Important
instructions
for obtaining
meaningful
readings
• Important: Blood pressure measurement is not
suitable in cases of serious arteriosclerosis
(hardening of the arteries).
• The pulse display is not suitable for monitoring
the frequency of cardiac pacemakers.
• If you suffer from disorders of heart rhythm,
known as arrythmia, you should only use this
blood pressure monitor in consultation with your
doctor. In certain cases the oscillometric measuring method can produce incorrect readings.
• Pregnant women should only measure their own
blood pressure in consultation with their doctor,
since the readings may be changed by pregnancy.
• You should avoid eating, drinking (alcohol),
smoking and sports before measuring your blood
pressure, as this could affect your blood pressure
level.
• Don’
t move, don’t speak while measurement is
being taken.
• Make yourself comfortable in a chair and relax
before each reading.
• We recommend that you monitor your blood
pressure twice a day, in the morning after getting
up and in the evening after work, or as advised by
your doctor.
• Please remember: Self-measurement is not the
same as medical treatment!
You should never change the dose of medicines
prescribed by your doctor.
