2. IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTES
WARNING
• Intended use: the device is only intended for weighing humans
and for recording your personal fitness data. The device is only
intended for private use and not for medical or commercial pur-
poses. The device must only be used for the purpose for which
it was designed and in the manner specified in these instructions
for use.
• The device may not be used by people with
medical implants (e.g. pacemakers), as this
may a ect their functionality.
• Do not use the device during pregnancy.
• Danger of tipping! Never place the scale on an
uneven surface (see Figure
of the scale on just one side (see Figure
• Danger of slipping! Do not step onto the scale with wet feet (see
Figure
). Do not step onto the scale when the surface is wet.
B
Do not step onto the scale wearing socks.
• Please note that measuring tolerances are possible for technical
reasons as this scale is not calibrated for use in a professional
medical context.
• This scale works on the principle of B.I.A. (bioelectrical impe-
dance analysis). When this measurement of the electrical resis-
tance (impedance) is considered alongside constants and/or
individual values (age, height, gender, activity level), the body
fat percentage and other variables in the body can be calcu-
lated. Please note that the values calculated by the diagnostic
bathroom scale only represent an approximation of the actual
medical analytical values for the body. Only a specialist doctor
can precisely establish the body fat, body water, muscle percen-
). Never step onto the outer edge

tage and bone structure using medical methods (e.g. computer
tomography).
• Obtain professional advice from appropriately qualified per-
sonnel (e.g. a doctor) when undertaking any treatment or diet
to address being overweight or underweight. The health values
determined using the scale can assist the qualified personnel in
their diagnoses.
• Inaccurate or implausible results may occur when determining
body fat in children, performance athletes or people with medi-
cal/physical limitations (e.g. oedema symptoms, osteoporosis,
people who are taking cardiovascular medication or medication
which changes the vascular system, people with major anatomi-
cal abnormalities on the legs).
• Repairs may only be carried out by Beurer Customer Services or
authorised retailers. Never open the scale yourself.
Safety notes on handling batteries
WARNING
• Risk of explosion! Risk of fire! Failure to comply with the fol-
lowing points can result in personal injury or cause overheating,
leakage, venting, breakage, explosion, or fire on the battery.
• This device contains non-rechargeable batteries which must not
be charged.
• Do not throw batteries into a fire.
• Never charge, forcibly discharge, heat, disassemble, open,
crush, deform, encapsulate, or modify batteries.
• Never short-circuit batteries or battery compartment contacts.
• Protect the batteries from direct sunlight, rain, heat, and water.
• Exposure of batteries to an environment with extremely high
temperatures or an extremely low air pressure may result in ex-
plosion or leakage of flammable liquids and gases.
• Dispose of defective and discharged batteries immediately and
properly (see chapter on disposal).
• Do not use modified or damaged batteries.
• Always select the correct battery type.
• Always insert the batteries correctly, taking into account the po-
larity (+ / -).
• Never mix batteries of di erent manufacturers, capacities (new
and used), size, or type within a device.
• If a battery has leaked, put on protective gloves and clean the
battery compartment with a dry cloth.
• If fluid from a battery comes into contact with your skin or eyes,
wash the a ected areas with water and seek medical assistance.
• Choking hazard! Keep batteries out of the reach of children.
Seek medical attention immediately if swallowed. Swallowing
them may cause burns, severe internal injuries, and death.
• Never allow children to replace batteries without adult supervi-
sion.
CAUTION
• Store batteries in a well-ventilated, dry, and cool place in a
non-conductive container in which the batteries cannot be
short-circuited to each other or by other metal objects.
• Keep batteries clean and dry.
• Keep batteries away from water.
