The HealthSense Body Fat Monitor measures weight and uses bio-electrical
impedance analysis (BIA) technology to estimate body fat %, body water %,
bone mass %, muscle mass % and calories recommended in generally
healthy children 10-17 years old and healthy adults.
It is intended for use in the domestic setting only.
To ensure the accuracy of measurement, please follow below instructions
when you start measurement :
Place the scale on a flat, hard surface. Soft surface such as carpet will affect
the performance of the scale.
Step onto the platform with bare feet. Stand still and keep full contact with
the electrodes until the measurement is complete.
Start measurement at least two hours after Waking up or Dinning.
Avoid measurement immediately after strenuous exercise, sauna or bath,
drinking, and dinning.
Always start measurement in the same time slot and at the same scale
location on the same flat, hard surface.
For maximum accuracy and repeatability, it is recommended that you
should use the device in the same time of the day and at the same location.
The condition of the skin on the bottom of your feet can affect the reading.
The natural effects of aging or activity can make this skin hard. Take the
reading with clean, slightly damp feet for best accuracy. If you are having a
problem on operating this scale please contact HealthSense support team.
Body fat percentage estimates will vary with the amount of water in the
body, and can be affected by dehydration or over-hydration due to such
factors as alcohol consumption, menstruation, illness, intense exercise, etc.
Do not compare weight readings from one scale to another as some
differences will exist due to manufacturing tolerances.
Do not use your Doctor's scale reading as "accurate" reference to determine
the accuracy of your scale, it is not the right way to test the scale accuracy.
The best way test scale accuracy would be using 50 kg+ (110 lb+)
standard Olympic weight bars on the scale.
If you weigh yourself twice and get two different results, your weight lies
between the two

HealthSense Ultra-Lite body fat monitor BF-414 applies BIA (Bio-
impedance Analysis) technology. A small amount of weak current flows
through the human body so as to detect the bio-impedance and estimate
body fat %, body water %, muscle mass %, bone mass and calories
recommended. The electrical current is small and may not be felt.
This BIA technology is cheap, safe, non-invasive, toxic-free and harmless. It
also possesses the characteristics of simple operation and abundant
information.
The current mentioned above is less than 1mA. However, please be aware
that anyone with an wearable or implantable medical electronic instrument,
such as a pacemaker, must avoid using this device.
The intended use of this device is for healthy children 10-17 years old and
healthy adults
