Note: Stand on the scales with bare feet only. Initial display for approx. 3 seconds –Weight in kg The analysis function now requires a few seconds to perform the measurement and calculation. Successive displays on display –Weight in kg – the Body Mass Index BMI, – the body fat percentage FAT, – the body water percentage ., for approx. 3 seconds each. These displays are automatically repeated 2x in succession. Important: Stand with feet, calves and thighs apart, otherwise the measurement will be incorrect. The scales automatically switch off a couple of seconds after the end of the measuring process. General information The measurements are only an indication of long-term changes. You are not replacing medical observation or consultation. For more detailed information on the meaning of the body fat content and body water content and the values ideal for you, please consult your GP. Tip: To obtain comparable measurements, weigh yourself every day at the same time and under the same conditions (recommended three hours after eating or sport). Note: The measurement results are not reliable for children under 10 years of age. Robert Bosch Hausgerate GmbH en What does BMI mean? The Body Mass Index (BMI) is a measured value for evaluating the weight of a person. The value can be used to determine whether the person is normal weight, overweight or underweight. The Body Mass Index (BMI) is the quotient of your weight (kg) and the square of your height (m). The unit of the BMI is kg/m.. Meaning of BMI (according to WHO) BMI value Meaning under 19 underweight 19 to 25 normal weight 25 to 30 overweight 30 to 35 obesity degree 1 35 to 40 obesity degree 2 over 40 obesity degree 3 The Body Mass Index is a very approximate value only. How does body fat measurement function? Body fat is measured according to the BIA principle (bioelectrical impedance analysis). The appliance transmits a weak, harmless electrical signal through the body. The resistance (impedance), i.e. the signal which the body resists, is measured. The resistance is affected by the composition of the human body. Muscles and organs contain water and are therefore good conductors. Fat resists the signal and is therefore a poor conductor. The body fat percentage is calculated from this measured resistance taking into account the data (size, age, sex) which was input into the scales. The body fat content varies greatly from person to person. Therefore, only approximate values are indicated in the following table. Women Age too low aCE~a high Age too low aCE~ahigh Men Water measured values The body fat and water measurements are influenced by the amount of water in the body. The amount of water varies, e.g. accordingto the time of day, demands on the body, baths or showers, menstruation, eating and drinking. Even illnesses or medication may influence the result. The following guide values, according to WHO, apply to persons who are normal weight: – Women 50–55% – Men 60–65% Cleaning the appliance Never immerse the scales in water. Do not use a steam cleaner. • Wipe the scales with a damp cloth, do not use scouring agents. • Clean the glass surface with a standard glass cleaner. Error messages If ... is indicated on the display, this may be due to various causes: – The calibration was defective. a Remove and re-insert the battery. Then tap briefly and audibly on the surface of the scales with the ball of your foot. – The weighing process was not conducted with the person standing still or for long enough. aYou must stand still on the scales for at least five seconds. Robert Bosch Hausgerate GmbH en fr – The weight to be weighed is too heavy (max. 180 kg). – The contact between the soles of the feet and the measuring contacts is too low. a Place feet on the measuring contacts. Note: Very dry skin and/or very hard skin may distort the result. The measurement results will be more accurate if the soles of the feet have good blood circulation or are damp. However, to avoid the risk of slipping, please ensure that the soles of the feet are not wet. – The percentage of body fat is outside the range of 5–50% a Repeat the measuring process – The percentage of body water content is outside the measurement range. If .. is indicated, this has the following cause: – The battery is discharged or too weak. Change the battery (see Fig. 2). Then calibrate the scales, tap briefly and audibly on the surface of the scales with the ball of your foot. Do not use rechargeable batteries! Use the same type of batteries only.
