NOTE: It is important to:
• Aim the silver stripe of the Light Wand vertically toward the upper portion of the body.
• Keep the body site to be estimated relaxed (do not permit subject to flex muscle area being estimated).
• Use the Light Shield to block the external light. ALWAYS avoid estimations under strong lights (e.g. direct
sunlight) because errors may occur.
• Press GREEN BUTTON on the Light Wand.
The display will then show a decimal point following the number “1”. The number “2” will then be displayed.
CAUTION: Do not move the Light Wand while the decimal point is illuminated. The actual
estimation is being made at that time.
• Remove the Light Wand and replace it on the same site on the body. Press GREEN BUTTON on the Light
Wand. The display will then show a decimal point following the number “2.”
7) The Relative Body Fat Estimation is displayed.
To Estimate Another Site or Repeat an Estimation - Place the Light Wand firmly on the particular body site and follow steps
outlined in 6 and 7.
OFF Message - An OFF Message will appear and the FUTREX-5500A/WL Automatic Power Down feature will turn the unit OFF if
the user has not pressed any key for 6 minutes. To use the unit again, turn the Power Switch OFF and then ON again.
NOTE: This relative body fat is not a direct “Percentage” estimation. This value, however, can be used as a guide to
monitor changes in fat distribution within the location estimated.
