3. Important information for your health and safety:
The information contained in this handbook and that obtained from measurements with the appliance should not encourage you to make any forms of diagnosis, to treat health problems or to make any decisions about medications.
• The measurements taken by yourself can only
be used for your information - they cannot be a substitute for examination by a doctor!
• Blood pressure is heavily influenced by time of day,
physical exertion and other factors. Do not rely on
individual measurements. Diseases of the cardio-vascular system can result in erroneous measurements, as can very low blood pressure, circulatory disorder, arrhythmia, and other pre-existing conditions (for example, diabetes mellitus).
• Especially in such cases you should not rely on the
measurement values determined by yourself!
• Under no circumstances should you abstain from
having your blood pressure measured by a doctor in
cases of known ailment, although the values shown
by this appliance are without defect!

This blood pressure meter contains precision compo­nents and electronics. Measurement accuracy and the usable life of the appliance both depend on careful handling:
You must ...
- protect the appliance from knocks and from being
dropped.
- use the appliance only in normal interior ambient
conditions; protect it from humidity, dirt, exposure to
excess heat or cold, and temperature fluctuations.
- keep it well away from electromagnetic fields such
as mobile telephones, sound amplification systems
or switched-on electrical appliances.
Do not inflate the pressure sleeve..
- if the appliance has not been fitted
- if the sleeve is twisted.
Important!
Do not press the button , unless the appli­ance has been fitted. Otherwise, inflation of the pressu­re sleeve might be set off inadvertently.

4. Insert / exchange batteries
Replace the batteries when the appliance functions become faint, at the latest after 1 year. In this way you will prevent discharged batteries from leaking into the appliance.
Open the battery compartment, as illustrated.
• Insert the batteries exactly as marked in the
battery compartment. Lay the strip underneath
the batteries. Battery type: 1.5 V size "AAA“.
Notice: Empty batteries must not be disposed of in the ordinary household garbage (poisonous heavy metals). Dispose of them at a collection point for old batteries or with your dealer.

After you have entered in the time and date, the first
programmable limit value for systolic blood pressure
blinks in the display. Press the button , to raise the value in
5 mmHg steps. The adjustment range for systolic
blood pressure lies between 70-250 mmHg. Press the button , to save this setting and
move to programming the diastolic limit values. Press the button , to raise the value in
5 mmHg steps. The adjusment range for diastolic
blood pressure lies between 40-245 mmHg. Press the button , to save the setting.
Repeat the last five instructions to enter the
value limits for further users (2 + 3). Press the button , to discontinue
the programming of limit values.
The programming of limit values into each of the
3 memory slots ("no. 1" to "no. 3") can also be
carried out at a later time.

7. Fitting the appliance
Use the appliance only on persons whose wrist 'fits' the pressure sleeve. The sleeve must be attached lightly and closed firmly with the Velcro fastener.
The sleeve is appropriate to a wrist perimeter of 135m-195mm.
If ...
- the wrist is too thin, it may not be possible to pump
up the pressure sleeve sufficiently, and in this case
an exact measurement is not possible.
- the wrist is too thick, it may not be possible to fasten
the pressure sleeve firmly enough and, in this case
also, it is not possible to obtain an exact
measurement.
Caution: Do not use the appliance if you have any injuries or lesions to the wrist. These could be aggrava­ted by pressure when the sleeve is pumped up.
A measurement of blood pressure can only be meaning­ful if the blood circulation has settled. You should take a seat and relax for 3 - 5 minutes before taking a measurement.
Page 11
11
Notice: Before taking the first measurement, remove
the protective foil from the display.
Place the appliance on the inside of the left wrist, as
illustrated. Close the Velcro fastener firmly - but only sufficiently
to ensure the sleeve is lying evenly.

8. Measuring blood pressure
It is important to avoid moving the appliance in any way while a measurement is being taken. The arm should be supported on a firm surface and held still. As far as possible, do not talk! Position the arm such that the appliance is at the
same level as the heart. This is roughly a hand's
breadth above the bottom of the rib cage.
Now press the button .Press the button , to programme the desired
memory block (no.1 to no.3). Press the button again. All elements in
the display appear shortly, then the desired memory
block.

The measurement process starts with the pumping up of the sleeve. To break off the measurement process press the
button again. During measurement, air is gradually released from the sleeve. If the measurement fails at this point, the appli­ance may pump some more air into the sleeve. If a measurement is taken successfully, the remaining air is released and the display shows ... the „systolic“ blood pressure at the top, in healthy
adults it lies between about 105-140 mmHg, the “diastolic” blood pressure in the middle, in
healthy adults it lies between about 60-90 mmHg, the pulse measurement at the bottom.
The m easured blood pressure as well as the program­med limit values are displayed alternatively. Should a limit value be exceeded (SYS or DIA) the appropriate value flashes in the display. Press the button
to change over to the Start display and possibly alter the programmed values. The appliance is equipped with an automatic switch-off. Should a button not be activated within one minute, the appliance switches itself off. Press the button
, to switch the appliance back on.

9. Saving measured values
The appliance has three memory blocks (numbered 1 to 3), each with 30 memory locations. It can therefore save up to 30 measurements for 3 persons, or up to 90 mea­surements for one person. Additionally, the average of the last three measurements can also be displayed.
a) How to save a measurement
First of all, select "your" memory block. For this,
repeatedly press the button until "your" memory block, „no.1“ to „no.3“, appears in the display.
When you now carry out the measurement process,
as detailed in chapters 5 & 8, the results are saved into the selected memory block.
