This document is the instruction manual for Omron HBF-306C Fat Loss Monitor. It introduces how to use the device to measure body fat percentage and body mass index
The Omron HBF-306C Fat Loss Monitor is a device designed to estimate body fat percentage and body mass index (BMI) using the Bioelectrical Impedance Method. The manual explains the underlying principles, including how the device sends a low-level electrical current through the body to determine fat tissue levels based on factors like height, weight, age, and gender. It also details the calculation of BMI ranges and provides specific recommendations for when to take measurements to ensure accuracy, such as avoiding measurements immediately after eating or exercising.
| Measurement Method | Bioelectrical Impedance Method |
|---|---|
| Current Frequency | 50 kHz |
| Current Amplitude | 500 µA |
| Battery Type | 2 "AAA" Batteries |
No, this monitor cannot be used with a pacemaker or other implanted devices.
Avoid measuring immediately after drinking water or eating, drinking alcohol, vigorous exercise, or bathing/sauna.
The calculation includes electric resistance, height, weight, age, and gender.
