Thank you for purchasing this high-quality product made by ADE. You have acquired a
body analyser scale that meet the highest technical standards and are of proven quality.
Please read these operating instructions carefully before using the product for the first
time and keep them in a safe place where you can find them whenever you need the
information contained in the instructions
.
1. How does the body analyser work?
Through this new revolutionary scale, you will be able to get information about your body
composition with reference to your weight, body fat %, body water %, muscle mass %,
bone mass kg, daily calorie requirement (basal metabolic rate) in kcal. First of all, you
have to enter once your personal data like gender (male, female, or male athlete, female
athlete), age and body height under your selected personal memory location. Afterwards
a measurement is as simple as on a normal bathroom scale. Afterwards a measurement
is as simple as on a normal bathroom scale. You have only to select your personal
memory location, step on the scale and within a few seconds, your measured values will
be indicated. The analysis based on the measurement of the body’s electrical resistance.
A low, safe electrical signal passes freely through fluids contained in lean tissue, such as
muscle and blood, but meets resistance passing through fat tissue. The body analyser
accurately measures the resistance and with reference to your personal data use it to
calculate elements of body composition.
2. How to use
If possible, the measurement should be done undressed but always barefoot.
By nature, a body is subject of fluctuations (for example, loss of water after taking
exercise or after a sauna visit, after a meal, etc.). To enable comparable readings it is
important to take the measurements as possible always under the same conditions.
In order to ensure that the results of analysis are accurate and consistent, please keep
the measurement conditions constant always at the same daytime. In the morning,
directly after you’ve woken up, your body will be dehydrated and also the majority of fluid
will be stored in the central trunk area. This means that the resistance is relatively high
because of the poor conductivity in the body. By intensify moving during the day
progresses the fluid becomes more evenly distributed through the limbs and increasing
the accuracy of the readings. To get a realistic result it is important to take your readings
at the same time and under the same conditions every day. The easiest way to stick the
rule, measure always in the morning, 15 minutes after you’ve got up, either before or
after you’ve gone to the bathroom.
In spite of a very low electrical signal, this body analyser is not suitable for persons
with hea rt pacemaker or other electronic medical implants! There is no risk for
persons with none electronic implant for instance a titanium plate in the knee. However,
metal conducts the electric current extremely well and therefore the scale implicates the
body fat value “beautified” – means the actual body fat value is higher as indicated.
However, tendencies may be determined as well.
