Before using WatchBP Ofce Target
Two ways of activating the Device
1) Pull out the protective strip projecting from the
battery compartment.
2) Plug the adapter cable into the main adapter
socket in the blood pressure monitor; then Plug
the adapter plug into the wall socket.
Selecting the correct cuff
Two different cuff sizes are provided with the
WatchBP Ofce Target: Medium and Large. Use the
cuff marker to select the cuff size that best matches
the circumference of the patient’s upper arm.
M (Medium size)
22 - 32 cm (8.7 - 12.6 inches)
L (Large size)
32-42 cm (12.6 - 16.5 inches)

Before using WatchBP Ofce Target (cont.)
Connect the cuff to the device
Connect the cuff to the device by inserting the cuff
connector into the cuff connector socket.

Fitting the cuff properly
1) Place the cuff over the left (right) upper arm so
that the air tube and artery mark arrow point
towards the lower arm.
2) Lay the cuff on the arm. Make sure that the lower
edge of the cuff lies approximately 2 to 3cm ( ¾
to 1 inch) above the elbow.
2-3 cm
(3/4 to 1 inch)
3) Wrap and tighten the cuff around the arm.
4) Leave a little free space between the arm of the
patient and the cuff. It must be possible to t 2
ngers between the arm and the cuff. Clothing
must not restrict the arm. Remove all clothing
covering or constricting the arm to be measured.
5) It may result in incorrect blood pressure readings
if the cuff does not t properly. Use a different
size cuff if the range index at the end of the cuff
does not fall into the range specied by the
range stripes.
6) Apply the same steps to the other arm if a
measurement of the other arm is required.
When the cuff is wrapped
*
around the arm, the edge of
the cuff should be in the range
which is marked “OK”.

Selecting the operation mode: Standard or Triple mode
Select an operation mode
There are two measuring modes to be selected,
Standard mode (standard single measurement) or
Triple mode (automatic triple measurements).
To select Standard mode, slide the switch on the
right side of the device downwards to position «1».
To select Triple mode , slide this switch upwards to
position «3».

Automated triple measurements
In «3» Mode, the WatchBP Ofce Target
device automatically takes three consecutive
measurements at default 15 second intervals.
Because blood pressure constantly uctuates, a
result determined in this way is more reliable than
one produced by a single measurement.

Press the button ON/OFF «140/90» or ON/OFF
«130/80», to select the preferred target value. The
device will then start to inate.
Do not remove the cuff between the measurements.
If one of the individual measurements is
questionable, an extra measurement will be taken
automatically.

Trafc Light Indication in the display
Green light
If both the measured systolic and diastolic blood
pressure values are below the set target values
(140/90 or 130/80), the screen will light in green
with two «OK» signs.
Additionally, the lowest column in the screen
shows the pulse pressure «PP»
11
Red light
If either the measured systolic or diastolic result is
above the set target value (140/90 or 130/80),
the screen will light in red with the difference to
the desired value shown in display as number, e.g.
«+24, +22».

The device stores only the blood pressure values
of the last measurement procedure. To view
the stored values, press the M-button when the
instrument is switched off. The display rst shows
«A» and then the values.
5 seconds later, the display will change and show
the systolic/diastolic difference with the set target
values (140/90 or 130/80), together with the
pulse pressure .
PP (Pulse Pressure)
The WatchBP Ofce Target device provides the pulse
pressure (PP) of the patient: pulse pressure = systolic
- diastolic pressure. Each measurement includes
the calculation of a single PP value. The average
measurement will display the average PP value.
When viewing in Memory mode, the PP value will be
displayed with the systolic/diastolic pressure once
every 5 seconds.

Battery Indicator and Battery change
Low battery
When the batteries are approximately ¾ empty the
battery symbol will ash as soon as the instrument
is switched on (partly lled battery displayed).
Although the instrument will continue to measure
reliably, the batteries need to be replaced soon.
Flat battery – replacement
When the batteries are at, the battery symbol will
ash as soon as the instrument is switched on (at
battery displayed). You cannot take any further
measurements and must replace the batteries.
1) Open the battery compartment at the back of
the instrument by pushing inwards at the two
arrows and pulling out the battery compartment
cover.
2) Replace the batteries – ensure correct polarity as
shown by the symbols in the compartment.
Use 4 new, long-life 1.5V, size AA batteries.
*
Do not use batteries beyond their date of expiry.
