The new generation of EKS Body Analyzer Scales calculates your body composition using unique
TAMM Triple Aided Multi-frequency Measurement” technology. This technology is superior to basic
bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) technology and will provide you with highly accurate readings.
With the basic BIA, the individual resistance in the body tissue is measured by a low-level electrical sig-
nal that passes through your body. It is easy for the signal to ow through uids in the muscle and other
tissues but it meets resistance as it passes through body fat.
Dierent frequency signals determine the proportion of body fat, water, muscles and bone mass in the
human body. As the sizes and the distance between body cells vary, they react dierently to dierent
frequencies.
Contrary to the usually applied 50 kHz signal to determine body fat and water percentage, EKS’ clinically
validated studies show that 54kHz is the optimum frequency for a more precise measurement.
In order to guarantee the precision of the measurement of all relevant tissues with dierent character-
istics, two further frequencies 52.6 kHz and 56 kHz run parallel with and support the 54 kHz: This is the
meaning of the phrase Triple Aided Multi-frequency Measurement.
EKS Body Analyzer Scales are designed for healthy living. Their unique technology enables the accurate
measurement of key body health indicators and come equipped with an “athlete” mode for those
involved in intense physical activity.
WARNINGS:
To ensure that you use the scale correctly and safely, please read these warnings and the entire
user manual carefully.
This scale is designed to make a vital contribution to your health. However, we recommend that you
consult a doctor when you are overweight and before trying to lose weight. Recommendations on
exercise programs or a weight loss diet should be provided by your doctor or specialist. Do not try to
interpret the data of this scale yourself.
Disclaimer:
The following people should not use this analyzer:
- People with battery driven implants
- Pregnant women
- This device is for domestic use only and is not suitable for children
under 18.
Scales with glass surfaces may be slippery when wet.
Do not stand with wet feet on the scale.
EKS cannot be held responsible for any damage or injuries caused by an analyser to
the user or any third party.
Cleaning and care
l When cleaning use only a slightly damp cloth. Do not use any solvents or abrasive substances.
l Do not immerse the scale into water.
l Do not store the scale in places that might adversely aect it: this includes places subject to
moisture, high temperature and electromagnetic elds.
