Taking A Measurement - Omron BF508 Mode D'emploi

4. Taking a Measurement

To ensure accurate measurement results, measurements should be taken on a hard, level surface.
1.
Turn on the power.
"CAL" blinks on the
display, then the
display changes to "0.0
kg".
Note: If you step onto the unit before "0.0 kg"
appears on the display, an error
message "Err" will appear.
2.
When the "0.0 kg" is displayed, take
out the display unit.
Note: Do not take out the display unit until
"0.0 kg" appears on the display.
Otherwise, the weight of the display is
added to your body weight which
causes an incorrect result.
3.
Select the personal profile number.
Press the USER button while holding the
display unit. Selected number will appear after
blinking once.
If the following display is indicated:
Your personal data is not stored in the personal
profile number you have selected. Refer to
Section 3 to store personal data.
If you do not have personal data
stored on the unit (GUEST
mode):
1) Press the GUEST button while
holding the display unit.
2) The GUEST indication "G" appears
on the display.
3) Set the personal data (age, gender,
and height). Refer to steps 3
through 4 in Section 3, Setting and
Storing Personal Data.

4.
Start measurement.
1)
While holding the display unit, step on the
main unit and place your feet on the foot
electrodes with your weight evenly
distributed.
The display will show your weight and then the
weight result will blink twice.
The unit will then start to measure your body fat
percentage and visceral fat level.
2)
When "START" appears on the display,
extend your arms straight at a 90° angle
to your body, as illustrated on the next
page.
The indicators in the measurement progress bar at
the bottom of the display will gradually appear,
from left to right.
3)
After the measurement
is complete, your
weight is displayed
again. At this point you
may step off the unit.
Refer to step 5 in Section 4 for checking
the measurement results.
