1. Getting to know your instrument

The upper arm blood pressure monitor is used for non-inva-
sive measurement and monitoring of adults' arterial blood
pressure.
You can use it to measure your blood pressure quickly and
easily, storing the results and displaying the progression of
readings together with the average.
2. Important information
Advice on use
• Always measure your blood pressure at the same time of
day, in order to ensure that values are comparable.
• Relax for approx. 5 minutes before each measurement.
• You should wait five minutes before measuring a second
time.
ENGLISH
• The readings that you take may only be used for information
purposes – they are not a substitute for a medical examina-
tion! Discuss your results with the doctor. Never use them to
make medical decisions independently (e.g. regarding medi-
cation and dosage thereof).
• There may be incorrect measurements where there is car-
diocirculatory disease, as well as with very low blood pres-
sure, circulatory disorders, dysrhythmia and other preexist-
ing diseases.
• Only use the instrument on persons whose upper arm has
the right circumference for the instrument.
• You can operate the blood pressure monitor with both bat-
teries and mains part. Note that it is only possible to save
data when your blood pressure monitor is receiving power.
As soon as the batteries wear out or you disconnect the
mains part from the mains, the blood-pressure instrument
loses the date and time. Any measurement results that have
been stored are however retained.
• The automatic switch-off function switches off the blood
pressure monitor in order to preserve the batteries, if no
button is pressed within one minute.
Storage and Care
• The blood pressure monitor is made up of precision elec-
tronic components. Accuracy of readings and the instru-
ment's service life depend on careful handling.
