My Taylor Scale model 7404 claimed to have a "long life time battery" and that if used in health club, or such, applications may require replacement after time. My scale is used maybe once a week, and has required battery replacement twice, lasting little more than a year each time. What is a long life time battery?

SOURCE: resetting the scale

You do not reset the scale. It only saves the last recorded weight of the user. So, if you weighed yesterday, it will put your recorded weight in memory. The next time you select your user number and step on the scale, it will compute the difference from your previous record and save your current weight.

SOURCE: unable to reset health o meter scale BFM676 need instruction man

I just got a BFM676 without instructions. I looked on Health O meter's home page. I then looked through various instruction manuals. One of them worked.

To adjust profiles. Turn on by pressing scroll. Choose profile number you want to edit with the scroll button. Hold down the Select button until the first height number starts flashing. Use the scroll button to change the numbers. Use the select button to change to the next field. Have fun. =)

This is a reply I received from Taylor customer support. I have followed this procedure enough times to wear out the original battery and still get the Err 1 message. You may have better luck.

Thank you for your e-mail. The reboot below may clear the error from
your scale. You may need to do this several times to completely reboot
the system. Please let us know if you have any questions or continue to
display the Error.


1. Remove the battery from the scale
2. Set the scale on the floor without the battery in place.
3. Stand on the scale for 10 seconds (still without the battery)
4. Carefully replace the battery without turning the scale on.
5. Using only one foot, tap the scale or apply just enough pressure to
turn on the display. (It should show dashes or zero's) IMMEDIATELY
REMOVE YOUR FOOT.
6. Let the scale turn off
7. Step on the scale for a weight reading
