3.4 Tips for using the scale

Important when measuring body fat/body water/muscle percentage:

•Themeasurementmayonlybecarriedoutwhilebarefootanditishelpfulifthesolesofyourfeetareslightlydamp.Com-

pletely dry soles can result in unsatisfactory results, as they have insufficient conductivity.

•Yourfeet,legs,calvesandthighsmustnottoucheachother,asotherwisethemeasurementcannotbeperformedcorrectly.

•Standstillduringthemeasurement.

•Waitseveralhours(6-8)afterunusuallystrenuousactivity.

•Waitapprox.15minutesaftergettingoutofbedsothatthewaterinyourbodycanbedistributed.

The measurement is not reliable for:

•Childrenunderapprox.10yearsofage.

•Personswithfever,undergoingdialysis,withsymptomsofedemaorosteoporosis.

•Personstakingcardiovascularmedication.
