TO ESTIMATE PERCENT BODY FAT:
1)
Turn Power Switch ON.
The display will show a software version number (e.g. AO.51) and will then start a 15 second countdown. The display will
show Sd.
2)
Insert Light Wand into Optical Standard. Be sure the white stripe from the Light Wand is aligned with the white stripe from
the Optical Standard.
3)
Press the ZERO ADJUST Key.
The display will now show 0.0. The zero adjustment has been made.
Remove Light Wand from the Optical Standard.
Install the Light Shield on the Wand as shown in the sketch (allow the Wand to protrude from the edge of the shield by
about 1/4 of an inch). The Light Shield was provided to ensure that no external light interferes with the estimation of
percent body fat. Therefore, this shield should always be used when estimating percent body fat.
The FUTREX-5000A/WL is ready to start the body fat estimation sequence.
4)
The printer will ask "Wrestler Cal: 1 = YES, 2 = NO". If the desire is to measure a wrestler press the "1" key, otherwise
press "2".
