What you should know about blood pressure

Blood pressure constantly changes throughout the day. It rises sharply in the early
morning and declines during the late morning. Blood pressure rises again in the
afternoon and finally drops to a low level at night. Also, it may vary in a short
period of time. Therefore, readings from successive measurements can fluctuate.

Blood pressure readings from a healthy 31-year old male, measured at 5-minute
intervals.

Blood pressure measured in a doctor’s office only provides a momentary value.
Repeated measurements at home better reflect one's actual blood pressure
values under everyday conditions.

Moreover, many people have a different blood pressure when they measure at
home, because they tend to be more relaxed than when in the doctor's office.
Regular blood pressure measurements taken at home can provide your doctor
with valuable information on your normal blood pressure values under actual
«everyday» conditions.

The World Health Organisation (WHO) has set up the following standard blood
pressure values when measured at resting pulse.

What you should know about this blood
pressure monitor

For accurate measurements, all wrist blood pressure
monitors must be positioned at heart level. Example:
If the monitor is positioned 20 cm below heart level as
shown on the left (e.g. by putting the arm on a table), the

20 cm

reading you will obtain is approximately 15 mmHg too
high.

Therefore, the Braun SensorControl has an active
positioning system (A): it guides you to hold your
measuring arm in the right position at heart level.

Additionally, your blood pressure monitor features an
EasyClick cuff which automatically fastens correctly to
your wrist to ensure an accurate fit for an accurate
reading.

• To ensure accurate measuring results, carefully

read the complete use instructions.

• This product is intended for household use only.
Keep product and batteries away from children.

• People suffering from cardiac arrhythmia, vascular
constriction, arteriosclerosis, diabetes or users of
cardiac pacemakers should consult their doctor
before measuring their blood pressure themselves,
since deviations in blood pressure values may occur in
such cases.

• Please consult your doctor in case of any doubt,
especially if you are under medical treatment or
receiving medication.

• The use of this blood pressure monitor is not intended
as a substitute for consultation with your doctor.

Inserting batteries

• Use alkaline batteries, type LR 03 (AAA) (e.g. Duracell)
as supplied with this product (or rechargeable
batteries).

• Remove the battery compartment cover and insert

LR 03

two batteries with correct polarity (see symbol in the

• New batteries (Duracell) will provide approximately
300 measurements.

• Only discard empty batteries. They should not be
disposed of in the household waste, but at appropriate
collection sites or at your dealer.

Key rules for accurate blood pressure measurements

Correct handling is key for obtaining accurate measuring results!

• Always take readings at the same time of day, ideally in the morning, under the
same conditions.

• Do not measure within 30 minutes after smoking, coffee or tea consumption.

• Take off wristwatch and jewelry before fitting the appliance on the measuring
arm.

• Position the monitor 2 cm

• While taking a measurement, sit down, relax, keep still, especially the hand and
fingers of the measuring arm, do not move or speak.

• Hold the appliance at heart level during the measurement.

• Wait approximately 3 minutes before repeating a measurement.

Measuring

For a reliable blood pressure measurement, please follow
the instructions below.

To open the cuff, press the release button (F) underneath
the cuff closure.

click!

1. Place the monitor housing on the slim side of your bare
forearm with the monitor facing up. The distance aid
(H) helps you to keep the required 2 cm

distance to

your palm line.

2. To close the cuff, hold the appliance against your
body. Then take hold of the cuff closure, pull out
the cuff and insert the cuff closure in the monitor
housing until it locks into place. The cuff will adjust
automatically to length needed for your wrist. Once
cuff is closed, do not move the appliance anymore.
If you want to change the monitor position on your
arm, open and close the cuff once again.

3. Press the red on/off button (B).

4. Put the hand with the appliance on the other upper
arm as shown. Slowly move the hand upward along
the upper arm. Watch the positioning system (A) and
move your hand up or down according to the direction
of the arrow shown.

5. The positioning system (A) shown on the left and
a beep confirm that you have reached the right
measuring position. The measurement will start
automatically. When the measurement is complete, a
beep will sound again, and the reading is displayed:

Upper (systolic) value
Lower (diastolic) value
Pulse

Please note:

• In case of system errors or handling mistakes, the
display will show an error code, instead of giving
you inaccurate results (for details, please see
section «What to do if…»).

• 15 seconds after switching on the appliance, the
measuring process will start automatically, even if the
appropriate measuring position has not been reached.

Turning off

Press the on/off button to turn the product off. Otherwise
the product will turn off automatically after 2 minutes.

Memory mode

Your blood pressure monitor can store the readings of
50 measurements. Storing is done automatically after each
completed measurement. The memory is non-volatile. This
means that you will not loose stored data when changing
batteries. The memory cannot be cleared. Once the
memory is full, the oldest values will be overwritten.

Recalling stored readings

To recall stored readings, first turn the product off,
then press the memory button (D). A single push (m
will recall the latest reading. The lower display line
successively shows memory index and pulse on the one
hand and date and time of the respective measurement
on the other hand.

Repeatedly pressing the memory button (D) will call up
one by one all stored readings:

m (–) towards older readings
n (+) towards younger readings

Scrolling
Keep one side of the memory button pressed for
scrolling through the memory.

Press the on/off button (B) to exit the memory mode.

Setting date and time

First turn off the appliance. Push the select button (C) for
longer than 3 seconds to enter the select mode. Wait for
a confirmation beep. The day position of the displayed
date starts flashing. Using the memory button (D), you
can adjust the date. Press the select button again to
make the month position flash, adjust it using the
memory button. Press the select button again and
proceed the same way to adjust the time (hour/minute).

After having changed date and time, press the on/off
button (B) to confirm. The device will then turn off.

Deactivating the positioning system

Should you wish to deactivate the positioning system
(e.g. because you want to measure while lying down),
proceed as follows:
Turn off the product. Push the select button (C) for longer
than 3 seconds and wait for the confirmation beep.
The display shows the date and time settings. Then
repeatedly press the select button until the positioning
system symbol ( ) will be displayed next to a flashing
«ON».

Press one side of the memory button to change the
setting from
«ON» (positioning system activated) to
«OFF» (positioning system deactivated).

To confirm
