• Renpho smart scales should not be used for treating or diagnosing any medical conditions. Always consult your physician or health professional to determine what is suited for you.
• Who should pay special attention when using this product?
Pregnant Women: As the body makes preparations for gestation, it becomes a challenge to gather accurate values for metrics such as fat percentage. During this time, it is suggested that only weight is measured.
Professional bodybuilders: The target for this product is the general population. Bodybuilders incur special body muscle and fat percentages, so this product may not match measurements as made with specialized instruments or medical equipment. We recommend such users to pay attention to a long-term change in data, rather than measurement values in themselves.
Children and adolescents under the age of 18: Individuals under 18 take in relatively more nutrition and develop relatively fast. Currently, there is no standard evaluation system for body data for individuals under 18.
STEP 1：
Before first use: Install battery:

Pairing the Renpho scale with your smartphone. (except ES-WBE28WUS and ES-BR001)
A. Step on the scale, the device will popped up on the App like this, tap "Pair" to connect:
B. Step onto the scale with bare and dry feet on the scale's conductive area.
C. Keep standing on the scale for 5-10 seconds. Pairing is successful when your metrics appear on the Renpho Health App.
Congratulations! You have successfully completed the first measurement, now you can check the metrics in the app.
1. Click “Healthy" from the menu bar and click 'Edit card' to add your weight or other metrics on the Healthy Page.
2. Drag the row to adjust the card order, if you want to change it.
3. Then, revisit the Healthy page and click on 'Weight' to measure your weight.
4. Once measurement is complete, return to the health page and your weight will be displayed.
1. Go to Device icon from the menu bar and click on the body fat scale you've paired with.
2. Step on the scale and finish measurement.
3. Go to healthy page, click the card again.
1. Go to device page and click on the body fat scale you've paired with.
2. Go to the measure page.
A. Go to the Device page and click on the body fat scale you've paired with to enter the weighing page.
B. Click on "History" icon in the lower middle part of your screen.
C. Tap the upper right corner to delete.
1. Place the scale on a hard and flat surface. Softer floors such as carpet can cause inaccuracies.
2. Step on the scale with one foot until the LED screen lights up. Then step off and wait for the LED screen to display “CAL”. When "0.00" is displayed, the scale is calibrated. Take off your shoes and socks and make sure both feet are on the electrode plates on either side.
3. During the measurement, try to keep your weight centered directly above and over the scale as much as possible.
4. Keep standing on the scale for about 10 seconds. Even if your weight is displayed, the scale may still be measuring your other body metrics; do NOT step off the scale while the scale is still measuring. After about 10 seconds, the display will go blank and a sound will indicate completion of the measuring process. You should then be able to view your body metrics in the app. (Sound settings can be changed in the Settings menu).
If you think you're getting inaccurate results, it may be caused by the following factors:
- A type of internal error. Try resetting the scale by taking one battery out for 5 seconds and putting it back in. If you are using a rechargeable scale, try pressing the reset button on the back of the scale for 5 seconds.
- An unbalanced floor could also cause inaccurate results. Always try using the scale on a flat surface. Putting it on a soft surface such as carpet can also cause inaccuracies.
- Check the legs/pads of the scale for any obstruction that may cause an imbalance.
Additional tips
1. Avoid moving the scale. Moving the scale frequently increases the risk of inaccuracy.
2. Everyone's weight fluctuates throughout a typical day. Muscle usage and basic consumption of food and water will cause some weight fluctuation. Thus, if you weigh yourself multiple times during the day, you will see some differences. To minimize the fluctuations, weigh yourself the same time each day (such as the morning).
3. Accuracy Range:
110lbs: ± 0.66lb
220lbs: ± 0.88lb
330lbs: ± 1.1lbs
You can test the scale's accuracy by placing a 5 or 10 pound dumbbell on the scale and viewing the measurement. First calibrate the scale: step on the scale with one foot until the LED screen lights up. Then step off and wait for the LED screen to display “CAL”. When "0.00" is displayed, the scale is calibrated and then you can place the dumbbell on the scale.

Yes, the scale can be used in 2 ways:
1. You can have the scale synced with your phone. The measurements are uploaded to the Renpho mobile app immediately.
2. You can use the scale without your phone. The scale can store 20 measurements;
To sync the data which you did not use with the App:
A. Please open the Renpho Health App, make sure the Bluetooth is turned on, step onto the scale.
B. After a new measurement syncing to the App successfully, your offline data will be popped up, and you can assign the data to the correct user.
Notes:
- Please wait for the scale to auto-shutoff (about 10 seconds) to store the measurements if you are using the storage function.
- If you want to replace the battery or restart the scale, please sync the stored data to the app beforehand otherwise the data will be lost.
- The scale can store up to 20 measurements.
- If multiple people use the scale without it being connected to a phone, it is recommended that all users be under the same account. If all users created their own individual account and everyone used the same scale without connecting it to their phones, the scale would store all the measurements offline as expected. But once the next account holder syncs with the scale, that account will have all the measurements stored in the scale assigned to them, regardless of who the measurement data belongs to. That’s why it’s better for multiple users to be under the same account if they plan to use the scale offline. In this case, the measurement data may be automatically assigned. Or if the data is not recognized, a window will pop up asking you which user to assign the measurement data to.

Body composition analysis is an inexact science, regardless of the manufacturer or method of measurement. Because your scale combines the measurements it takes with variables stored in your user profile according to our algorithm, the numbers you see may vary from those you see using other measurement methods – which is completely normal. When you're measuring body composition, it's more important to pay attention to overall trends than the absolute value of a single measurement. (Tracking in the Renpho Health app helps with that.)
For the purposes of Athlete Mode for the Renpho Bluetooth Smart Scales, an athlete is defined as someone who consistently works out for approximately 3 times a week for 2 hours. This may also apply to people, who previously worked out frequently for a long period of time but less now. This mode is also suitable for people involved in endurance sports, such as running and cycling.
If you are still wondering whether or not you should use Athlete Mode, don't worry too much about it. There is not an exact moment where you are - or are not - an athlete. Some people will get a slight underestimation on athlete mode and a slight overestimation on standard adult mode, falling into a gray area. In which case, the most important factor to look for in the Renpho Bluetooth Smart Scales is when you are given consistent readings over a period of time. Sticking with the same assessment system will likely yield a better overall picture of a person's health status. Relative changes in value are more meaningful than the absolute value of a single measurement.
It was found that body fat estimation using bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) can overestimate the body fat percentage of adult athletes. The physiological variations of athletes are said to account for the difference in body composition compared to the average person with a moderately active lifestyle. Such variations include higher bone density and hydration levels in athletes. Therefore, to get the most accurate measurement results, adult athletes should turn on Athlete Mode in the Renpho Health app.
The Renpho scale has an incremental measurement accuracy range that is based on how much you weigh:
50kgs: ± 0.3kg
100kgs ± 0.4kg
150kgs ± 0.5kg
110lbs: ± 0.66lb
220lbs ± 0.88lb
330lbs ± 1.1lbs
For example, if you weigh 220lbs, the scale is accurate to within 0.88lbs.
Please don’t use the scale if you weigh more than 396 lbs.
Like most household body fat scales, the Renpho Smart Body Composition Scales use the Bio-electrical Impedance Analysis or Bioimpedance Analysis (BIA) Method to assess body compositions. Measuring body fat in relation to lean body mass is an integral part of a health and nutrition evaluations.
This non-invasive test simply involves your feet touching four electrodes on the scale. A low level, imperceptible electrical current is sent through the body. The flow of the current is affected by the amount of water in the body. The device measures how this signal is impeded through different types of tissue. Tissues that contain large amounts of fluid and electrolytes, such as blood, have high conductivity, but fat and bone slow the signal down. As BIA determines the resistance to flow of the current as it passes through the body, it provides estimates of body water from which body fat is calculated using selected algorithms.
This is why the measurements need to be done barefoot, with both the user's feet on the scale touching the metal pads.
You can check the Measurement Report: Tap "See details" next to the Date to view the Measurement Report
It is recommended to keep the test at the same time and under the same conditions every day. In order to ensure the most realistic data, you can measure on an empty stomach after waking up in the morning, or at the same time. The body weight changes every day, and the body's metabolism, drinking, bathing, exercising, eating and other behaviors will affect the test.
