To obtain a correct result, please observe the following no-
tes:
• Do not move during the measurement!
• Ensure suffi cient contact between your fi ngers and the
electrodes.
• Your arms should be stretched out (straight elbows).
• Do not hold your arms too high or too low in front of
your body.
If you would like to have your pulse rate displayed du-
ring the workout, you do not need to observe the listed
points and notes. Here it is more than enough to simp-
ly place your palms on the sensors.
The measurement result will be displayed after approx. 15
seconds. You will be able to read the information about your
body fat percentage (%) and the BMI value.
The following table will indicate to you how to classify the
determined values. Please remember that the measured
values are merely reference points to help you choose the
most reasonable form of exercise as well as to determine
your current physical condition. The measured values are
on ly to be used for the workout and serve no medical
pur pose.

Body fat percentage

This value indicates how much of your overall body weight
consists of fatty tissue (body fat in percentage).

BMI (Body Mass Index)

The BMI applies the body weight to the body surface that is
calculated from the square of the body size. The BMI is me-
rely a rough estimate, as it considers neither the stature and
gender nor the individual composition of the body mass of
fat and muscle tissue of a human.
To exit the programme, press the body fat button again.
