• If the battery symbol the batteries must be removed and recharged! They
must not remain inside the instrument, as they may become damaged
through total discharge even when switched off. The batteries must NOT be
discharged in the blood pressure monitor! If you do not intend to use the
instrument for a week or more, always remove the rechargeable batteries!

connection.

6.Care and Maintenance

Wash hands after each time measurement.
If one device is used by different patients, wash hands before and after
each use.
a) Do not expose the device to either extreme temperatures, humidity, dust
or direct sunlight.
b) The cuff contains a sensitive air-tight bubble. Handle this cuff carefully
and avoid all types of stress through twisting or buckling.
c) Clean the device with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use gas, thinners or similar
solvents. Spots on the cuff can be removed carefully with a damp cloth and
soapsuds. The cuff with bladder must not be washed in a dishwasher,
clothes washer, or submerged in water.

and keep it away from sharp edges.
