tomatically recalls this information to calculate the
change in weight between the current and the previ-
ous weighings. This dierence is then instantly tran-
scribed into kilograms on the screen and the extent of
this change appears in the form of a coloured indicator
according to the table below.
A weight loss or weight gain that is too great over a
relatively short period is synonymous with stress for
your body. Regular and moderate loss will respect your
body more.

∆Kg ≥ 1000g
b. Body mass index (BMI)
The body mass index lets you estimate overweight or
underweight. Its classication indicates a predispos-
tion to weight-related risks. It is calculated using the
following formula: BMI = weight (Kg)/Height2 (m2). For
a more detailed interpretation of the BMI, please refer
to the following table (also found on the detachable
part of the cover):
Important: Don’t focus on a single measurement, but
observe the progress over time. Short-term uctua-
tions are normal. Keep in mind that you know your
body best; the tables below are for information only.
