Frequently Asked Questions - 5297054 Taylor

How do I set up the scale for the first time?

Insert the 3 AAA batteries (included) after removing any plastic wrap. Place the scale on a hard, flat surface. Press firmly on the platform to turn it on, then let it turn off automatically. The scale is now ready for use. You can change the weight unit by pressing the kg/lb/st button on the bottom.

How do I pair the scale with my smartphone?

Download the AIFit app from the Apple App Store or Google Play. Enable Bluetooth on your phone. Open the app, allow location permissions if prompted, and register an account. Go to 'Me' > 'My Device' and scan for the scale. Step on the scale to power it on, then select the device to pair. Once connected, the app will show 'Connected: XX:XX:XX:XX:XX'.

Why does the scale show different body fat readings compared to another scale?

Different scales use different measurement techniques and algorithms. For consistent tracking, always use the same device at the same time of day, under similar conditions. Do not compare results across different brands or models.

What does the 'Lo' display mean?

'Lo' indicates that the batteries are running low. Replace all three AAA batteries with new ones. Do not mix old and new batteries or different types.

How do I clean and maintain the scale?

Clean the scale with a damp cloth only. Avoid letting water get inside the scale. Do not use chemical or abrasive cleaning agents. Keep the scale in a horizontal position and avoid extreme temperatures or humidity.

What should I do if the scale displays 'Err1' or another error?

'Err1' typically means that impedance cannot be measured. Ensure you are standing still with bare feet, making full contact with the metal electrodes. Moisten your feet slightly if needed. If errors persist, remove the batteries, wait a minute, and reinsert them.

Can the scale be used on carpet?

No, always use the scale on a hard, flat surface. Carpeted or uneven floors can affect accuracy and may cause the scale to malfunction.

Is this scale safe for people with pacemakers?

No, do not use the scale on individuals with electronic implants such as pacemakers, artificial limbs, or metal plates/screws. The electrical signals may interfere with the device. Consult a physician if in doubt.

How do I switch between weight units (lb, kg, st)?

Press the 'kg/lb/st' button located on the bottom of the scale. Each press cycles through pounds (lb), kilograms (kg), and stones (st). The selected unit will appear on the display.

What is the Athlete Mode and who should use it?

Athlete Mode adjusts the body composition calculation for individuals with higher muscle mass. It is intended for people aged 15 to 85 who engage in regular, intense exercise. You can select this mode within the AIFit app during user profile setup.

Welcome to the Body Composition Scale

This product is designed to test the body fat, hydration and muscle mass. The scale is to assist with keeping a close eye on the daily change of your body fat, hydration, muscle mass, bone mass, BMI, metabolism, weight and weight tracking. The body composition scale also estimates basal metabolic rate (BMR), which the scale displays as "Kcal". The body composition scale also is equipped with "Athlete Mode" for athletes whose body is built different than non-athletes. Please note that body fat percentages can vary through out the day and day by day. Do not compare your results with other methods. The key is to use one method of calculating composition consistently and track those results with the same device overtime.

Carefully read the instructions before use.

Preparation Before Use

INSERT THE BATTERIES

1. Insert the 3 "AAA" batteries (included).
2. Remove any plastic wrap from the batteries before installing.
3. Place the batteries into the battery compartment according to the "+" and "-" polarity symbols in the battery compartment.
4. Replace the battery compartment cover.
5. If you do not intend to use the scale for a prolonged period of time, it is advisable to remove the batteries before storing.
6. Do not mix old and new batteries.

WEIGHT UNIT SETTING

- Your scale is set at the factory to weigh in pounds (lb).

• Switch on the scale and press the "kg/lb/st" button at back of the scale to convert weight unit if needed.
• Some models have a static cling label on the LCD lens to prevent scratching. Remove before use.

SET THE SCALE IN THE RIGHT POSITION

• Always use the scale on a flat and hard floor surface. Do not use on carpets.

Battery Warnings!

NOTE: Please recycle or dispose of batteries per local regulations.

WARNING: Batteries may pose a choking hazard. As with all small items, do not let children handle batteries. If swallowed, seek medical attention immediately.

PRECAUTION: Do not dispose of batteries in fire. Batteries may explode or leak. Remove the batteries if the scale will not be used for a long period of time.

Problem Solving & Questions Warning Indication

1. If the scale does not turn on or no weight is displayed?
   Check if the scale is powered up and started up. If not, please refer to the Section "Preparation Before Use".
2. If the scale is inaccurate or weight varies?
   Place feet in center of platform and stand still. Allow weight to lock in before looking down at display. Flooring may be a reason for fluctuation. Use the scale on the hardest floor available for accuracy. Do not move the scale unnecessarily.
3. I have tried all corrective actions, but still can't solve the problem.
   Please contact the Taylor Customer Service Department at 1-866-843-3905 (from 8:00 am to 5:00 pm, Mountain Standard Time, Monday through Friday) or by email to [e-mail].
4. Why do I get a different body fat reading when I use a different brand of body fat scale?
   Different body composition scales take estimations around different parts of the body and use different mathematic algorithm to estimate the percentage of body fat. The best advice is not to make comparisons from one device to another, but to use the same device each time to monitor any change.

Low Battery Indication:

The Battery is running low please replace with a new battery.

Measurement error:

Impedance cannot be measured. Please make sure that you are standing still on the scale with bare feet and maintaining maximum contact between your feet and the metal contacts. You may need to moisten your feet to improve the electrical contact.

Over-Load warning:

Remove weight immediately or damage can be caused.

If Error messages continue after following the correct actions above, remove the batteries and reinsert after 1 minute.
