4.1. Prepare Measuring
Before measuring, you should apply gel on the test site.
Warning: Improper or less gel may lead to incorrect result or no
reading as the ultrasound can’t pass through air or air bubble.
4.2. Measuring
1) Press the ‘Power/Scan’ button to measure (see figure4-1).
Apply the probe to the test site, force out the air and air bubble
between the probe and the test skin.

Warning: it should be confirmed that the probe is perpendicular
to the test site to avoid incorrect result.
2) If there is no back fat reading in 20 seconds, the information will
be shown on the screen (see figure 4-2). You can press the
‘Power/Scan’ button to measure again.
