arrow direction.
Extract the batteries and dispose them as special waste at the specific collection points forecast
for recycling. For more information about the disposal of run down batteries, please contact either

waste disposal local service.
Caution: For greater safety, children younger than 12 years should not remove the
batteries.

APPLYING THE WRIST CUFF

These instructions must be followed in order to take measurements on either your right or left wrist.
We recommend measuring on the left wrist, but always use the same one even if
the right is used.
1) With the palm of your hand facing up, apply the instrument so that the edge of the cuff is approx.
1-2 cm from your palm.
2) Apply the wrist cuff around your bare wrist and fasten it in place with the Velcro fastening.
3) The wrist cuff must be snug around your wrist, but not too tight.

PERFORMING A MEASUREMENT

1) After having positioned the device on the right or left wrist, press the key O/I. When the device
is ON, the key O/I lights.
The device emits a long acoustic signal and on the display, only for few seconds, all function
symbols do light.
2) Should any previous measurements have been stored, the display shows the last measurement
stored and after some seconds, it shows "0".
At this point, the device is ready for the measurement. If there are no measurements stored, the
display shows "0" immediately.
3) The wristband starts inflating automatically.
4) On the display, the following values appear: systolic, diastolic, pulse, date and time of the
measurement, as well as the symbol
Try to remain relaxed, without speaking and without moving.
The segments appearing on the left of the display show the classification of the blood pressure
