Factors Influencing Maesurement Readings

Analysis is based on the
measurement of the body's
electrical resistance. Eating
and drinking habits during the
course of the day and indivi-
dual lifestyle affect the water
balance. This is noticeable
by the fluctuations in the
display.
In order to ensure that the
results of analysis are a accu-
rate and consistent as pos-
sible, keep the measurement
conditions constant, as only
in this way will you be able
to observe changes over an
extended period.
Messages
1. Batteries spent.

4. Bad foot-contact:
Clean scale or feet or check for sufficient skin moisture.
If skin is too dry – moisten feet or carry out measurement
after taking a bath or shower.
Other factors can affect water
balance:
After a bath, the body fat rea-
ding may be too low and the
body water reading too high.
After a meal, readings can be
higher.
Women may experience fluc-
tuations due to the menstrual
cycle.
Due to loss of water caused
by illness or after physical
activity (sport). After taking
exercise, wait for 6 to 8 hours
before carrying out the next
measurement.
Varying or implausible results
can occur in the case of:
Persons with a high tempera-
ture, symptoms of oedema or
osteoporosis.
Persons undergoing dialysis
treatment.
Persons taking cardiovascular
medicine.
Pregnant women.
If the analysis is performed
while wearing wet socks.
