BMR
The basal metabolic rate (BMR) is the amount of energy required by the body at complete rest in order to
maintain its basic functions (e.g. when lying in bed 24 hours a day). This value is primarily dependent on
weight, height and age.
It is displayed on the diagnostic scale in the unit kcal/day and calculated using the scientifically recog-
nised Harris-Benedict equation.
This is the amount of energy that is required by your body under all circumstances and must be re-sup-
plied to the body in the form of food. If your energy intake is below this level in the longer term, this can
result in damage to health.
AMR
The active metabolic rate (AMR) is the amount of energy that the active body consumes each day. An indi-
vidual's energy requirement increases when the level of physical activity increases; the diagnostic scale
calculates this by means of the activity level (1– 5) that has been entered.
To maintain the current weight, the energy that the body uses must be replaced in the form of food and drink.
If less energy is taken in than is used over a long period of time, the body takes the difference from the fat
stores with resulting weight loss. However, if the amount of energy taken in exceeds the calculated active
metabolic rate (AMR) for a longer period, the body cannot burn off the excess energy. The excess is stored
in the body as fat, leading to weight gain.
Temporal context of the results
Please note that only the long-term trend is important. Brief deviations in weight within a few days
are normally caused by loss of fluids.
The interpretation of the results is based on changes in total body weight, percentage of body fat, body water
and muscle content, as well as on the length of time over which these changes occur.
Rapid changes within the scope of a few days are to be considered separately from medium-term
changes (in the scope of weeks) and long-term changes (months).
It can be said as a basic rule that short-term changes in weight are almost entirely changes in water content,
whereas medium-term and long-term changes may also relate to the fat percentage and the muscle percentage.
• If your weight drops in the short term but your body fat percentage increases or stays the same, you
have only lost water, for example following a training session, visit to the sauna or a diet aimed only at
fast weight loss.
• On the other hand, if your weight increases in the medium term and your body fat percentage drops or
stays the same, you may have built up valuable muscle mass.
• If your weight and body fat percentage both fall at the same time, then your diet is working – you are los-
ing fat mass.
• Ideally, you should support your diet with physical activity, fitness or strength training. This enables you
to increase your muscle percentage in the medium term.
• Body fat, body water and muscle percentages must not be added (muscle tissue also contains compo-
nents made of body water).

User assignment
It is possible to assign up to 8 scale users for a weight-only measurement (with shoes) and for a diagnosis
measurement (bare feet).
For a new measurement, the scale assigns the measurement to the user whose most recently saved
measurement falls within ± 3kg of this. See chapter "Take measurement".
Storing the assigned measurements on the scale and transferring them to the app.
If the app is not open, the newly assigned measurements are saved on the scale. A total of 30 measure-
ments per user can be saved on the scale. The saved measurements are transferred automatically to the
app if you open the app within the Bluetooth
It is possible to automatically transfer data when the scale is switched off.
Deleting scale data
If you would like to completely delete all measurements and old user data on the scale, remove the batter-
ies for at least 10 seconds. Then press the unit/reset button and reinsert the batteries at the same time. "
