Dear Patient:
You have received a device with the additional Home Monitoring function by BIOTRONIK.
How Home Monitoring works
Your device (1) is equipped with a special transmitter. It sends information on your heart to the transmitter, your CardioMessenger (2), usually at night.
The transmission power from your device is low and does not impair your health in any way. Its limited transmission range, however, requires the use of the Cardi­oMessenger.
The CardioMessenger collects the information and transmits it to the BIOTRONIK Service Center (4) as encoded messages via a mobile connection (3).
Here, the messages are decoded and can be viewed by your physician (5) on a protected web site.
Based on the information received, your physician can decide if your device is opti­mally programmed or if the therapy needs adjustments. In this way, Home Moni­toring serves as a practical diagnostic aid for your physician.

Check the completeness of the delivery
Your CardioMessenger is supplied ready for use, and you can operate it immediately by inserting the power plug into the wall outlet.
However, prior to usage, check the CardioMessenger for any visible damage and use only an undamaged CardioMessenger.
Return a damaged CardioMessenger to your physician.
Use only the provided original power supply brick (see the technical data).
Other equipment may impair proper functioning of the CardioMessenger and increase the emitted interference or decrease the CardioMessenger's resistance to interference.
The delivery includes the following:
The CardioMessenger Smart
The power supply brick with power cord and power plug

6 First Steps
Where Do I Put the CardioMessenger?
Your CardioMessenger has a battery so you can take it along as needed during the day.
However, it should be placed close to your bed at night for the nightly data transfer from the device to the CardioMessenger.
The bedside table is therefore the best location for your CardioMessenger, as it usually meets the following conditions:
• The CardioMessenger is placed on a solid base and cannot fall.
• The distance to the device is less than 2 m (6 feet), so that regular data trans­mission from the device to the CardioMessenger at night is assured.
• On the bedside table, the icons on the CardioMessenger's display can be read well so you can verify on a daily basis that it is ready for service.
However, if the bedside table is made of metal, you should not place the CardioMessenger directly on the table. For example, place a stack of books to establish a distance of approx. 5 cm between the two so that the metal does not interfere with the device's data reception.
Please take the following also into consideration:
• Do not place the CardioMessenger next to a television set, microwave oven, or a similar source of electromagnetic interference.
You may hear noises typical of cellular phones if you place the CardioMessenger too close to a radio alarm or a television set, for example.
• Do not expose the CardioMessenger to temperatures exceeding 40°C (104°F). Do not put it in places where it is subjected to direct sunlight and do not put it directly under a halogen spotlight.
• Do not expose the CardioMessenger to temperatures below 0 C (32 F).
• Protect the CardioMessenger against water and high humidity.
Do not place it in the bathroom.
