Setting up the scale

Set up the scale on a level and solid surface. A solid surface is a prerequisite for a correct measurement.

6. Installing the control unit

Setting up the control unit

You can either hold the control unit in your hand, set it on a lev-

el surface or keep it on the scale. The black plastic part with the 

Beurer logo is a magnetic wall holder for wall mounting.
Fold out the pedestal as shown in order to rest the control unit on 

a level surface.

Wall mounting 

Using the mounting kit, you can mount the control unit on a 

wall. Use the mounting kit provided and install the wall holder 

as shown.

•  Drill 2 holes in the wall next to each other horizontally, 

spaced 82 mm apart. Using a 6 mm drill, drill holes in the 

wall with a depth of approx. 40 mm. Insert the wall plugs.

•  Turn the fastening screws into the wall plugs, until only 

about 4 mm of the screw heads protrude.

•  Fasten the wall holder, then set the control unit on the magnetic 

holder.

Alternative wall mounting method

•  You can also fasten the wall holder to a wall using the double-sid-

ed adhesive tape. For this purpose, the wall surface must be clean 

and dry.

•  Remove the protective film from the adhesive tape on the rear side 

of the wall holder.

•  Press the wall holder firmly against the wall.

7. Information

The measuring principle

This scale operates according to the B.I.A. principle (bioelectric impedance analysis). This enables the 

measurement of physical relationships within seconds by means of an undetectable, completely harmless 

electric current. The body fat percentage and other physical relationships in the body can be determined 

by measuring the electrical resistance (impedance) and calculating constants and individual parameters 

such as age, height, gender and degree of activity. 
Muscle tissue and water have good electrical conductivity, and therefore lower resistance. Bones and fatty 

tissue, on the other hand, have low conductivity as fat cells and bones conduct hardly any current as a re-

sult of their very high resistance. 
Please be aware that values obtained from the diagnostic scale represent only an approximation of actual 

analytical medical data. Only a specialist physician can accurately determine body fat, body water, muscle 

percentage and bone structure using medical procedures (e.g. computed tomography).

General tips

•  If possible, always weigh yourself at the same time of day (preferably in the morning), after using the toi-

let, on an empty stomach and unclothed, in order to achieve comparable results. 

•  Important for the measurement: only measure body fat when barefoot and with the soles of the feet 

slightly moist. Completely dry soles can result in unsatisfactory measurements due to inadequate con-

ductivity.
