For Accurate Measurements
Avoid measuring after hard exercise.
May result in measurement errors. Please take measurements after sufficient rest.
Avoid measuring after over-eating or over-drinking, and when severely
dehydrated.
May result in measurement errors. For greater accuracy, avoid using directly
after waking up. Use at the same time on each occasion, at least three hours after
eating.
Do not take measurements while using transmitters, such as mobile phones, which may
affect readings.
Use the product under the same conditions and in the same position as
much as possible to track changes.
Readings are greatly affected by the level of hydration and position of the body.
Please use at the same time each day, under the same conditions and in the same
body position.
Avoid measuring in multiple locations with greatly differing temperatures.
This may cause inaccurate measurements. Allow the product to stand for at least
2 hours before using if it is moved to a new location with a temperature difference
of 36°F/20℃ or more.
Always hold both arms straight down when taking measurements to prevent measurement
errors such as undermeasurement of body fat.
Bare feet should be placed correctly on the electrode platform.
Place arms straight down during measurement.
Use in a stable location.
Errors in measurements may occur when the product is used in an unstable location.

Troubleshooting
- Please check the following before asking for repair.
Is it installed at a place with vibrations?
Is the platform inclined?
Keep the platform horizontal.
Is anything caught in the gaps of the
platform?
Remove anything caught in the gaps.
The measured weight is
not stable.
Symptom Please check

is displayed.
Check that the power supply is connected
correctly.
The weight to measure exceeds the
measurement range.
If the soles of your feet are dry, use a
dropper to drop about 0.5mL of water on
the electrodes before measurement.
Turn off the power, and remove the items
on the platform and turn on the power
again, and then redo the measurement.
In the case that an error is displayed other than the above, turn off the power once, and then
measure again.
If the same error is displayed repeatedly, contact our customer service center.

Body composition measurement by the BIA method.
- Principles of body composition measurement
BIA is a means of measuring body composition – fat mass, predicted muscle mass, etc. – by
measuring bioelectrical impedance in the body. Fat within the body allows almost no electricity to
pass through, while electricity passes rather easily through water, much of which is found in
muscles. The degree of difficulty with which electricity passes through a substance is known as the
electrical resistance, and the percentage of fat and other body constituents can be inferred from
measurements of this resistance.
The TANITA Body Composition Analyzer measures body composition using a constant current
source with a high frequency current (50 kHz, 90 µA). The 8 electrodes are positioned so that electric
current is supplied from the electrodes on the tips of the toes of both feet, and voltage is measured
on the heel of both feet. The current flows into the upper limbs or lower limbs, depending on the
body part(s) to be measured.
- What is dilution method?
In the dilution method, a labeled substance for a known amount is given and the concentration in
equilibrium diffusing evenly is measured to obtain the total amount of the solvent that dilutes the
labeled substance.
To measure the total body water (TBW), deuterium oxide (D2O) is generally used as the labeled
substance. Deuterium oxide uses the overall total body water as dilution space so the total body
water can be obtained. To obtain the extracellular fluid amount, sodium bromide (NaBr) is used as a
labeled substance. Bromine (Br) is said to not enter the inside of cells, and uses extracellular fluid as
the dilution space.
Body composition measurement
results obtained by DXA
(Lunar Co., Ltd; DPX-L)
- What is the DXA method?
DXA was originally designed to measure bone mineral content, but
in the full-body scan mode the body fat percentage, fat mass, and
fat free mass of individual body parts (arms, legs, trunk) can also
be measured. The image below shows one example of body
composition measurement results obtained by DXA.
- Introduction
This equipment provides estimated values for each measured value of body fat percentage, fat mass,
fat-free mass, muscle mass and bone mass by the DXA method, estimated value for the total body
water measured value by the dilution method and estimated value for the visceral fat rating by MRI
method using the Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis (BIA method).
For measurement, a mode must be selected based on body type.
1) Standard (for 5
99 years of age)
2) Athletic (for Athletic persons who exercise considerably more than non-athlete)
Making a distinction by body type in the measurement mode produces more reliable body
composition measurements for athletic persons, whose body compositions differ from those of
average persons.
