washing machine will cause air leakage. Also, be careful not to get water into the air hose.

• The blood pressure varies constantly throughout the day. Measurement should be made regularly at the same time each day.

• Do NOT be impressed by the results of one measurement. Keep a record of blood pressure variations. Many readings tell a story.

• Emotional stress may tend to cause pressure to rise.

For proper measurement of blood pressure

• Take a deep breath five or six time and then relax before measuring blood pressure. If you are tense when taking the measurement, you will not get a valid reading.

PRECAUTION FOR USE AND MAINTENANCE

about 20°C. Do NOT measure blood pressure when it is too cold (below 10°C) or too hot (above 40°C) in the room.

• Do NOT measure blood pressure immediately after drinking coffee or tea or smoking.

• Measurement of blood pressure may not be possible for someone with a weak pulse or arrhythmia.

• Congestion, swelling, etc. may occur in some people.

• If blood pressure is measured repeatedly, an accurate result will not be achieved. An interval of about 10 minutes should be allowed.

• The memory is erased if the batteries are removed for replacement, etc. and a record should be kept of any necessary data.

Precautions for maintenance

• Do NOT store the blood pressure monitor where it will be exposed to direct sunlight, high temperature (over 60°C), low temperature (below –20°C), high relative humidity (over 95%) or in a dusty place.

• Do NOT expose the blood pressure monitor to under force or vibration, or drop it.

• Remove the battery/batteries when not in use for a long period.

• Do NOT disassemble the apparatus.
