The Beurer Wellbeing Diagnostic Bathroom Scale (model BF 180) uses bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) to measure weight, BMI, body fat, muscle percentage, bone mass and body water in one step, shown on a large backlit display. Its 10 user memory slots and 5 selectable activity levels mean each member of a household can track their own personalised results over time.

Key Features

• Full body composition analysis: Measures weight, BMI, body fat, muscle percentage, bone mass and body water using bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA).
• Quick-start activation: The scale switches on and begins measuring automatically as soon as you step onto it.
• 10 user memories with 5 activity levels: Each household member can store a personal profile and activity level for a more personalised daily calorie (BMR) calculation.
• Ultra-thin safety glass design: A 6mm safety glass platform with stainless steel electrodes, just 1.9cm thick, for easy storage.
• 180kg weight capacity with 100g graduation: Readings are shown in kg, lb or st.

How accurate are the body fat, water and muscle readings?

These readings are an approximation based on bioelectrical impedance analysis, not a clinical measurement. Only a doctor can precisely establish body fat, water, muscle and bone values using medical methods.

Who should not use this scale?

This scale should not be used by anyone with a pacemaker or other medical implant, as the measurement current may affect its function, and it should not be used during pregnancy.

What batteries does this scale use?

It uses two 3V CR2032 batteries. Keep batteries out of reach of small children, who may swallow or choke on them.

1. Install the two included CR2032 batteries.
2. Place the scale on a hard, level floor rather than carpet.
3. Step onto the platform; Quick-start technology activates the scale automatically.
4. Stand still, barefoot, with your weight evenly distributed until your weight and body composition values are displayed.
5. For body fat, water and muscle readings, weigh yourself barefoot; the soles of your feet may be lightly dampened if needed.

For consistent tracking, weigh yourself at the same time each day, ideally in the morning, after using the toilet, before eating and without clothing. Select the correct activity level from the 5 available, and store your profile in one of the 10 user memory slots for a more personalised calorie (BMR) calculation; you can switch the display between kg, lb and st.

The following precautions apply when using this scale:

• Do not use if you have a pacemaker or other medical implant, as the body composition measurement current may affect its function.
• Do not use this scale during pregnancy.
• Body composition readings (body fat, water, muscle and bone mass) are an approximation, not a substitute for a clinical assessment; only a doctor can precisely measure these values using medical methods.
• Keep batteries out of reach of small children, who may swallow or choke on them.
• If skin or eyes come into contact with battery fluid, rinse the affected area with water and seek medical assistance.
