9. Results in relation to time

Note:

Remember that only long-term trends are important. Short-term fluctuations in weight over a few days are

usually the result of fluid change, due to fluid intake or loss.

The interpretation of the results will depend on changes in your overall weight and body fat, body water and

muscle percentages, as well as on the period during which these changes take place. Sudden changes within

days must be distinguished from medium term changes (over weeks) and long term changes (months).

A basic rule is that short term changes in weight almost exclusively represent changes in water content,

whereas medium and long term changes may also involve the fat and muscle percentages.

• I

f your weight reduces over the short term, but your body fat percentage increases or remains the same,

you have merely lost water – e.g. after a training session, sauna session or a diet restricted only to rapid

weight loss.

• I

f your weight increases over the medium term and the body fat percentage falls or stays the same, then

you could have built up valuable muscle mass.

• I

f your weight and body fat percentage fall simultaneously, then your diet is working – you are losing fat

mass.

•

deally you should support your diet with physical activity, fitness or power training. This way you can

increase your muscle percentage over the medium term.

• B

ody fat, body water or muscle percentages should not be added (certain elements of muscle tissue also

contain body water).

10. Troubleshooting

Following error messages can appear.

Error display Possible causes of errors Correction of errors

“FFFF” The maximum capacity of 330 lb (150 kg,

24 st) has been exceeded.

Weigh only the maximum permissible

weight.

“Err” The electrical resistance between the conduc-

tors and the soles of the feet is too high (e.g.

in the case of thick calluses or too dry soles).

Repeat the measurement barefoot.

If necessary, remove the calluses from

the soles of your feet.

“Err” The fat percentage is outside the measurable

range (less than 5 % or greater than 50 %).

Repeat the measurement barefoot.

If necessary, remove the calluses from

the soles of your feet.

“Err” The water percentage is outside the

measurable range (less than 25 % or greater

than 75 %).

Repeat the measurement barefoot.

If necessary, remove the calluses from

the soles of your feet.

“Err” The muscle percentage is outside the measur-

able range (age and gender related).

Repeat the measurement barefoot.

If necessary, remove the calluses from

the soles of your feet.

“Lo” Low Power. Change the battery.

No display. Battery is empty, battery was inserted

incorrectly or the scale is broken.

Scale shows unrealistic results. Wait until scale scale switches off auto-

matically. Repeat measurement.

Place the scale on level flooring (no car-

pet). Don’t move during weighing.
