4. Start-up the Scale
When the scale is powered up, all digits will be displayed for a few seconds (Fig.1), and
then the software version will be shown (Fig.2). Then the scale turns off automatically.
The scale is ready for use.
OPERATION
The accuracy of the results depends on how you stand on the scale. Position your feet
to contact maximally the metal electrodes on the platform. This ensures the best contact
between your feet and the metal contacts. Stay on the scale until estimation is completed
and the result is displayed.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION TO KNOW BEFORE USING YOUR BODY FAT SCALE
Before using the scale, you should know ...
1. Why is it important to monitor percentage body fat (%BF)?
The absolute weight traditionally determines whether or not a person is obese. Weight
change in itself does not indicate whether it was the weight of body fat or muscle that
had changed. In weight management, it is desirable that muscle mass be maintained
while body fat is lost. Thus, monitoring the percentage fat of the body is an important
step toward successful weight management and body health.
The optimal %BF of an individual varies according to age and gender.
The table as follows may be used as a guide:

Please be reminded that the %TBW estimated with the scale represents only a
good approximation of your TBW. There exist clinical methods of estimating total
functions?
For maximum accuracy and repeatability, it is recommended that the scale's body fat
the day, e.g. before breakfast in the morning. It is also a good practice to avoid swings
in hydration level of the body prior to the estimation. Establishing your own baseline
value of %BF and %TBW and track their changes is better than merely comparing your

5. Why is the Athlete Mode necessary in a Body Fat Analyzer?
It has been found that body fat estimation using BIA could overestimate the percentage
body fat of adult elite athletes. The physiological variation of athletes in bone density
and level of hydration are two of the reasons said to account for the difference. The
Athlete mode is selectable only for adults of 18 years of age or older.

7. What is Muscle Mass?
Our Body Fat Scale estimates the weight of Skeletal Muscle Mass in your body.
You've got around 650 muscles in your body, and they make up roughly half of your
smooth and cardiac. All of these muscles can stretch and contract, but they perform
very different functions.

Smooth muscle: Found in the walls of hollow organs
Cardiac muscle: Exists only in your heart
Skeletal muscle
The tissue most commonly thought of as muscle is skeletal muscle. Skeletal muscles
cover your skeleton, giving your body its shape. They are attached to your skeleton by
strong, springy tendons or are directly connected to rough patches of bone. Skeletal

2. How is percentage body fat (%BF) estimated?
%BF is measured by a method called Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis (BIA). The use of BIA
to estimate body fat has been pioneered since the seventies.
With the BIAtechnology, a low intensity electrical signal is sent through the body. The signal is

Please be reminded that the %BF estimated with the scale represents only a good
approximation of your actual body fat. There exist clinical methods of estimating body
fat that can be ordered by your physician.
the body?
Water is an essential component of the body and its level is one of the health-indicators. Water
makes up approximately between 50-70% of the body's weight. It is present proportionally
more in lean tissue compared to fat tissue. Water is a medium for biochemical reactions
that regulate body functions. Waste products are carried in water from cells for excretion in
urine and sweat. Water provides form to cells; helps to maintain body temperature; provides
moisture to skin and mucosa; cushions vital organs; lubricates joints and is a component of

body and state of health. Monitoring the level of body water can be a useful tool for one's
health maintenance. Similar to body fat estimation, the %TBW function provided in this scale
is based on BIA.
The estimated %TBW may vary according to your hydration level, that is, how much water

to accumulate water in the body.

muscle contraction. Your skeletal muscles function almost continuously to maintain your
posture, making one tiny adjustment after another to keep your body upright. Skeletal
muscle is also important for holding your bones in the correct position and prevents your
joints from dislocating. Some skeletal muscles in your face are directly attached to your
skin. The slightest contraction of one of these muscles changes your facial expression.
Skeletal muscle generates heat as a by-product of muscle activity. This heat is vital for
maintaining your normal body temperature.
Skeletal muscle represents approximately 30% of body weight of a healthy 58
kg woman or 40% of a 70 kg man. (International Commission on Radiological
Protection, 1975)
8. What is Bone Mass?
Our Body Fat Scale estimates the weight of non-living bone mineral content. This
is important for monitoring and maintaining healthy bones through exercise and
calcium-rich diet.
An adult skeleton is made up of 206 bones, which come in several different shapes and
VL]HVDQGKDYHVSHFL¿FVWUXFWXUH
Your bones contain blood vessels, nerve cells and living bone cells known as osteocytes.
These are held together by a framework of hard, non-living material containing calcium
and phosphorous. A thin membrane called the periosteum covers the surface of your
bones.
%RQH0LQHUDO&RQWHQWGLIIHUVDFFRUGLQJWRDJHDQGVH[
For Adults: The average bone mineral content of 15-29 year old female is approximately
2.7 kg, that for 15-29 year old male is approximately between 2.7 and 3.5 kg. (Rico et al.
1993)

10. What is Fat-free Mass?
Our Body Fat Scale estimates the weight of fat-free mass in your body.
Fat-free mass is comprised of the nonfat components of the human body. Skeletal
muscle, bone and water are all examples of fat-free mass. Fat-free mass can refer to any
body tissue that does not contain fat.
