Safety notes on handling batteries

WARNING

• Always insert the batteries correctly, taking into account the polarity (+/-). Keep batteries clean and dry and away from water. Always select the correct battery type.
• Never short-circuit batteries and battery compartment contacts.
• Never charge, forcibly discharge, heat, disassemble, deform, encapsulate or modify batteries.
• Never weld or solder on batteries.
• Never mix batteries of different manufacturers, capacities (new and used), size and type within a device.
• Risk of explosion! Failure to comply with the points mentioned above can result in personal injury, overheating, leakage, venting, breakage, explosion or fire.
• If a battery has leaked, put on protective gloves and clean the battery compartment with a dry cloth.
• If your skin or eyes come into contact with battery fluid, rinse the affected areas with water and seek medical assistance.
• Choking hazard! Keep batteries out of the reach of children. Seek medical attention immediately if swallowed. Swallowing them may cause severe internal burns and death.
• Never allow children to replace batteries without adult supervision.

CAUTION

• Store batteries away from metal objects in a well-ventilated, dry and cool place.
• Never expose batteries to direct sunlight or rain.
• Exposure of batteries to an environment with extremely high temperatures or a low air pressure may result in explosion or leakage of flammable liquids and gases.
• Remove batteries from the device if it is not going to be used for a long period of time. Do not use the product if the battery compartment lid no longer closes properly.
• Dispose of discharged batteries immediately and properly. Never dispose of batteries in fire or hot ovens.

5. USAGE

The scales can be used from a minimum age of 10 years. The scale can only be used to its full extent with the "beurer HealthManager Pro" app and an online account.

The scale has 8 scale users, enabling you to save the various members of your family, for example. You can use the "beurer HealthManager Pro" app to conveniently set up the individual app users and their corresponding scale user via your smartphone. To do so, proceed as follows:

1. Download the free "beurer HealthManager Pro" app from the Apple App Store (iOS) or from Google Play (Android™) (see illustration on folding page 3.
2. Follow the instructions in the app
3. If a Bluetooth® connection has been established and the user measurements have been successfully taken (e.g. for U - 1), the values will be transferred to the app "beurer HealthManager Pro". This is indicated by the measurement data transfer symbol 8. If the data cannot be transferred, up to 30 values will be stored per user. When the app is open and the scale is active, these are transferred automatically.

• Wherever possible, weigh yourself at the same time every day (ideally in the morning), after having been to the toilet, and on an empty stomach.
• An analytical measurement is only possible barefoot. Otherwise, only a weight measurement will be performed, which will be assigned to a scale user. If the automatic scale user recognition does not work, you can assign your measurement to yourself in the app "beurer HealthManager Pro".
• Please note that measuring tolerances are possible for technical reasons as this scale is not calibrated for use in a professional medical context.
• This scale works on the principle of B.I.A. (bioelectrical impedance analysis). When this measurement of the electrical resistance (impedance) is considered alongside constants and/or individual values (age, height, gender, activity level), the body fat percentage and other variables in the body can be calculated. Please note that the values calculated by the diagnostic bathroom scale only represent an approximation of the actual medical analytical values for the body. Only a specialist doctor can precisely establish the body fat, body water, muscle percentage and bone structure using medical methods (e.g. computer tomography).
• Obtain professional advice from appropriately qualified personnel (e.g. a doctor) when undertaking any treatment or diet to address being overweight or underweight. The health values determined using the scale can assist the qualified personnel in their diagnoses.
• Inaccurate or implausible results may occur when determining body fat in children, performance athletes or people with medical/physical limitations (e.g. oedema symptoms, osteoporosis, people who are taking cardiovascular medication or medication which changes the vascular system, people with major anatomical abnormalities on the legs).

6. WHAT IF THERE ARE PROBLEMS?

6.1 Messages

Display Cause/Remedy

Discrepancy in weight	Incorrect zero point (e.g. in the event of a change of location or temperature fluctuation): Briefly press on the scale until the current weight is displayed, then remove your foot.
	Scale is placed on carpet or uneven ground: The surface must be hard and level.
	Wherever possible, weigh yourself at the same time every day (ideally in the morning), after having been to the toilet, and on an empty stomach.
flashing	The scale can be connected to the app via Bluetooth®: Do not connect it via the Bluetooth® settings on your smartphone, only via the app.
PAir	Bluetooth® must be allowed to connect to the smartphone once: If necessary, check the notification on the smartphone and allow connection via Bluetooth®.
U--/2?	The scale was unable to assign the measurement to a scale user: If the automatic scale user recognition does not work, open the "beurer HealthManager Pro" app.
“-- BF”	Diagnostic measurement not possible (e.g. measurement with shoes): Repeat the measurement barefoot. Otherwise, only weight values will be displayed and transferred.
oLd	The maximum weight capacity of 180 kg has been exceeded: Loads must not exceed 180 kg.
Lo The batteries	are flat. Replace the batteries.
	Measurement is being transferred

6.2 Bluetooth® connection problems

Problem Cause/remedy
No Bluetooth®- connectionSymbol 9is not displayed	No connection when adding the deviceTo establish a connection, the scale must be activated so that the display shows 0.0 kg. To do this, briefly put weight on the platform. Add the device with the app.When connecting for the first time, confirmation may be required on the smartphone to confirm bonding/pairing. Check any notifications in the status bar or messages.No connection for device settingTo establish a connection, the scales must be activated so that the display shows 0.0 kg. To do this, briefly put weight on the platform. Select the added scale under "My devices" in the app.No connection for measurement data transmissionThe connection is established automatically after a successful user measurement (e.g. "U - 1") if the app is open within range (<10m). The scale must be set up under "My devices". Check the user recognition in these device settings.
	Problem solving via the smartphone.Switch Bluetooth®on your smartphone off and on again. Ensure that the scale is not being connected via the Bluetooth® settings of the operating system. If necessary, remove it from the device list in the Bluetooth®settings and then use the app "beurer HealthManager Pro".When connecting the scale, check the status bar on the smartphone to start pairing/bonding.Completely close the app (including in the background). Switch your smartphone off and on again.
Measurements are not sentSymbol 8is not displayed	The user memory (e.g. U - 1) which appears on the scale display during a measurement must be assigned to the scale in your app settings. Only these measurements can be transferred. Therefore, when taking a measurement, check your user on the scale and in your app settings.

7. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Clean the surface of the scale from time to time using a slightly damp cloth. Do not use the scale again until the surface is completely dry.

CAUTION
