■ Battery life (4 x AAA manganese dry-cells) will be approximately one year, at a room temperature of
23˚C, when 4 measurements are made per day.
■ When the lights up, the batteries need to be replaced.
Please replace all batteries for new ones of the same type
at the same time.
■ Turn the power OFF before replacing batteries.
・Your personal data will be retained even while batteries are being replaced.
・Please dispose of spent batteries as instructed by the municipalities, wards and towns in which you live.
Battery life and replacement
To measure body weight and composition you must register your age, gender and height.
You may register the personal data of up to four different people.
Others, with no personal data registered in the system, may also use the device as guests to measure
body weight and composition.
After the device starts, and lights up fully, the display will show, “0.0kg”.

Age can be set within the range of 10-80.
After “Age” is set, “Gender” will start to blink.
Caution
Be sure the polarity is correct when inserting the batteries.
• Failure to do so may result in damage to the main unit due to heat generation,
fluid leakage or rupture, and this may cause injury.
Please use only the correct type of batteries as designated.
Do not mix old and new batteries, or batteries from different manufacturers or of different types.
• Doing so may result in damage to the main unit due to heat generation, fluid leakage,
rupture or personal injury.
Please remove batteries when the device is not to be used for a long time (three or more
months).
Also, immediately remove and replace all spent batteries with new ones.
• Failure to do so may result in damage to the main unit due to fluid leakage, rupture, or injury.

What is BMI?
When your ideal weight is BMI “22”,
This product calculates BMI from the “height” registered in your personal data and your
“weight” measurement.
BMI = Weight (kg) ÷ Height (m) ÷ Height (m)
Ideal body weight (kg) = 22 x Height (m) x Height (m)
What is body fat percentage?
Body fat percentage (%) = (body fat weight (kg) ÷
weight (kg)) x 100
This is the ratio of the weight of body fat to body weight.
What is visceral fat level?
This is calculated using an equation developed by Omron. Abdominal CT scan imaging was
used to determine to the amount of fat surrounding internal organs and the results
categorised into 30 levels.
The ideal BMI is said to be “22”. People within this range are less susceptible to illnesses
caused by obesity or thinness, and are likely to have long lives.
Your ideal weight, or in other words, your weight when your BMI is 22, can be determined
using the following formula.
Ex.) The ideal weight for someone who is 155cm tall: 22 × 1.55 × 1.55 = 52.855 →
approximately 52.9kg
However, since BMI is determined on the basis of height and weight, an appropriate
judgment cannot be made for athletes and other people whose heavy body weight is due to
muscularity.
Standards for judging body fat percentage differs between
men and women.
Though we tend to view body fat as a bad thing, fat actually stores energy, protects our
internal organs and performs several other important roles.
It is of course not good to have too much of it, but neither is it good to have too little.
Since men and women accumulate body fat differently, judgment standards also differ.
