5742 Leading the W ay in Accuracy ® Body Fat Analyzer and Scale Instruction Manual.
Thank you for purchasing a Taylor® Precision Product. Your Taylor® Body Fat Analyzer and Scale is an example of superior design and craftsmanship. Please read this instruction manual carefully before use. Keep these instruc- tions handy for future reference.
This scale operates on 4 AAA batteries (included). Insert the 4 AAA batteries into the battery compartment. Ensure the + and - terminals are the correct way round. Some models have a static cling label on the lens to prevent scratching. Please remove before use.
In order to measure body fat and body water, you must first enter your height, age, and gender. The analyzer uses these factors to calculate your results. Onscreen prompts will lead you through programming your personal information into the analyzer. The analyzer will then use this data to com- pute your body fat/body water percentages.
TO TURN OFF THE SCALE: To turn the scale off, press the ON button. Or, the scale will turn off after about 20 seconds if no keys are pressed or nothing is weighed. NOTE: If you are having a problem operating this Analyzer please call 866- 843-3905 from 7:30 am to 4:30 pm, Mountain Standard Time, Monday through Friday.
How exactly is my body fat and water being measured? The Taylor Body Analyzer Scale uses a measurement method known as Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis (BIA). A minute current is sent through your body, via your feet and legs. This current flows easily through the lean muscular tissue, which has a high fluid content, but not easily through fat.
Why should I avoid using the Taylor Body Analyzer Scale while pregnant? During pregnancy a woman’s body composition changes considerably in order to support the developing child. Under these circumstances, body fat percentage readings could be inaccurate and misleading.
EEEE = Overload Warning. The maximum weigh- ing capacity of the scale has been exceeded. Remove the weight immediately; otherwise, per- manent damage to the scale will occur. ER0 = Instability error. Step off and back onto the scale, standing still while your weight computes.
3. It is recommended to measure body fat, body water or weight at the same time period daily. Please note that body fat contains some body water weight. Thus, body fat and body water percentages will not add up to 100%. 4. Use this product without clothing for best accuracy.
You must wait several hours before taking a body fat reading when: drinking coffee or alcohol, taking diuretic medications, or exercising. These all affect your level of hydration and the accuracy of this analyzer.
This scale is warranted against defects in materials of workmanship for ten (10) years for the original purchaser from date of retail purchase. It does not cover damages or wear resulting from accident, misuse, abuse, commercial use, or unauthorized adjustment and/or repair.
