any medical decisions on them (e.g. medicines and their
administration)!
• Do not use the blood pressure monitor on newborns, preg-
nant women or patients with preeclampsia.
• Cardiovascular diseases may lead to incorrect measure-
ments or have a detrimental effect on measurement accu-
racy. The same also applies to very low blood pressure, dia-
betes, circulatory disorders and arrhythmias as well as chills
or shaking.
• This device is not intended for use by people (including
children) with restricted physical, sensory or mental skills or
a lack of experience and/or a lack of knowledge, unless they
are supervised by a person who has responsibility for their
safety or they receive instructions from this person on how
to use the device. Supervise children around the device to
ensure they do not play with it.
• Using the blood pressure monitor outside your home envi-
ronment or whilst on the move (e.g. whilst travelling in a
car, ambulance or helicopter, or whilst undertaking physical
activity such as playing sport) can influence the measure-
ment accuracy and cause incorrect measurements.
• The blood pressure monitor must not be used in connection
with a high-frequency surgical unit.
• Only use the device on people who have the specified upper
arm measurement for the device.
• Please note that when inflating, the functions of the limb in
question may be impaired.
• During the blood pressure measurement, blood circulation
must not be stopped for an unnecessarily long time. If the
device malfunctions, remove the cuff from the arm.
• Avoid any mechanical restriction, compression or bending of
the cuff line.
• Do not allow sustained pressure in the cuff or frequent meas-
urements. The resulting restriction of the blood flow may
cause injury.
• Ensure that the cuff is not placed on an arm in which the
arteries or veins are undergoing medical treatment, e.g. intra-
vascular access or therapy, or an arteriovenous (AV) shunt.
• Do not use the cuff on people who have undergone a mas-
tectomy.
• Do not place the cuff over wounds as this may cause further
injury.
• The blood pressure monitor can be operated with batter-
ies. Please note that data transfer and data storage is only
possible when your blood pressure monitor is supplied with
power. As soon as the batteries are empty, the blood pres-
sure monitor loses the date and time.
• To conserve the batteries, the monitor switches off automati-
cally if no buttons are pressed for one minute.
• The device is only intended for the purpose described in
these instructions for use. The manufacturer is not liable for
damage resulting from improper or careless use.

• 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.
