Weight and BMI
Four load cells measure weight. BMI is calculated and displayed based on weight.
Body composition
The scale measures body mass using bioimpedance analysis. ITO electrodes form a pattern on the top of the scale, and send a small, safe signal through the body to measure impedance.
- Advisory: Measuring body impedance is not suitable for those with pacemakers.
- Suitable for pregnant women but body fat measurements will not be accurate.
