7. Incorrect measurement
If the scale detects an error during weighing, „ BF ” or “ ” appears in the display.
If you step onto the scale before “ 0.0” appears in the display, the scale will not operate properly.
Possible causes of error:
– The maximum load-bearing capacity of 150 kg
(330 lbs) was exceeded.
Remedy:
– Only weigh the maximum permissible weight.
– The electrical resistance between the electrodes
and the soles of your feed is too high (e.g. with
heavily callused skin).
– Repeat weighing barefoot. Slightly moisten the
soles of your feet if necessary. Remove the cal-
luses on the soles of your feet if necessary.
– Your body fat lies outside the measurable range
(less than 5 % or greater than 80 %).
– Repeat weighing barefoot.
– Slightly moisten the soles of your feet if neces-
sary.

rable range (less than 43 % or greater than
