• Avoid any mechanical restriction, compression or bending
of the cuff line.
• Do not allow sustained pressure in the cuff or frequent
measurements. The resulting restriction of the blood flow
may cause injury.
• Make sure that the cuff is not placed on an arm in which
the arteries or veins are undergoing medical treatment,
e.g. intravascular access or intravascular or therapy, or an
arteriovenous (AV) shunt.
• Do not use the cuff on people who have undergone a
mastectomy.
• Do not place the cuff over wounds as this may cause fur-
ther injury.
• Place the cuff on your upper arm only. Do not place the
cuff on other parts of the body.
• You can either use the blood pressure monitor with bat-
teries or with a mains adapter. For mains operation, the
device must be set up so that it can be disconnected by
the user at any time. As soon as the batteries are empty
or the mains adapter is disconnected from the power
supply, the blood pressure monitor loses the date and
time.
• To conserve the batteries, the blood pressure monitor
switches off automatically if you do not press any buttons
for 30 seconds.
• 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.
Instructions for storage and maintenance
• The blood pressure monitor is made from precision and
electronic components. The accuracy of the measured
values and service life of the device depend on its careful
handling:
– Protect the device from impacts, humidity, dirt, marked
temperature fluctuations and direct sunlight.
– Do not drop the device.
– Do not use the device in the vicinity of strong electro-
magnetic fields and keep it away from radio systems or
mobile telephones.
– Only use the cuff included with the delivery or original
replacement parts. Otherwise incorrect measured values
will be recorded.
• We recommend that the batteries be removed if the de-
vice will not be used for a prolonged period of time.
Notes on handling batteries
• If your skin or eyes come into contact with battery fluid,
rinse the affected areas with water and seek medical
assistance.
