How To Operate

back of scale should be set to “lb”. If scale does not have a switch, it is
automatically set to measure in “lb”.)
2. Place the scale on an even, flat surface for accurate operation and safety.
3. Quickly and firmly tap center of scale platform with foot to activate
digital display.
4. When “000.0”or “00.0”or “0.0” appears in display window, step onto scale.
DO NOT STEP ONTO SCALE UNTIL “000.0”/“00.0”/“0.0” APPEARS IN
WINDOW.
5. Stand on platform without shifting or moving until weight is displayed
(4 - 5 seconds).
NOTE: Digital display automatically turns off after several seconds.
Helpful Hints
Your Thinner ® scale is a precise measuring instrument that is most accurate
when weighing a stationary object. To ensure the most accurate readings always
try to stand on the same area of the scale platform and DO NOT MOVE. Should
the weight on the scale exceed the scale’s capacity, you may see an error
message ”ERR”.
Electronic sensors are sensitive. Be careful not to drop or jar the scale. Place it
gently onto floor surface, and store where it will be protected from impact.
The scale is an electronic instrument and should never be submerged in water.
Clean with damp cloth only.
In the unlikely event that the scale battery malfunctions and needs to be
replaced, open the battery cover on the bottom of the scale and replace the
old battery with a new one. Properly dispose of the old battery. Do not attempt
to open the scale or to remove any components. Servicing should be done
by qualified technicians only. See warranty information below.

THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW ABOUT
MANAGING YOUR WEIGHT
Diet, exercise, and determination all play a part in effective weight
management. Your scale is the tool that lets you chart your progress, and
measure your success, whether your goal is weight loss, weight gain, or
maintaining your current weight.
Because weight varies, as explained below, focus on the progression and
sustained long-term changes rather than on exact day-to-day readings. When
you’re dieting and exercising, small, fluctuating weight gains and losses
are common.
Common Causes of Weight Fluctuations (during the day,
and day-to-day)
• Water retention and weight gain from consumption of large meals
• Water retention from salt and carbohydrate intake
• Muscle buildup (muscle weighs more than fat) from strenuous
resistance training
• Weight loss caused by dehydration due to illness, low fluid intake
or strenuous exercise
• Temporary weight gains and losses from menstrual cycle
Weight Maintenance vs. Weight Loss/Gain
Get into the habit of weighing yourself no more than once a week when you’re
on a weight management program. Weighing in at consistent intervals will give
you the most accurate picture of your progress, eliminating many short-term,
unrelated weight changes.
