how does this salter scale work?
This Salter scale uses BIA (Bio Impedance Analysis) technology which passes a tiny
electrical impulse through the body to determine fat from lean tissue, the electrical
impulse cannot be felt and is perfectly safe. Contact with the body is made via stainless
steel pads on the platform of the scale.
This method simultaneously calculates your personal weight, body fat, total body water,
BMI and muscle mass, giving you a more accurate reading of your overall health and
fitness.
This scale stores the personal data of up to 4 users. As well as being an analyser scale,
this scale can be used as a conventional scale.
