Frequently Asked Questions - Yvonne BA 1007 ADE

How to turn on the ADE Yvonne BA 1007 scale?

You can turn on the scale in two ways: either by briefly pressing the platform with your foot (Tap-on function), or by using the ON/OFF switch located under the scale.

How to save my personal data (gender, height, age)?

After turning on the scale, touch a corner of the screen. Use the ▲ and ▼ buttons to select a memory location (P0 to P9), then press SET. Follow the steps to choose gender, height, and age, confirming each with SET.

Why does the scale display 'Err' or 'Err1'?

Err: weighing error, usually if you move during measurement or if the scale is not stable. Err1: overload, the maximum capacity of 150 kg is exceeded. Remove the load immediately.

What does 'Err2' mean?

Err2 indicates a body fat measurement error: the percentage is below 5% or above 75%. Make sure you are barefoot and still.

How to replace the scale's battery?

Open the battery compartment under the scale and replace the used battery with a new CR2032 battery, respecting polarity (+/-). If the scale displays 'Lo', the battery is empty.

Can I use this scale if I have a pacemaker?

No, the scale is not suitable for people with a pacemaker or any other electronic implant. The low electrical current used for analysis could interfere.

Why do measurement results vary during the day?

The body undergoes natural fluctuations (hydration, food intake). For comparable results, always weigh yourself at the same time, ideally in the morning 15 minutes after waking up, and under similar conditions.

How to clean the scale?

Use a soft damp cloth. Never use solvents, abrasive products, and do not immerse the scale in water.

What is the warranty of the ADE Yvonne BA 1007 scale?

ADE offers a 3-year warranty from the date of purchase against any manufacturing defects. To activate it, have your retailer fill out the warranty card.

How to change the weight unit (kg, lb, st)?

Under the scale, to the right of the ON/OFF switch, there is a small UNIT switch. Set it to the desired position: kg for kilograms, lb for pounds, st:lb for stones and pounds.

Thank you for your decision to purchase this high quality body analyser scale. Please peruse read this instruction manual prior to first start up and keep this user instruction careful so as to have this information on hand whenever it is needed.

1. How does the body analyser work?

Through this new revolutionary scale, you will be able to get information about your body composition with reference to your weight, body fat % ,body water % muscle mass % and bone mass kg. First of all, you have to enter once your personal data like gender (male or female), body height and age under your selected personal memory location. Afterwards a measurement is as simple as on a normal bathroom scale. You have only to select your personal memory location, step on the scale and within a few seconds, your measured values will be indicated. The analysis based on the measurement of the body's electrical resistance. A low, safe electrical signal passes freely through fluids contained in lean tissue, such as muscle and blood, but meets resistance passing through fat tissue. The body analyser accurately measures the resistance and with reference to your personal data use it to calculate elements of body composition.

2. How to use

If possible, the measurement should be done undressed but always barefoot.

By nature, a body is subject of fluctuations (for example, loss of water after taking exercise or after a sauna visit, after a meal, etc.). To enable comparable readings it is important to take the measurements as possible always under the same conditions.

In order to ensure that the results of analysis are accurate and consistent, please keep the measurement conditions constant always at the same daytime. In the morning, directly after you've woken up, your body will be dehydrated and also the majority of fluid will be stored in the central trunk area. This means that the resistance is relatively high because of the poor conductivity in the body. By intensify moving during the day progresses the fluid becomes more evenly distributed through the limbs and increasing the accuracy of the readings. To get a realistic result it is important to take your readings at the same time and under the same conditions every day. The easiest way to stick the rule, measure always in the morning, 15 minutes after you've got up, either before or after you've gone to the bathroom.

In spite of a very low electrical signal, this body analyser is not suitable for persons with heart pacemaker or other electronic medical implants! There is no risk for persons with none electronic implant for instance a titanium plate in the knee. However, metal conducts the electric current extremely well and therefore the scale implicates the body fat value beautified means the actual body fat value is higher as indicated. However, tendencies may be determined as well.

Due to menstrual cycle and hormonal changes women experience greater changes in their hydration level. Retaining fluid may cause the weight to fluctuate day-to-day. This

Statutory instructions on battery disposal

Batteries must not be disposed as household waste. The law requires that you, as consumer, return the waste batteries either to public collection points in your town or village or to any outlet selling batteries of the same kind.

Note:

Batteries are marked as follows:

Li Battery contains Lithium

AI = Battery contains Alkali

Mn = Battery contains Manganese

CR (Li); A (Al, Mn); AA (Al, Mn); AAA (Al, Mn)

The average total body water percentage range for healthy men is between 50 - 65%. The equivalent value for women is approximately 45 - 60% due to the higher body fat content. About two third of the total body water is stored in the coils and is therefore called intra cellular. The other third of the total body water is extra cellular body water.

2. After you we selected your personal location (e.g. P3), the symbol for gender starts to flash. To select the requested gender (▼ male or ▲ female), touch the ▲- or ▼-button. After the selection of your gender, touch the SET-button to save the reading.
3. After you've selected your gender (e.g., female), the symbol for body height (default 165 cm) starts to flash. To enter your body height, touch the or -button. After the selection of your body height, touch the SET-button to save the reading.
4. After you've selected your body height, the symbol for age (default age 25) starts to flash. To enter your age, touch the or button. After the selection of your age, touch the SET-button to save the reading.

After input completion, the display indicates --- and the scale returns to 0.0 kg.
Shortly after, the scale automatically powers off.

To enter personal data of further persons please repeat the steps listed below.

5. Body Analysis

An analysis is only possible in bare feet. Your personal data must be entered first (please see page 4).

1. Switch on the scale by using the Tap-on-function. For this, step short with your foot on the scale. First, the display indicates the personal data of the last allocation and a few seconds later 0.0kg . If they are not your personal data please select your personal memory location (where your personal data are stored) by using the or -key. Your personal data will indicate and then the scale returns to 0.0kg .
2. Now, carefully step in bare feet on the right and left stainless steel electrodes (measuring units) of the scale and remain stationary.

3. At first, your weight will indicate on the display. Shortly after, while the analysis is taking place, the signal o starts to move in the display. Still remain stationary on the scale. After completion of the measurement, your measured values will be shown as follows:

4. Your body fat in % and as subtitle an evaluation:
   (-) insufficient body fat - (0) healthy (+) too much body fat (++) obese

5. Your body fat in %
   3.Your muscle mass in %
6. Your bone mass in kg

After a few seconds the scale switch-off automatically.

The body fat content is shown as the amount of stored fat as a percentage of total body weight. There is no generally accepted set value as this varies significantly according to gender (due to the different build) and age. Body fat is vital for basic body functions. It's protecting organs, cushioning joints, regulating body temperature, storing vitamins and serves the body as energy storage.

As essential for women a minimum body fat proportion between 10% and 13% and for men between 10% and 13% is requested - with the exception of competitive athletes.

Body fat is not a clear indicator for health. Too high body weight and a too high body fat proportion are linked to the incidence of many civilization diseases such as diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, etc. Lack of movement and improper nutrition are often the prime course for these diseases. There is an obvious direct relationship between overweight and lack of movement.

A significant part of the human body consists of body water. This body water is differently distributed throughout the whole body. Lean muscle tissue contains approx. 75% body water, blood approx. 83% body water, body fat approx. 25% body water and bones have a water content of about 22% .

The body fat content is shown as the amount of stored fat as a percentage of total body weight. There is no generally accepted set value as this varies significantly according to gender (due to the different build) and age. Body fat is vital for basic body functions. It's protecting organs, cushioning joints, regulating body temperature, storing vitamins and serves the body as energy storage.

As essential for women a minimum body fat proportion between 10% and 13% and for men between 10% and 13% is requested - with the exception of competitive athletes.

Body fat is not a clear indicator for health. Too high body weight and a too high body fat proportion are linked to the incidence of many civilization diseases such as diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, etc. Lack of movement and improper nutrition are often the prime course for these diseases. There is an obvious direct relationship between overweight and lack of movement.
