power-o in 15 seconds.

2. Unpairing your device will not delete the data from the

APP.

3. If you re-pair your smartphone with the device, all prior

reading history stored on the phone APP will be re-

tained.

5. Electromagnetic interference: Avoid strong electrical or

electromagnetic elds in the direct vicinity of the de-

vice.

1. The unit switch button is located at the bottom of the

scale.

2. Press the unit switch button to select your desired unit

from “kg” (kilo gram) to “lb” (pound) or to “公斤” (kilo

gram) when the monitor displays “0.0”.

Do you have a question about the Rossmax WF262 and is the answer not in the manual?

The Rossmax Model WF262 is a Bluetooth Body Fat Scale designed to provide comprehensive body composition measurements and seamlessly integrate with a smartphone application for data tracking and analysis. This device is intended for private use to help individuals monitor their health and fitness progress.

Function Description

The primary function of the Rossmax WF262 is to measure body weight and estimate various body composition parameters, including body fat percentage, body muscle percentage, visceral fat level, Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR), and Body Mass Index (BMI). It utilizes bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) technology, where a very low electrical signal passes through the body to estimate these values. The scale displays weight readings directly on its LCD screen, while other detailed body composition data are transferred to a connected smartphone application, "Healthstyle APP," for comprehensive tracking and analysis.

The scale calculates BMI using the formula: weight(kg) / (height(m) * height(m)), providing a simple index to classify underweight, normal weight, pre-obesity, and different classes of obesity. Body fat percentage indicates the amount of stored fat as a percentage of total body weight, which is crucial for basic body functions like organ protection, joint cushioning, and temperature regulation. Body muscle percentage reflects the proportion of muscle mass in the body. Visceral fat, a type of fat stored within the abdominal cavity, is also measured, as high levels can increase the risk of serious health problems. BMR, or Basal Metabolic Rate, indicates the minimum caloric intake required to sustain the body's everyday functions at rest.

Usage Features

The Rossmax WF262 is designed for ease of use with several user-friendly features.

Preparation and Setup: Before first use, users need to remove an isolation sheet from the battery compartment. The scale operates on three "AAA" batteries. Battery replacement is straightforward: press down and lift the battery cover, replace the batteries according to the indications, and then reattach the cover. It is crucial to insert batteries with correct polarities and use brand-new batteries of the same brand and type.

Unit Switching: A unit switch button located at the bottom of the scale allows users to select their preferred measurement unit: kilograms (kg), pounds (lb), or "公斤" (kilo gram). This selection is made when the monitor displays "0.0".

Taking a Measurement:

Placement: The scale must be placed on a firm and flat floor, avoiding cushioned surfaces like carpets or mats, to ensure accurate readings.
Smartphone Integration: For full functionality, users need to download and install the free "Healthstyle APP" on their smartphone. Bluetooth must be enabled on the smartphone, and personal data should be set up within the app.
Automatic Activation: The scale turns on automatically when a user gently steps on it. The LCD display will show "0.0 kg(lb)" and a Bluetooth symbol.
Bluetooth Pairing and Data Transfer: The device pairs with the smartphone via Bluetooth. A successful connection is indicated by an illuminated Bluetooth symbol (x) on the scale's display. If pairing fails, the symbol will illuminate, and subsequent readings (up to 10) will be temporarily stored in the device. These stored readings will be automatically transmitted to the app upon the next successful connection.
Measurement Process: Users should step onto the measurement platform carefully with bare feet, ensuring their feet are on the electrodes (stainless steel area). It is important to remain stationary until the measured reading stops flashing on the display, indicating completion of the measurement.
Reading Display: The measured weight will blink twice and then lock on the LCD display. All detailed body composition values (body weight, body fat in %, muscle in %, visceral fat level, BMR, and BMI) can then be checked and tracked within the Healthstyle APP.

Important Usage Notes:

Users should wait for "0.0 kg" to appear before stepping on the monitor.
The monitor automatically powers off after 15 seconds of inactivity to conserve battery.
Unpairing the device does not delete data from the app; re-pairing retains prior reading history.
Bluetooth data transfer consumes battery capacity.
Users with implanted medical equipment (e.g., cardiac pacemakers) or those using life support medical equipment should not use the scale due to potential interference from the low electrical signal.
Pregnant women should avoid using this device.
Measurements should be taken with dry, bare feet on the weighing platform.
Individuals with disabilities should seek assistance or use support devices to prevent falls.
Avoid dropping heavy objects on the monitor, as the glass surface is breakable.
Do not step on the edge or jump on the measurement platform to prevent injury or device damage.

Maintenance Features

Proper care and maintenance ensure the longevity and accuracy of the Rossmax WF262 scale.

Cleaning: The scale should be cleaned only with a slightly damp cloth. Harsh solvents or abrasive cleaning agents should not be used, as they can damage the device. The scale should never be submerged in water.

Storage: Store the scale in a dry location and keep it horizontal. Direct sunlight exposure should be avoided. When not in use for extended periods, it is recommended to remove the batteries to prevent leakage and potential damage.

Handling: Handle the unit gently and avoid strong shocks, such as dropping it on the floor, to prevent damage to the internal components and the glass surface.

Troubleshooting: The manual provides guidance for common error messages:

No display: Indicates a flat or missing battery, or improperly installed batteries. The solution is to replace or re-insert batteries correctly. If the weight is less than the auto-on value (5-15kg), users need to step on the scale or press it hard to meet this threshold.
"Lo" symbol: Signifies low battery, requiring battery replacement.
Dashed lines (---): Indicates that the weight value exceeds the maximum measurement range (150 kg). Users should remove the critical load to prevent load cell damage.
"[ ]" symbol: Denotes a measurement error, prompting users to re-follow the measurement steps.
"a" symbol: Indicates a data transmit failure, suggesting users connect the device with their smartphone and try transferring data again.

By following these guidelines, users can ensure accurate measurements and extend the lifespan of their Rossmax WF262 Bluetooth Body Fat Scale.
