ULTIMATE ACCURACY This Salter Ultimate Accuracy Scale features 50g increments

for precise weight management.

HOW DOES THIS SALTER SCALE WORK? This Salter scale uses BIA (Bio Impedance

Analysis) technology which passes a tiny electrical impulse through the body to

determine fat from lean tissue, the electrical impulse cannot be felt and is perfectly

safe. Contact with the body is made via stainless steel pads on the platform of the

scale. This method simultaneously calculates your personal weight, body fat, total

body water, BMI, Basal Metabolic Rate and muscle mass, giving you a more accurate

reading of your overall health and ﬁtness. This scale will also display weight, body

fat and total body water for children and young adults aged 6-17 years. Muscle

mass, BMI and BMR are not shown for this age range.

This scale stores the personal data of up to 12 users. As well as being an analyser

scale, this scale can be used as a conventional scale.

NEW FEATURE! This scale features our convenient step-on operation. Once

initialised the scale can be operated by simply stepping straight on the platform – no

more waiting!

BODY FAT -WHAT DOES IT MEAN?

The human body is made up of, amongst other things, a percentage of fat. This is

vital for a healthy, functioning body - it cushions joints and protects vital organs,

helps regulate body temperature, stores vitamins and helps the body sustain itself

when food is scarce. However, too much body fat or indeed too little body fat can

be damaging to your health. It is dicult to gauge how much body fat we have in

our bodies simply by looking at ourselves in the mirror. This is why it is important

to measure and monitor your body fat percentage. Body fat percentage gives you a

better measure of ﬁtness than weight alone – the composition of your weight loss

could mean you are losing muscle mass rather than fat - you could still have a high

percentage of fat even when a scale indicates ‘normal weight’.

Can't find the answer to your question in the manual? You may find the answer to your question in the FAQs about the Salter 9173 BK3R below.

What does BMI stand for?

BMI stands for Body Mass Index and is a simple tool to check if a person has a healthy weight. A BMI below 18.5 means that a person is underweight. A BMI between 20 and 25 means a healthy weight and over 30 is severely overweight or obese.

What time of day should I weigh myself?

The best time to weigh is early in the morning just after you've been to the toilet and haven't had breakfast yet.

Can I use my scale when my feet are wet?

Whether you can use the scale when your feet are wet depends on the type of scale. A diagnostic scale will distort the measurement if you have wet feet. Wet feet will not affect the measurement of other types of scales.

What does the abbreviation lb stand for?

The abbreviation lb stands for Libra Pound and is the abbreviation for a pound.

How many grams are in a pound?

One pound is equal to 453.59237 grams.

How do I best clean my scale?

It is best to clean your scale with a slightly damp cloth and then dry it well.

A battery in my scale has started to corrode. Is the device still safe to use?

The product can still be used safely after proper cleaning. Remove the battery with gloves and clean the battery compartment with a toothbrush and vinegar. After drying, new batteries can be inserted into the device.
