FAQ Items

If the grip strength meter is displaying pounds instead of kilograms, you can switch the unit as follows:

Turn on the power of the grip strength meter.
Squeeze the handle with half of your strength while, at the same time, briefly pressing the device’s power button (for about 1-2 seconds).
This action will change the measurement unit from pounds to kilograms.
