Important!
• Existence of high intensive light sources, such as
fluorescence light, ruby lamp, infrared heater or
strong sunshine, etc. may cause inaccurate
measurement. Please put an opaque cover on the
sensor or change the patient’s location.
• If the first reading shows unstable waveform, the
measurement may be false. In order to obtain a
more accurate measurement, simply wait for the
waveform to stabilize or remove the sensor and
take a second reading.
