PRINCIPLES OF ESTIMATING BODY FAT PERCENTAGE
Tanita Body Fat Monitor/Scales allow you to determine your body fat
percentage at home as easily as you measure your weight.
What is Body Fat Percentage?
Body fat percentage is the percentage of fat in your body. Too much body
fat has been linked to conditions such as high blood pressure, heart
disease, diabetes, cancer, and other disabling conditions.
The BIA Method
Tanita Body Fat Monitor/Scales use the BIA (Bioelectrical Impedance
Analysis) technique. In this method, a safe, low-level electrical signal is
passed through the body. It is difficult for the signal to flow through fat in
the human body, but easy to flow through moisture in the muscle and other
body tissues. The difficulty with which a signal flows through a substance
is called impedance. So the more resistance, or impedance, the signal
encounters, the higher the body fat reading.
Body Fat Percentage Fluctuations in a Day
Hydration levels in the body may affect body fat readings. Readings are
usually highest in the early waking hours, since the body tends to be
dehydrated after a long night’s sleep. For the most accurate reading, a
person should take a body fat percentage reading at a consistent time of day
under consistent conditions.
Besides this basic cycle of fluctuations in the daily body fat readings,
variations may be caused by hydration changes in the body due to eating,
drinking, menstruation, illness, exercising, and bathing. Daily body fat
readings are unique to each person, and depend upon one’s lifestyle, job
and activities.

INTRODUCTION
Thank you for selecting a Tanita Body Fat Monitor/Scale. This model uses
the BIA (Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis) technique, a state-of-the-art
technology for body fat assessment.
Safety Precautions
•Persons with implanted electronic medical equipment, such
as a pacemaker, should not use the Body Fat Monitor feature
on this Tanita Body Fat Monitor/Scale. This Body Fat
Monitor/Scale passes a low-level electrical signal through
the body, which may interfere with the operation of a
pacemaker.
•The Tanita Body Fat Monitor/Scales are intended for home use only.
This unit is not intended for professional use in hospitals or other
medical facilities; it is not equipped with the quality standards required
for heavy usage experienced under professional conditions.
•Do not use this unit on slippery surfaces such as wet floors.
Important Notes for Users
This Body fat monitor is intended for adults and children (ages 7-17) with inactive to
moderately active lifestyles and adults with athletic body types.
Tanita defines “athlete” as a person involved in intense physical activity
of approximately 10 hours per week and who has a resting heart rate of
approximately 60 beats per minute or less. Tanita’s athlete definition
includes “lifetime of fitness” individuals who have been fit for years but
currently exercise less than 10 hours per week.
The body fat monitor function is not intended for pregnant women,
professional athletes or bodybuilders.
Recorded data may be lost if the unit is used incorrectly or is exposed to
electrical power surges. Tanita takes no responsibility for any kind of loss
caused by the loss of recorded data.
Tanita takes no responsibility for any kind of damage or loss caused by these
units, or any kind of claim made by a third person.
Note: Read this Instruction Manual carefully and
keep it handy for future reference.
Note: Body fat percentage estimates will vary
with the amount of water in the body, and can be
affected by dehydration or over-hydration due to
such factors as alcohol consumption,
menstruation, illness, intense exercise, etc.

What is Total Body Water Percentage?
Total Body Water Percentage is the total amount of fluid in a person’s body expressed as a percentage of their total weight.
Approximately 50 –65% of the weight of a healthy person is water. Water plays a vital role in many of the body’s processes
and is found in every cell, tissue and organ. Maintaining a healthy total body water percentage will ensure the body
functions efficiently and will reduce the risk of developing associated health problems.

FEATURES AND FUNCTIONS
PREPARATIONS BEFORE USE
Inserting the Batteries
Open the battery cover on the back of the measuring platform. Insert the
supplied AA-batteries as indicated.
Note:
Be sure that the polarity of the batteries is set properly. If the batteries are
incorrectly positioned the fluid may leak and damage floors. If you do not intend to use this
unit for a long period of time, it is advisable to remove the batteries before storage.
Please note that since the batteries were inserted at the factory, their energy
levels may have decreased.
Positioning the Monitor
Place the measuring platform on a hard, flat surface where there is minimal
vibration to ensure safe and accurate measurement.
Note: To avoid possible injury, do not step on the edge of the platform.
Handling Tips
This monitor is a precision instrument utilizing state-of-the-art technology.
To keep the unit in the best condition, follow these instructions carefully:
•Do not attempt to disassemble the measuring platform.
•Store the unit horizontally, and place it so that the buttons will not be
pressed accidentally.
•Avoid excessive impact or vibration to the unit.
•Place the unit in an area free from direct sunlight, heating equipment,
high humidity, or extreme temperature change.
•Never submerge in water. Use alcohol to clean the electrodes and glass
cleaner (applied to a cloth first) to keep them shiny; avoid soaps.
•Do not step on the platform when wet.
•Do not drop any objects onto the platform.
Open as shown.

How To Measure Total Body Water?
Deuterium Dilution Method is currently used as a typical method to measure a total body water percentage. This
instrument estimates the total body percentage by the analysis (Multiple Regression Analysis) based on the parameter
found by the BIA method.
A mutuality over 0.8 is obtained between this instrument and the “deuterium dilution method”.
Note: Deuterium Dilution Method is in terms of total body water based on the analysis of the dilution of orally ingested deuterium oxide in urine.
Healthy Total Body Water Percentage (%TBW)
The average total body water percentage ranges for a healthy adult are:
Female: 50 to 55%
Male : 60 to 65%
Note: The total body water percentage of a person with a high percentage of body fat may fall below the average healthy ranges.
Daily Rhythm of Total Body Water
Try to measure total body water percentage at the same time of day and under the same conditions. This increases the
accuracy of the readings. The best time is in the early evening, before the evening meal, when hydration levels are more
stable. Total body water percentage tends to be underestimated to a degree if measured immediately after getting out of
bed, not only because of dehydration but also because the fluid in the body will be stored centrally in the body’s trunk.
As the day progresses this fluid becomes more evenly distributed due to the effect of gravity.
On the contrary, it may be overestimated after exercise or taking a bath because of the movement of body water or a rise in
the body temperature despite actual dehydration.
Important Notes
•Take your measurements at the same time of day and under the same conditions.
•Measured results depend on the movement of water in the body and/or changes in body temperature. Factors
affecting total body water levels include sleep, physical activity, eating and drinking, illness and medications, bathing
patterns and urination.
•Take fluid immediately if you have any symptoms of dehydration, particularly after physical activity or bathing.
Symptoms include a dry mouth, headache, nausea, dizziness, skin dryness, a rise in temperature, loss of
concentration, etc. If symptoms persist, consult your doctor immediately.
•Elderly people are at increased risk of dehydration as they have less sensitivity to thirst and other rational symptoms.
•This instrument cannot be used to specifically determine an individual’s recommended total body water percentage.
Look for the long-term changes in total body water percentage and try to maintain a consistent, healthy total body
water percentage.
