QARDIOBASE SMART SCALE: START YOUR DAY WITH A SMILE Step up to a happier, healthier you. QardioBase is the wireless smart scale and body analyzer that combines intelligent features, ease of use, and sleek design to make weight and health management an integral part of your everyday life. QardioBase gives you a broader view of your fitness and wellness.
INTENDED USE implanted electronic medical devices, such as pacemakers or defibrillators. See “Activating Special Modes” for important information on “Weight Only Mode.” Please refer to the instructions of the manufacturer of your implanted medical device for further information. QardioBase is a body analyzer that measures body weight and uses BIA (bioelectrical impedance analysis) technology to estimate the body fat percentage and body composition of an individual. It is intended for home use only.
REQUIREMENTS Do not use this unit on slippery surfaces such as wet floors. Requires iOS 10.0 or later, Android 5.0 or later, Kindle Fire. Requires iOS or Android device with Bluetooth and Qardio account creation with acceptance of terms and conditions for initial setup. Do not use when wet or with wet feet. The surface of the scale is slippery when wet. Do not use the QardioBase smart scale and body analyzer for any purpose other than measuring weight and body composition.
USING QARDIOBASE FOR THE FIRST TIME Switch on your QardioBase Alternatively, go on the iTunes App Store or Google Play. Open the rubber flap on the right hand side of your QardioBase. Move the switch from right to left to turn QardioBase on. You only need to switch on QardioBase the first time you activate your scale. ON/OFF 2. Open the Qardio App on your phone or tablet. If requested, you should enable Bluetooth on your device. You can enable Bluetooth in the Settings menu on your smartphone or tablet.
IMPORTANT: QardioBase is safe for use by individuals that are 10 years old or older. People fitted with an implantable medical device should only use QardioBase in “Weight Only Mode”, which disables the body composition analysis. Do not use this product before first activating the “Weight Only Mode”, if you have implanted electronic medical devices, such as pacemakers or defibrillators. See “Activating Special Modes” for important information on “Weight Only Mode.
HOW TO TURN QARDIOBASE ON/OFF 7. After setup is complete, you can step on QardioBase to perform a weight measurement. By default, weight will display first, followed by % body fat. If you have shoes on, or if you have “Weight Only Mode” or “Pregnancy Mode” on, QardioBase will only display your weight. The Qardio App will show detailed body composition data, including weight, % body fat, % muscle mass, % water, % bone mass and BMI. To turn on QardioBase step on it, or tap it with your foot.
ACTIVATING SPECIAL MODES You select the mode of measurement upon configuration. Alternatively, you can go into the Settings section of the Qardio App and scroll down to QardioBase, select “Mode setup.” Normal Mode “Normal Mode” will perform body weight measurement and body composition analysis. In this mode QardioBase will display weight first by default, followed by % body fat. If you have shoes on, QardioBase will only display your weight.
ATTENTION: QardioBase is safe for use by individuals that are 10 years old or older. People fitted with an implantable medical device must only use QardioBase in “Weight Only Mode”, which disables the body composition analysis. Do not use this product before first activating the “Weight Only Mode”, if you have implanted electronic medical devices, such as pacemakers or defibrillators. See the section on “Weight Only Mode” for more information.
Weight Only Mode If you have an implantable device such as a pacemaker or defibrillator, you should always check that you have “Weight Only Mode” properly enabled by tapping the scale with your foot before stepping on. When the weight only mode icon displays you will know it is now safe to step on the scale to take your measurement. “Weight Only Mode” will perform a body weight measurement without body composition analysis.
DETAILED INSTRUCTIONS FOR CORRECT AND RELIABLE MEASUREMENTS If you have set up Wi-Fi you don’t need your phone/ tablet to record your measurement. Step on QardioBase with the metal circle on the same side as your heels and your feet well apart for a correct body composition measurement.
If you have set your weight target and have “Smart Feedback Mode” enabled, QardioBase will display facial expressions indicating your progression of your weight and body composition data towards your target. Please see “Activating Special Modes” for more details. It is important to stand still while on the platform of the scale. If QardioBase detects too much movement, after five seconds of attempting to take your measurement, you will be prompted with the “Hold Still” icon.
USING QARDIOBASE WITH MULTIPLE USERS on the scale to indicate the profile the measurement is associated with. Tap the scale with your foot to select the correct name. Several users can connect their Qardio account with a single QardioBase. The association of one or more Qardio accounts to QardioBase is important to allow QardioBase to recognize all users in a household.
CHANGING WEIGHT MEASUREMENT UNIT AND OTHER SETTINGS Weight measurement units are automatically set based on the region setting of the smartphone or tablet QardioBase is first used with. To change them: 1. Tap the Q menu on the top left of the Qardio App screen and select Profile. 2. Scroll down to QardioBase settings. 3.
SETTING GOALS If you have a specific timeframe for your weight goal, you can also adjust the number of weeks in which you would like to reach your goal. QardioBase allows you to set goals so you can keep track of your progress in any mode that you are using. If you have “Smart Feedback Mode” enabled, the facial expressions displayed upon measurement will reflect your progress towards the goal that you have set. 6. Hit the “Save” button located in the top right corner to record your new goal. 7.
RE-ASSIGNING A MEASUREMENT You can follow these steps to re-assign measurements: 1. Tap the Q menu on the top left of the Qardio App screen and select QardioBase. QardioBase can store in its memory the measurements of several pre-defined users. This information is used to identify and attribute new measurements taken to the respective user automatically: 2. Select HISTORY to view your measurement history. 3. Select the flag icon in the center at the top of the screen to enter CLAIM.
CHECKLIST FOR AN ACCURATE AND RELIABLE MEASUREMENT ✓ Place QardioBase on a flat, hard surface. Although QardioBase is suitable for use on most surfaces, soft, uneven flooring can cause the scale to give less reliable measurements of your weight. ✓ Step onto the scale with your feet parallel and weight equally distributed. Do not worry if your feet appear too large for the unit, as accurate measurements can still be obtained if your toes extend outside the platform.
• After intense sport activity. • After heavy meals. • When dehydrated. ✓ Ensure accurate data are included in your profile (height, age, biological sex) in the Qardio App. Inaccurate information affects the reliability of the body composition and BMI measurements. ✓ ✓ QardioBase is safe to use by individuals that are 10 years old or older. People fitted with an implantable medical device should only use QardioBase in “Weight Only Mode”, which disables the body composition analysis.
BODY COMPOSITION MEASUREMENT People fitted with an implantable medical device should only use QardioBase in “Weight Only Mode” which disables body composition analysis. If you have implanted electronic medical devices such as pacemakers or defibrillators, do not use QardioBase before activating “Weight Only Mode.” Please refer to the instructions from the manufacturer of your medical device for more information. It is recommended that pregnant women use QardioBase in “Pregnancy Mode” or “Weight Only Mode.
CHANGING YOUR WI-FI NETWORK To connect QardioBase to your Wi-Fi network you will need to know the following information: If you have a new Wi-Fi name or password, you will need to reconnect your QardioBase to the new network. You can follow these steps to change your Wi-Fi configuration: 1.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE CHARGING QARDIOBASE • Avoid high temperatures and direct sunlight. Do not immerse in water or expose to excessive dust, as this will damage the scale. • Wipe down the surface with a soft damp cloth.
