I'm trying to use the user function so I may know what my BF Weight, BF%, Body Water, and Bone Mass are. The problem is, I don't have the manual and when I use it in user mode and when it gets to the weight and I stand on it, all 4 sections say ERR...Only one time it worked, but I have no idea how I did it. May you help me?
Not only barefoot but also wet your feet before you step on the scale. I always weigh in right out of the shower.
I discovered that it helps if your feet are slightly damp. I usually wipe them with a washcloth before getting on the scale. They don't have to be WET, just every so slightly damp.
Select the appropriate User number, hit set.
Select the appropriate height, hit set.
Select the appropriate age, hit set.
Select the appropriate gender, hit set.
To use, select the same user number, wait for 0.0 to appear, and go for it.
I had the same problem and think i figured it out. here's what to do.
set your "user" setting by pressing user, then the arrow keys to adjust your height and age, and to indicate male or female (make sure you get these right because it's impossible to figure out how to re-se them).
after you get it set, press "user" until your user number comes up (1, 2, 3, or 4). the readout will display the same info you entered as your settings, followed by 0.0.
get on the scale, making sure your heels are on the metal pieces at the bottom of the scale. (some people seem to think it works better if your feet are slightly damp, although in my case it didn't matter).
the scale will first display your weight (ouch!) and then a few seconds later, the bottom line of text that includes body fat in lbs, body fat %, water % and bone mass index.
you can compare your #s to the table enclosed. hope this helps!
What do you do if your user button no longer seems to be working? How do you fix that?

You have to step on the scale BAREFOOT to get the other readings.
Otherwise the scan fails and you get all ERR.

I too have the same problem. The scale indicates the weight in user mode, however all other readouts display as ERR.
OK. but if you dont have a manual, how do you set and use the bmil function please.
I know my numbers from the scale but now I need to know the ideal numbers for my %water and bone mass. Does anyone know of a website I can go to with tables and ideal number ranges i.e. I am 45 year old female and I assume my number would be different than a 20 year old.
