☞ Further information
Measurements should not occur soon after each other, since otherwise, the results will be falsi-
fied. Wait therefore for several minutes in a relaxed position, sitting or lying, before you repeat
a measurement.
6. Error messages/malfunctions
If an error occurs during a measurement, the
measurement is discontinued and a corresponding error
code is displayed (Example: Error No. 2).
Error No. Possible cause(s)
ERR 1
No pulse has been detected.
ERR 2
Unnatural pressure impulses influence the measurement result. Reason: The arm
was moved during the measurement (Artefact).
ERR 3
The inflation of the cuff takes too long. The cuff is not correctly seated.
ERR 5
The measured results have indicated an unacceptable difference between the sys-
tolic and diastolic pressure. Take another measurement, carefully following the
instructions. Contact your doctor, if you still obtain unusual results.
HI
The pressure in the cuff is too high (over 300 mmHg) OR the pulse is too high (over
200 beats per minute). Relax for 5 minutes and repeat the measurement.*
LO
The pulse is too low (less than 40 beats per minute). Repeat the measurement.*
* Please consult your doctor, if this or any other problem occurs repeatedly
