needed
• Storage outside of stated storage temperature may result in measurement error or
device malfunction; storage environment temperature is: -4°F – 131°F (-20°c –
55°c); humidity: ≤90% Rh
• Avoid high temperatures and direct sunlight
• Always keep the unit unplugged while not in use; remove the batteries if the unit will
not be used for an extended period of time
• Do not attempt to disassemble your monitor; disassembling your monitor may void
the manufacturers warranty
• Do not subject the monitor to strong shocks; take care not to drop the monitor
Cuff Care and Maintenance
• The cuff should not be submerged or washed in a washing machine, but may be spot
cleaned with a mild-detergent as needed
• To disinfect the cuff, wipe the inside (skin contact side) of the cuff using a soft cloth
slightly moistened with 75-90% ethyl rubbing alcohol and allow to air dry; it is
suggested to disinfect the cuff frequently when used in clinical settings or if the cuff is
contaminated in any way
• never attempt to iron or dry the cuff; if the cuff becomes wet, allow the cuff to air dry
completely before use or storage
• Do not attempt to remove the tube and bladder from the nylon cuff as this may
damage the cuff
