9 III. Getting to Know the Functions A. Data Transfer To transfer the data stored on the InBody Band to your smartphone, launch the InBody app and tap the Connect to InLab button at the bottom of the app screen. Note * For accurate detection, your steps are counted starting from the eighth step onwards and it may take a while for your step count to appear on the screen. * The walking distance measured may be different from the actual distance due to varied paces, standing jumps, reverse walking, and etc. * Only records for the last 17 days are stored. B. Functions 1. Time The current time is displayed. 2. InBody 1) Precautionary Steps Warning * Individuals with medical implant devices such as pacemakers, or essential support devices such as patient monitoring systems, must not use this equipment. The currents will flow through the body during the test, which may cause malfunctioning of the device or endanger lives. * Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis (BIA) uses safe low level currents, which are not harmful to the body. However, we do not recommend pregnant women test. Caution * Stand upright for about 5 minutes before testing. Taking the test immediately after lying in bed or sitting for a long period of time might result in a slight change in the test results. This is because body water tends to move to the lower body as soon as the person stands or gets up. * Do not eat before testing. In cases where the examinee has already eaten, the test should be put off for at least two hours after the meal. This is because food mass is included in the examinee’s weight and thus, may result in measurement errors. * Use the bathroom before testing. Waste is not included in the body’s compositional elements, but the volume of urine and excrement is included in the weight measurement affecting accuracy of the test results. * Do not exercise before testing. Strenuous exercise or sharp movements can cause temporary changes in body composition. Even light exercise can change your body composition temporarily. * Take the test in the morning, if possible. Body water tends to gravitate towards the lower body throughout the day, affecting accuracy of the test results. 2) Test Instruction ❶ Maintain proper posture to take the test.
10 ❷ The InBody Test will begin. ❸ When the test is completed, the results will be shown on screen. Results: Percent Body Fat Note * The InBody test function may not be used while the product is charging. 3) Test Posture The examinee must maintain proper posture to have accurate test results. * The test will proceed when there is good electrical contact. Note * Your arms must not touch the sides of your body. It is strongly recommended to wear shirts with sleeves. * The arm electrodes must touch your wrist completely and your finders must touch the hand electrodes completely. * Your hands must not touch one another. 4) Measurement Data PBF (Percentage of Body Fat, %) : Percentage of Body Fat indicates the percentage of body fat to body weight. The ideal percentage of body fat is 15 % for men and 23 % for women, while the normal range of Body Fat Mass for men is 10 – 20 % of the weight and 18 – 28 % of the weight for women. In the case of children under the age of 18, children’s
11 standard is used. Note * You may also check your weight, body fat mass, muscle mass, and BMI data when you transfer the InBody test results to the InBody app. 3. Heart Rate 1) Test Information Caution * Please use the heart rate measurement function for measuring the human heart rate only. You may get unexpected heart rate measurement results depending on the environment. Under such cases, the heart rate measurement results are not valid. * Always take your heart rate measurement in a stable state. * The time taken to measure your heart rate may vary according to the environment and the measuring conditions. * The heart rate measurement results may not be accurate at cold temperatures. Warm up your body before taking the measurement. * The measurement results may not be accurate if you move your body during measurement. * If your wrist is too thin, your measurement results may not be accurate because the arm electrodes are not touching your wrist adequately. * If the measurement is drastically different from your expectation, take a rest and take another measurement 30 minutes later. * For accuracy, repeat the measurement about 5 times and calculate the average. * Smoking or alcohol drinking may accelerate your heart rate, causing the measurement shown to be different from your usual values. * Your measurement may not be accurate if you talk, yawn or take a deep breath while taking ]. * Your measurement may not be accurate if your heart rate is too low or too high. * Your measurement may not be accurate if the electrodes are obstructed by any hair or foreign substance. * The measurement results may not be accurate if you attempt to measure the heart rate of an infant. * If the heart rate is not measured correctly, changing the position of the product on your wrist. * If there are any foreign substances on the hand or arm electrodes, remove the foreign substances completely before use. Note * The heart rate measurement function may not be used for treatment or medical diagnosis purposes. * The heart rate measurement function must be used in a stable state with minimal movement. 2) Test Instruction For accurate heart rate measurement, take a rest for 5 minutes. ❶ Maintain proper posture to take the test. ❷ The Heart Rate Measurement will begin. ❸ When the test is completed, the results will be shown on screen. Results: Heart Rate Note
12 * The heart rate measurement function may not be used while the product is charging. 3) Test Posture The examinee must maintain proper posture to have accurate test results. * The test will proceed when there is good electrical contact. 4) Measurement Data Heart Rate : This is the number of heart beats per minute. The heart rate of a healthy individual is about 70 per minute, but 50 to 100 is taken as a standard range to allow for the wide variation from one person to another. 4.
