3. 1 Do not exercise or perform any physical activities before testing If a examinee has already been physically active a temporary change in body composition will result 2 Do not eat before measurement If an examinee already ate wait 2 hours for digestion 3 Do not take a bath or shower prior to measurement Perspiring Sweating that occurs also results in a temporary change in body composition 4 Perform the measurement under normal temperature conditions 68 77 F 20 25 C If the ambient temperature is too high or too low the human body responds resulting in temporary changes in body composition 5 Perform the measurement after urination or excretion if possible Residues inside the human body are interpreted as fat mass Waste in the body means the analysis will be less accurate 6 Measurement should ideally be done before mid day In the afternoon after being mobile all day more body water will accumulate in the lower body yielding an unequal distribution 18 2 Exterior and Functions of Keypad The InBody230 has a keypad for data input To input all information press the relevant buttons on the keypad Keypad is located below the display screen It can be distinguished into 2 categories by their functions me cee Y m Ty a i F a Sa F A Input Button a Oo o 1 Numerical Buttons 0 9 Alphabet Buttons A Z The input buttons are used to enter alpha nume
