Avoid taking measurements after spending time in a sauna, bath or after intense exercise.This may cause inaccurate measurements. Please take measurements after sufficient rest.
Avoid taking measurements when your physical condition is poor (hangover, diarrhea, fever, etc.).Doing so may cause error in the measured value. Resume measuring once you have recovered.
Perform measurement with as little clothing on as possible.Weight of clothing worn will be included in measurements.
Be sure that your toes and heels are correctly aligned with the electrodes on the measurement platform.The body fat percentage displayed may be low or result in an “Err” (error) display if contact between the electrodes and the soles of the feet is poor.
If you do not undress, always remove your socks or stockings,and be sure the soles of your feet are clean before stepping on the measuring platform.
Use in a stable location. Errors in measurements may occur if the device is used in an unstable location.

Getting Accurate Readings

TANITA BC-333LE - Getting Accurate Readings - 1

To ensure accuracy, readings should be taken without clothing and under consistent conditions of hydration. Always remove your socks or stockings, and be sure the soles of your feet are clean before stepping on the measuring platform. Be sure that the arch of each foot is aligned with the center of 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 two hours after getting up, eating, or strenuous exercise before taking measurements. While readings taken under other conditions may not have the same absolute values, they are accurate for determining the percentage change as long as the readings are taken in a consistent manner. To monitor your progress, compare your weight and body fat percentage readings taken under the same conditions over a period of time.

Note:

  • An accurate reading will not be possible if the soles of your feet are not clean, if your knees are bent or if you are sitting down.
  • When performing measurements without clothes on, make sure your arms do not make contact with your body and that your stance is wide enough that your legs don't touch. Failure to do so may prevent correct measurements.

Note:

If any of the following apply, we recommend that you watch the transition as a reference value.

• People who have metal in their bodies.
- Those taking medications that induce changes in body moisture (e.g. diuretics, etc.).
- Those who are pregnant, on dialysis, or have symptoms of swelling.

Preparations Before Use

Inserting the Batteries

Note:

  • Be sure that the batteries are inserted in the correct orientation. If the batteries are inserted incorrectly, fluid may leak from the batteries and damage the floor.
  • If you do not intend to use this unit for a long period of time, remove the batteries before storage.
  • The included batteries from factory may have decreased energy levels over time.
