Getting Started - Salter MAXVIEW ANALYSER Bedienungsanleitung

HOW DOES THE MAXVIEW ANALYSER 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.

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
t
is scarce. However, too much body fat or indeed too little body fat can be damaging to
your health. It is difficult 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' .
