Safety Information
To assure the correct use of this device, the following basic safety measures should always
be followed including the warnings and cautions listed in this instruction manual.
This device is intended for the use of adults to measure body weight, Body fat
percentage, body water percentage, Muscle percentage, body mass and basic active
metabolic rate.
The monitor is not intended to be a diagnostic device.
The scales must not be used by someone with medical implants (e.g. heart
pace-makers) because, functioning of implants or the scale could be impaired.
Do not use during pregnancy.

Do not expose the scale to high temperatures or strong electromagnetic elds(e.g.
Mobile phones).
Do not dismantle or try to repair the scale. There is no user serviceable parts in it.
Use only 1.5 V (Volt) alkaline batteries for this device. Using other type of batteries may
damage the unit.
Ensure the batteries are inserted in to the battery compartment with the correct
polarity.

cover of the battery compartment and
slide it down.
Install the four ‘AAA’Batteries by matching
Please follow the directions mentioned below: 123
After installing the batteries and closing the battery compartment, press the square
button located above the battery compartment to change the measuring unit. It the
measuring unit is in Kilogram, it will change to Pounds and visa versa.
Slide in the battery compartment cover back. When replacing batteries in the
future, ensure that the scale is turned o. When the battery is low, This icon
will appear and start ashing. At this time please replace all 4 batteries. The time
and date need to be reset every time the batteries are replaced.

Setting up your Scale
Always set up the scale on a at, hard and even surface to ensure accurate
reading/measurement.
This scale operates according to the B.I.A. Principle (bioelectric impedance analysis).
This enables the measurement of physical data within seconds by means of an
undetectable, completely harmless electric current. The body fat percentage and other
physical data of the body are determined by measuring the electrical resistance
(impedance) and calculating constants and individual parameters such as age, height,
gender and degree of activity.
Muscle tissue and water have good electrical conductivity, and therefore lower
resistance. Bone and fatty tissue, on the other hand, have low conductivity and have
very high resistance.
Please be aware that values obtained from the scale represent only an approximation
of actual analytical medical data. Only a specialist or physician can accurately
determine body fat, body water, muscle percentage and bone structure using medical
procedures.
The capacity of the scale is 150kg (330lb, 24st). For weight measurement and bone
mass measurement, the results are shown in 100g increments (0.2 lb).
The measuring result of the body fat, body water and muscle percentage are shown in
0.1% increments. The caloric requirements are specied in steps of 1 kcal.

Measuring Principle and other information
Before Using your Scale
You must either download the Android or iOS app to you mobile (smart) phone from
Play store (Android) or App store (Apple). You will also need to have Bluetooth enabled
mobile phone. Upon downloading and installtion of the Eocene App, please follow the
instructions. For automatic personal recognition the rst measurement must be
assigned to your personal user data. Follow the app instructions for this.
Your personal and user parameters are provided by your healtcare provider if you have
purchased this device as recommended by your healthcare provider.
If not, you may have to input the information after downloading the Eocene App.
Please contact Eocene Customer Support for more information at 1-321-567-0916.
If you are using the Eocene Home Control box, make sure the scale is within 25 feet of
the Eocene Home Control box so as to have a strong Bluetooth connection between
the scale and the box.
The scale can assign up to 8 users for a weight only measurement. Eocene Health
Systems recommend that only one user is assigned so as to give your healthcare
provider an accurate reading.

Using your Scale
As mentioned earlier, place the scale on a level, hard surface. If you are using the
Eocene Home Control box, place the scale near the box.
Step on the scale bare footed, remove socks if you are wearing them and stand still.
Do not hold or touch any other objects with you hands, legs or any other part of
your body to avoid in correct readings.
As soon as you step on the scale, it begins weighing. At rst it displays the weight
and the the screen will display“0000” while other parameters are measured and
then soon, the measured weight is displayed.
If a user is assigned, the BMI, Body fat, water, muscle and bone readings will be
shown.
In order to weigh only your weight, wear a pair of shoes and stand still on the scale
with your weight distributed evenly between both legs. The scale will display your
weight and then display“Err” as it couldn’t measure othet parameters.

A lower value is often found in athletes. Depending on the type of sports, training
intensity and physical activity, the values may be below the recommended values
stated. It should however be noted that there could be a danger to health in the
case of extremely low values.

Body fat contains relatively less water. Therefore persons with a high body fat
percentage have body water percentages below the recommended values. In athletes
the readings could exceed the recommended values due to low fat percentages and
high muscle percentage. This scale is unsuitable for measuring body water for medical
conclusions concerning age-related water retention, Please consult with your
physician. A high body water percentage should be ideal.
