GENERAL INFORMATION
Why is it important to know the fat percentage in your body?
Obesity(having an abnormal proportion of body fat) is a known risk for people's health, which is
closedly associated with serious diseases like high blood pressure, heart disease, diabetes,
osteoarthritis and some forms of cancer. There are other, less common symptom like sleep apnea and
sleepiness during the day, which can be caused by obesity.Measuring the body fat percentage, or
your Body Composition, is an effective way to determine the level of your fitness.
Body water is an indicator of healthiness. If weight remains the same, the value of TBW(total body
water)% increases, which indicates the muscle in one's body increases( which is good for health); if
value of TBW (%) decreases, which indicates the muscle in one's body decreases and fat increases,
or indicates maladjustment of body water or some possible diseases with lacking body water.
How the scale works
The fat monitor uses one of the most reliable methods of analyzing body composition, BIA, short for
bioelectrical impedance analysis.BIA measures the resistance, which is in proportional to fat in body,
to the flow of a small, harmless low-level electrical current. The source electrodes introduce the
current at one end and the detecting electrodes receive the current at the other end. Data, like height,
age, gender, from the BIA device is then input into a software program for analysis. Weight and body
fat are calculated automatically.
The Scale`s accuracy is dependent up several client-based variable, we recommend that you get into
a routine of taking measurements, always at around the same time of day and under the same
conditions.
Important Notice:
1. This scale requires bare feet for proper conductivity while measuring body fat.
2. Do not place the scale on a carpeted or uneven surface.
3. Do not use the body fat monitor function of these products if you are using the following
equipment-cardiac pacemaker, electrocardiograph and/ or other medical devices implanted in the
body or used for support.
4. Excessive drinking , eating, exercising, medical conditions, taking medication, the female
menstrual cycle etc., have an effect on the measurement results.
