   INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

When using electrical appliances, basic precautions should 

always be followed, which include the following:

• Read all instructions before use or cleaning.

• Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used 

near children.

• Do not immerse any part of the appliance in water or 

other liquids.

• Do not operate appliance damaged in any manner. If the 

appliance is damaged or broken, do not repair yourself, 

please send the appliance to qualified service centre for 

repair or service.

• This appliance is for HOUSEHOLD USE only.

• Before putting the appliance for long-time storage or 

before cleaning. Plug it off an outlet and let the appliance 

cool down.

• Do not stand on the scale with wet feet or on the wet 

surface of the scale. You can slip down and get hurt.

• Stay on the scales in a way that weight should fall on the 

central part of the surface of the scale.

• Never use the scale if there is any cracks on the glass 

surface or if it is damaged.

• Place the scale on the flat, dry and non-slip surface.

• If you are not going to use the scale for a long time, you 

should take the battery out of the battery compartment.

• Do not jump onto the scale.

SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS AND RESTRICTIONS

Attention! If the glass surface is wet or covered with the 

drops of water, wipe the appliance dry to avoid falling.

•  Handle the appliance with care as it is a precision 

measurement mechanism. Do not drop the appliance or 

jump on it. 

• When carrying or storing the appliance leave it in a flat 

position. 

•  The body fat analyzer is not suitable for the following 

categories of consumers:

− Children under 10 years and adults over 80 years of age. 

− Persons with the following symptoms: fever, edema, 

osteoporosis. 

− Persons undergoing dialysis. 

− Persons using a pacemaker. 

− Persons taking cardiovascular medication. 

− Pregnant women. 

− Athletes performing intensive vigorous exercise over 5 

hours a day. 

− Persons with heart rate of under 60 beats per minute.

Attention! Not recommended for people using a 

pacemaker or any other medical implant with 

electronic components. This could threaten the output 

ratio of the implant and deteriorate its performance. 

• The appliance operates properly only when you step on it 

with bare dry feet.

PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION

• The principle behind this scale is bioelectrical impedance 

analysis (B.I.A.).  The measurement of the percentage of 

different tissues occurs within seconds with electric 

current, which is not perceptible for a human, safe and 

harmless. Based on the results of the electrical impedance 

measurement, a number of human body constants and 

individual features (age, height, sex) it is possible to 

determine the percentage of body fat and other 

parameters of a human body.  

• Muscular tissue and water are characterized by good 

electric conductivity, and thus – insignificant electrical 

resistance.  

• On the contrary, bones and adipose tissue possess low 

electric conductivity, as fatty tissue cells and bones do not 

virtually conduct electric current due to extremely high 

resistance. 

• One should keep in mind that the measurements 

obtained with diagnostic scale provide only rough, 

imperfect data as compared to the results of real medical 

tests. Only healthcare professional employing medical 

methods (for example, computed tomography) can 

determine the percentage of body fat, water, muscle mass 

and bones accurately. 

• If, when measuring the percentage of fat, muscle tissue, 

bone and water content, the obtained sum of all 

components has become greater than 100%, this is not a 

sign of scale defect. It can be explained from the 

physiological point of view. Operation of the diagnostic 

scale is based on the analysis of bioimpedance, which 

determines the amount of fat and water in muscle and 

bone tissues themselves. Thus the variation of different 

parameters should be taken into account separately from 

each other, without summarizing the obtained results.

DESCRIPTION

1. LCD display

2. Body

3. Buttons «ON» «SET» «UP» «DOWN»

4. Switch of measuring units

5. Electrodes

BEFORE USING FOR THE FIRST TIME

• Remove item from the package.

• Open a special battery compartment at the bottom of the 

scale, remove the protective film. Close the compartment. 

The scale is ready to operate. 

• Place the scale onto a firm level surface. Do not place the 

scale on soft carpets.

• By default the scale is set to kilos «kg». There is a switch on 

the rear panel of the scale, for selecting pounds «lb» as 

units of measurement.

OPERATION

• Push ON to switch the scale on. 

• Wait for some seconds until "0.0 kg” is displayed. 

•  If you step on the scale before “0.0” appear, the “Err” 

message will appear on the display. In this case step off the 

scale, wait until it switches off and switch it on again.

• Push the SET button. An available storage location will be 

displayed – a user name, for example USER 01. Confirm 

your choice by pushing SET or select another free user by 

pushing UP/DOWN buttons, for example, USER 02. Push 

SET to change to other settings.

•  Then a symbol “a man” or “a woman” will light up. 

Confirm your choice by pushing the SET button or select 

your sex by pushing UP/DOWN buttons. Push SET to 

change to other settings.

• Similarly specify age and height parameters. 

• All set values will light up on the display for confirmation. 

• When 0.0 kg lights up on the display, you can:

- Push SET to reenter the parameters.

- Fill in the remaining storage locations. In total 10 

storage locations are available – for 10 users.

- Push SET to change the set parameters.

- Begin weighing.

INDICATORS

WEIGHING

• To ensure correct measurement results, please, take off 

footwear and socks before getting on the scale.  

• Step on the scale. Do not lean against anything, stand 

straight.

Attention! During measurement there must be no 

contact between both feet, calves, shanks or thighs. 

Otherwise, the measurement cannot be performed 

properly. Stand still during weighing until the reading 

settles.

WEIGHT ANALYSIS

• Select the storage location with your data by pushing 

UP/DOWN buttons. 

• When 0.0 kg is displayed stand with both feet on the 

surface of the scale. 

• First your weight will appear on the display, and then the 

analysis will begin. Stand on the scale until the process is 

completed. 

• In several seconds you will see the following information, 

which will display one by one:

• Body fat percentage 

• Body water percentage, 

• Muscle mass percentage,  

• Bone mass percentage

• While the body fat percentage is displayed, estimated 

rates will appear at the bottom of the display. It shows you 

how fit you are at the moment:

• UNDERFAT – not enough fat 

• HEALTHY - norm 

• OVERFAT – excess fat 

• OBESE – obesity

• After that the set-up parameters will light up again, and 

then the scale will shut down automatically.

NOTIFICATIONS ON DISPLAY

Attention! If an error message is displayed, wait until the 

appliance shuts down. Switch it on again to restart the 

operation. If the error message does not disappear remove 

batteries from the battery compartment for 10 seconds, 

after that insert them again and switch on the appliance.

CLEANING AND CARE

• Wipe the outer surface with a damp cloth.

STORAGE

• Complete "Cleaning and care".

• Place the item in a dry, cool place.

high. Recommendations: you should keep to a 

lowcalorie diet, do more exercise and pay more attention 

to your health.
Indication of the low % of body fat. Body fat percentage 

is too low. Recommendations: you should keep to a 

more nourishing diet and pay more attention to your 

health.
