Facts You Should Know
Your Weight Watchers scale is a precise measuring instrument that is most
accurate when weighing a stationary object. To ensure the most accurate readings
for 99% of your total body weight, always try to stand on the same area of the scale
platform and DO NOT MOVE. Should the weight on the scale exceed the scale’s
capacity, you may see an error message ”Err”.
Electronic sensors are sensitive. Be careful not to drop or jar the scale. Place it
gently onto floor surface, and store where it will be protected from impact. The
scale is an electronic instrument and should never be submerged in water. Clean
with damp cloth and/or glass cleaner.
In the unlikely event that the scale battery malfunctions and needs to be replaced,
lift the snap on battery cover on the bottom of the scale and replace the old
battery with a 3V Lithium battery (CR2032).
Dispose of the old battery properly. Do not attempt to open the scale or to
remove any components. Servicing should be done by qualified technicians
only. See warranty information.
Before Using Scale
1. Set switch on the base of scale to measure in kg (kilograms) or lb (pounds).
2. Set scale on floor. Surface must be level for accurate operation and safety

Important Information from Weight Watchers:
Your Scale is the best tool for monitoring weight. While not the only measure of
weight loss, scales are the most popular method used to gauge weight-loss
success. A scale measures the sum of your total body weight, which includes bone,
muscle, fat, and water.
Body weight fluctuates during the day, and from day to day, depending on a
variety of factors.
• Salt and carbohydrate intake can affect the body’s water retention.
• A large meal adds weight and can cause water retention.
• Dehydration from exercise, illness, or low fluid intake can result in weight loss.
• Muscle is also a factor. Heavy-duty resistance training can build muscle, which
can affect weight.
• The menstrual cycle can cause temporary weight gains and losses.
When You’re Losing Weight
It’s important not to put too much stock in the exact number on the scale,
because it can and will vary. This is especially true when you’re dieting. Small weight
gains and losses are common as your body adjusts to fewer calories and more
exercise. Your scale is a valuable tool when used to track weight over a
period of weeks and months. Be aware that different scales often give different
results. The scale at your doctor’s office may show one weight, and your scale at
home another.
So don’t get too caught up with a single number.
Don’t overdo it!
A surefire way to get overly concerned with your weight is to weigh yourself too
often. We generally recommend weighing yourself no more than once a week when
you’re dieting. Though it’s hard to stick to this pattern, it’s the best way to prevent
unnecessary concern with normal weight fluctuations, which are unrelated to your
weight-loss efforts. Regardless of your weighing habits, it’s important that you’re
consistent.
Here are 5 rules for effectively monitoring your weight – weigh yourself:
To keep track of your weight, record only one number for the week.
This will give you a clear picture of any trend your weight is following.
When You’re Maintaining Weight
Fluctuations in day-to-day weight tend to be smaller when weight is stable, so a
more frequent weigh-in pattern is helpful. To maintain a stable weight:
• Weigh yourself more often than once a week.
• Use the “5-pound rule” – research shows that people who keep weight within
a 5-pound range are more likely to maintain a healthy body weight over the
long term.
