Important Notes for Users

This Body for monitor is intended for adults and children (ages 7-17) with inactive to moderately active lifestyles.

It is not intended for people with arthritis body types. Tanita defines "arthrot" as a person involved in intense physical activity of at least 10 hours per week and who has a resting heart rate of approximately 60 beats per minute or less. People with arthritis body types should use Tanita Body Fat Monitor/Scalcs equipped with Athlete mode.

This scale is not intended for pregnant women, professional athletes or babydollars.

Recorded data may be lost if the unit is used incorrectly or is exposed to electrical power surges. Tanita takes no responsibility for any kind of loss caused by the loss of recorded data.

Tanita takes no responsibility for any kind of damage or loss caused by these units, or any kind of claim made by a third person.

Note: Body of percentage estimates will vary with the amount of water in the body, and can be affected by dehydration or non-hydration due to such factors as alcohol consumption, morbid nutrition, illness, intense exercise, etc.

PRINCIPLES OF ESTIMATING BODY FAT PERCENTAGE

Tanita Body Fat Monitor/Scales allow you to determine your body fat percentage at home as easily as you measure your weight.

What is Body Fat Percentage?

Body fat percentage is the percentage of fat in your body. Too much body fat has been linked to conditions such as high blood pressure, heart disease, diabetes, cancer, and other disabling conditions.

1 Based on NH-WHID-BMI Guidelines. 2 As reported by GeNaght et al at NY Obesity Research Center To determine the percentage of body that is appropriate for your body, consult your physician.

With this device, persons 18 and 19 years old should use the evaluation scale for persons 20-39 years old, and persons age 80 and over should use the evaluation scale for persons age 60 - 79.

The BIA Method

Tanita Body Fat Monitor/Scans use the BIA (Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis) technique. In this method, a safe, low-level electrical signal is passed through the body. It is difficult for the signal to flow through fat in the human body, but easy to flow through moisture in the muscle and other body tissues. The difficulty with which a signal flows through a substance is called impedance. So the more resistance, or impedance, the signal encounters, the higher the body fat reading.

Instruments:patented "foot aid" design such as a safe off-level electrical sign through the body to determine its composition

Body Fat Percentage Fluctuations in a Day

Hydration levels in the body may affect body fat readings. Readings are usually highest in the early waking hours, since the body tends to be dehydrated after a long night's sleep. For the most accurate reading, a person should take a body fat percentage reading at a consistent time of day under consistent conditions.

Bases do this basic cycle of fluctuations in the daily body fat readings, variations may be caused by hydration changes in the body due to eating, drinking, menstruation, illness, exercising, and bathing. Daily body fat readings are unique to each person, and depend upon one's lifestyle, job and activities.

What is Total Body Water Percentage?

Total Body Water Percentage is the total amount of fluid in a person's body expressed as a percentage of their total weight. Approximately 50 - 65% of the weight of a healthy person is water. Water plays a vital role in many of the body's processes and is found in every cell, tissue and organ. Maintaining a healthy total body water percentage will ensure the body functions efficiently and will reduce the risk of developing associated health problems.

How To Measure Total Body Water?

Deutrolum Dlution Method is currently used as a typical method to measure a total body water percentage. This instrument estimates the total body percentage by the analysis (Multiple Regression Analysis) based on the parameter found by the BIA method.

A mutually over O B is obtained between this instrument and the "delerium dilution method". Note: Delerium dilution method is terms of total coccy water based or the analysis of the dilution of poorly ingested equitol oxide in urine.

Healthy Total Body Water Percentage (%TBW)

The average toilet body water percentage ranges for a healthy adult are: Female: 45 to 60%

Fennel: 16 to 60%

Note: The total body mass percentage of a person with a high percentage of body fat may fall below the average healthy ranges.

Daily Rhythm of Total Body Water

Try to measure total body water percentage at the same time of day and under the same conditions. This increases the accuracy of the readings. The best time is in the early evening, before the evening meal, when hydration levels are more stable. Total body water percentage tends to be underestimated to a degree if measured immediately after getting out of bed, not only because of dehydration but also because the fluid in the body will be stored centrally in the body's trunk. As the day progresses this fluid becomes more evenly distributed due to the effect of gravity.

On the contrary, it may be overestimated after exercise or taking a bath because of the movement of body water or a rise in the body temperature despite actual dehydration.

Important Notes

Take your measurements at the same time of day and under the same conditions.
Measured results depend on the movement of water in the body and/or changes in body temperature. Factors affecting total body water levels include sleep, physical activity, eating and drinking. Illness and medications: bathing patterns and urination.
Take fluid immediately if you have any symptoms of dehydration, particularly after physical activity or bathing. Symptoms include a dry mouth, headache, nausea, dizziness, skin dryness, a rise in temperature, loss of concentration, etc. If symptoms persist, consult your doctor immediately.
- Eddly people are at increased risk of dehydration as they have less sensitivity to thirst and other rational symptoms. - This instrument cannot be used to specifically determine an individual's recommended total body water percentage. - Look for the long-term changes in total body water percentage and try to maintain a consistent, healthy total body water percentage.

USEFUL FEATURES

Tanita Body Fat Monitor/Scales allow you to measure both weight and body fat percentage simultaneously and easily, simply by stepping on a scale.
- Your Body Fat Monitor/Scale can be set for Adults or Children (ages 7-17). Male or Female.
Personal data (Female/Male, Age, Height) can be pre-set and stored in personal data memories.
Guest feature allows you to take readings without reprogramming one of the Personal keys.
- The unit emits a helpful "beep" when activated, and also at various stages in the programming and measuring process. Listen for these sounds which will prompt you to step on the unit, look at your readings, or confirm a setting.

SWITCHING THE WEIGHT MODE Note: For use only with models containing the weight mode switch

You can switch the unit indication by using the switch on the back of the scale as shown in the figure.

Note: II weight mode is set to pounds or stone pounds, the height programming mode will be automatically set to test and inches. Similarly, if kilograms is selected, height will be automatically set to centimetres.

lb (pounds)

kg (kilograms)

st-lb (stone pounds)

AUTOMATIC SHUT-DOWN FUNCTION

The automatic shut-down function shuts off the power automatically in the following cases:

If you interrupt the measurement process, The power will shut down automatically within 10 to 20 seconds, depending upon the type of operation.
If an extraordinary weight is applied to the platform.
If you make a mistake during measurement or a key or button operation.
- During programming, if you do not touch any of the keys or buttons within 60 seconds.
- After you have completed the measuring process.

Note: If the power shuts or automatically, repeat these steps from "Setting and Storing Data in Memory" (p.e.).

GETTING ACCURATE READINGS

Heels centered on electrodes

ces met overloading measuring platform

Note: An accurate reading will not be possible if the sales of your test are not done, or if your known tests are not carried out in a sitting position.

To ensure accuracy, readings should be taken without clothing and under consistent conditions of hydration. If you do not understand, always remove your sores or stockings and be sure the sores of your feet are clean before stepping on the measuring platform. Be sure that your heels are correctly aligned with the electrodes on the measuring platform. Don't worry if your feet appear too large for the unit - accurate readings can still be obtained if your toes overhang the platform. It is best to take readings at the same time of day. Try to wait about three hours after rising, eating, or hard exercise before taking measurements. While readings taken under other conditions may not have the same absolute values, they are accurate for determining the percentage of change as long as the readings are taken in a consistent manner. To monitor progress, compare weight and body fat percentage taken under the same conditions over a period of time.

Using your toe, tap the Weight-only key. After 2 or 3 seconds, "0.0" will appear in the display and the unit will beep. When "0.0" appears in the display, step onto the platform. The body weight value will appear. If you remain on the platform, the display will flash for about 30 seconds, and then the power will automatically turn off. If you step off the platform, the weight will continue to show for about 5 seconds, then "0.0" will appear and the unit will shut off automatically.

UNDERSTANDING YOUR READING

Healthy Range Indicator

Your body fat monitor/scale automatically compares your body fat reading to the Healthily Body Fat Range chart.
Following your body fat percentage reading, a black bar will flash along the bottom of the display, identifying where you fall within the Body Fat Ranges for your age and gender. For example, if the squares appear above (O) area your range is within the Healthy Range – if they appear over (-) area, your reading is below the Healthy Range. For more about the Healthy Range, see page 2.
- Understate: below the healthy body fat range. Increased risk for health problems.
22. Healthy, within the healthy body fat range, represents a low risk.
(4): Overficial: above the healthy range. Increased risk for health problems.
(+ + ) :Obese, high above the healthy body fat range. Greatly increased risk of obesity-related health problems

TROUBLESHOOTING

If the following problems occur ...then...

• A wrong weight format appears followed by kg, lb, or st-lb Refer to "Switching the Weight Mode" on p.5.
• "Lo" appears on the display, or all the data appears and immediately disappears.
