles of your feet.
If the problem is not solved this way, it is possible
that the soles of the feet have calluses and the
resistance is too great. Therefore, place about 0.5
ml of water on each of the four electrodes where
the feet touch before measurement.
11.Measurement Is Completed.
Once the body weight and impedance measurements have
been completed, the overall body fat percentage will be
shown at the bottom of the display and a buzzer will sound.
If the printer is ON, the measurement results will be printed out.
* With regard to the measurement result, please refer to P. 22.
If the printer is OFF, the measurement results (predicted
muscle mass, fat mass, and body fat percentage) for each
body part can be displayed using the ten-key pad.
Select the number of the desired body part on the ten-key pad.
