Should I use the Body Smart if I wear a pacemaker?
No, you should not use the Body Smart if you wear a pacemaker or other internal medical device. The Body Smart circulates a small electrical signal in your body to perform some of its measurements (such as fat mass), which may interfere with a pacemaker or other medical device.
Note: If you already own the Body Smart and wish to keep it, you can use it as long as you disable the body fat measurements from the Dashboard. You can do so from the Withings App.
Should I use the Body Smart if I have a stent?
Stents will not affect the measurement and do not pose a risk to the use of the Body Smart BIA (Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis).
Should I use my scale while I am pregnant?
The Body Smart has not been tested and/or validated for usage during pregnancy. Due to its updated technology related to the usage of limited electric currents and for precautionary purposes, we recommend that you disable impedance-based measurement capability.You can do so from the Withings App.
Disabling impedance-based features from the Withings App:
- Open the Withings App.
- Tap Devices.
- Tap Body Smart.
- Deselect Fat mass measurement and heart rate measurement.
Note: When you deactivate the fat mass measurement, it is deactivated for all the users of all accounts that are linked to the scale.
