Tips for the most accurate measurements

  • Please ensure that you are the only person to use your scale, as each measurement is automatically recorded and sent to your clinician for monitoring.

  • Take your weight measurement at the same time every day, preferably in the morning.

  • Place the scale on a hard, even surface like a tiled or wooden floor. Avoid using the device on a carpet.

  • For the most accurate measurements, use your scale on the ground floor of your building.

Storage and maintenance instructions

  • It is best to store and use the device at the same location. If possible, try to avoid moving the device while not in use.

  • Store the device in a clean and dry place. The device is not water resistant.

  • Avoid exposure to direct sunlight, extreme heat, cold or humidity.

  • Clean the device with a soft, dry cloth. If necessary use a dampened cloth and natural detergent. Do not use alcohol or other harsh chemicals.
